Introduction

A Reddit user has shared his incredible 14-month journey from 225 lbs to 173 lbs, and then bulking up to 183lbs. The 17-year-old achieved this without crash diets or intense exercise but by focusing on caloric restriction and maintaining a positive mindset.

Caloric Restriction & Mindful Eating

The teenager mainly stayed on track by logging every meal in a food diary and planning his meals in advance. This helps him keep track of his calorie and nutrient intake. He also had to stay mindful while eating in order to prevent overeating. Making small changes in his diet helped him achieve optimal health, including introducing more fruits and vegetables to his diet, and cutting back on unhealthy snacks.

Slow and Steady Progress

The teenager didn't achieve his goal in a day or week, but over the course of 14 months. He learned to celebrate small wins, which helped him stay motivated. Consistency was also key in his journey to optimal health.

Importance of Mental Health

The teenager acknowledges the importance of taking care of his mental health throughout the journey. He stresses that success is not just about losing weight, but also about feeling confident and healthy. He encourages others to focus on how they feel in addition to how they look.

Conclusion

This teenager's journey is an excellent example of how being mindful of eating habits and caloric restriction can make a big difference in achieving optimal health. The process takes time, dedication, and patience - but the results are worth it. Anyone can start small and make these lifestyle changes to improve their health.
