The Beginning of the Journey
SoccerDevil, a 20-year-old male, started his cutting journey at 158lbs. He found that he had been eating too much, specifically snacking on unhealthy foods at night. In order to change this, he began counting his calories and trying to hit a caloric deficit.
Seeking Advice and Support from the Community
SoccerDevil turned to the Reddit community for advice and support. He shared his starting weight, height, age, and current goal. The community was supportive, and some provided suggestions for his diet and workouts. However, he emphasized that what worked for him might not work for everyone.
The Progress and Setbacks
SoccerDevil made significant progress towards his goal of cutting. As he continued to work on his diet and exercise, he found that he was feeling more energized and less bloated. He even posted a celebratory update when he hit a new low weight. Though he also faced setbacks, such as giving in to cravings or not seeing as much progress as he would have preferred.
The Importance of Patience and Consistency
SoccerDevil emphasized that his journey has required patience, consistency, and a willingness to try different methods. He had to adjust his calorie intake and workout routine to find what worked best for his body. Additionally, he found it helpful to have a group of people to talk to and share his progress with.
Encouraging Others to Find What Works for Them
SoccerDevil's journey is a reminder that weight loss is not a one-size-fits-all solution. It takes time, effort, and a willingness to adapt to find what works for each individual. He encourages others to experiment with different diets and exercise routines to find what will help them achieve their goals, rather than simply following what works for others.
