BTFC_JigglyMan, a 21-year-old male standing at 5'10 and weighing 170 pounds, began his weight loss journey with the help of the popular subreddit r/loseit. Through his Reddit posts, he shares his ups and downs, his daily successes and failures, and his effective strategies for achieving his goals.
The Journey Begins
BTFC_JigglyMan started with a simple plan; to lose 30 pounds over twenty weeks. He began by limiting his caloric intake and tracked his food intake using MyFitnessPal. He also started working out regularly at the gym, for both cardio and strength training. Initially, he struggled with lethargy and cravings, but he managed to push through and slowly adopt a healthier lifestyle.
Staying Accountable
Posting on r/loseit became an important part of BTFC_JigglyMan's accountability process. He would post daily check-ins and progress photos, and he received continuous encouragement and motivation from the subreddit's supportive community. Seeing himself succeed in small ways, such as the number on the scale dropping or the amount of weight he could lift increasing, kept him motivated and looking forward to each day.
Ups and Downs
Of course, the journey was not always easy for BTFC_JigglyMan. There were times when he struggled with binge-eating and negative self-talk. During these moments, he turned to r/loseit for advice and found solace in the community's understanding and words of motivation. He learned not to beat himself up over small failures, and instead, focus on the bigger picture of his overall progress.
The Result
BTFC_JigglyMan's hard work and dedication paid off. He reached his goal of losing 30 pounds over twenty weeks and even exceeded it by losing an extra 6 pounds. He credits his success to the support and accountability he found on r/loseit, the regular exercise and healthy eating habits he fostered, and his own unwavering determination. His story serves as an inspiration for anyone looking to embark on their own weight loss journey.
