Introduction

Losing weight is never easy, but with the right mindset, dedication, and strict routine, it can be achieved. This is true for this Reddit user Mccoog40, who successfully lost 30lbs of weight within 4.5 months.

The Journey

Mccoog40 started his weight loss journey on January 10th this year, with an initial weight of 222lbs. His routine started with a 21-day vegan diet, followed by a strict limitation to lean meats, complex carbs, and veggies. He also limited his fruit intake due to its high sugar content.

The Routine

To complement his diet, he started with simple exercises like jogging and bodyweight exercises like push-ups, pull-ups, sit-ups, burpees, and squats. Mccoog40 also supplemented his routine with a boot camp-style class once a week. As his endurance increased, he started jogging longer distances, tracking his distance and time.

The Results

Through perseverance and discipline, Mccoog40 was able to run a 10k in 66 minutes and complete the Spartan Beast race at 192lbs, which was his target weight. His BMI is now 28.4, and his overall health has significantly improved.

Conclusion

Mccoog40's journey is a testament that weight loss can be achieved with the right mindset, dedication, and routine. Everyone's journey is different, and what works for him may not work for others. However, with enough patience and perseverance, anyone can achieve their weight loss goals. So be inspired, find the right routine, and go on your own weight loss journey.
