Introduction
Losing weight can be challenging, but it is rewarding. WHU_Patricles, a 35-year-old man, lost 36 pounds and went down from 228 to 192 pounds. He achieved this remarkable feat, largely due to implementing CICO. His story on Reddit inspired many others to go after their weight loss goals.
Support from the community
WHU_Patricles received tremendous support from fellow users on his Reddit post. Many of them were also on their own weight-loss journeys or maintaining their weight loss. Cenosillicaphobiac's wife recently started tracking her calories and never went over her calorie deficit target in 32 days. This made them excited about the journey ahead. Comments such as 'You guys both look great!' and 'lookin good man, keep it rollin' raised his morale and kept him motivated.
What is CICO?
CICO stands for 'calories in, calories out.' In simple terms, you eat fewer calories than you need to sustain your daily activities. Over time, this creates a calorie deficit, leading to weight loss. WHU_Patricles, together with his wife, started following CICO after having a huge meal in January. He noted that he found it to be reliable and effective.
Things to try
It is never too late to start losing weight. Along with CICO, several other things can help, such as regular exercise, balanced meals, and getting enough sleep. Furthermore, the support of the community, friends, and family members can go a long way in keeping a person motivated. Remember, small and consistent actions can bring about significant changes.
Conclusion
WHU_Patricles' weight loss journey is an inspiration to many who struggle with weight loss. His story shows that losing weight is achievable with commitment, dedication, and following a simple calorie deficit. The support of others, both online and offline, can keep a person from losing hope during tough times. Most importantly, everyone can make progress in losing weight, one small step at a time.
