Setting the Scene

TILied2U, a 30-year old male with a height of 6 feet tall, began his weight loss journey at 255 pounds. He posted once before and shared his progress again, this time showcasing comparison photos of himself wearing the same shorts. He aimed to match the pose and lighting of the original as much as possible, and the difference looked remarkable.

The Journey

Between the two photos, TILied2U lost 20 pounds, which he attributed to CICO or Calories In, Calories Out. He counted calories daily - keeping his intake at around 1,500-1,600 calories a day. He also consumed foods that filled him up and had less calories but kept him satiated for longer periods. He also mentioned drinking a lot of water, avoiding unhealthy snacks, and going for walks almost every day.

TILied2U received a lot of positive comments from the Reddit community, who celebrated his weight loss journey with him. Comments pointed out his great comparison picture taking skills and encouraged others to follow his example. The supportive comments he received played a crucial role in his success and continued motivation.

His support system on Reddit was also critical. Those looking to start their weight loss journey can keep his example in mind, remember to be consistent, seek support and understand that weight loss takes time, patience and hard work.
