Introduction
Reddit user jonny_D_N shares his 90 pound weight loss journey over three years through his post on the Reddit platform. In his post, he reveals how he tried new activities and foods along his weight loss journey, reflecting that his journey was not a one-size-fits-all formula.
Varied Activities and Hobbies
Jonny_D_N tried different activities to find what he enjoyed: started with cardio, then lifting, chopping wood, playing soccer, and rock climbing. He says that he gets bored easily and changes his hobbies roughly every six months or so. The major takeaway is that one cannot commit to an activity or hobby they don't enjoy. The most important point is to be active.
Switching to Healthier Diets
Jonny_D_N made a little change in his diet but stayed consistent in avoiding sugar. He opted for vegetables, carrots, hummus, broccoli, and celery, to name a few. He suggests watching sugar intake and avoiding sweet treats or chocolates. He argues that one cannot completely rely on diets, but it must be a complement to your activity plan.
The Power of Beard
The Reddit community had amusing comments about Jonny_D_N's beard. One commented that he lost over 100 pounds if he subtracted the weight of the beard. In contrast, others argued that his beard had produced ludicrous amounts of testosterone, resulting in muscle mass, and to add to that, the beard only kept growing bigger as he lost weight.
Wrapping Up
The post is an inspiration for those willing to start their weight loss journey. The key point is to find physical activities that you enjoy and tweak your diet to make it healthier. One does not have to commit to one thing; variety is key. Avoid sugar, exercise more and always be active. Find your motivation - your beard or anything that fuels your desire to be better. Go out there and try things out for yourself.
