Introduction

Reddit user expatfirepro shares his inspiring weight journey after quitting alcohol for two years. With the help of the community, he was able to lose over 30 pounds and build strength.

Two Year Transformation

Expatfirepro's transformation journey started with quitting alcohol two years ago. He went from 200 pounds to 166 pounds in just a year. However, he later realized that he had lost too much weight and decided to bulk up. Over the next year, he gained back the weight and now weighs 183 pounds.

The Importance of Community Support

The subreddit community played a huge role in expatfirepro's weight journey. He was able to find inspiration and encouragement through the community as he went through ups and downs. Additionally, he found support from r/bodyweightfitness as he completed their recommended routine #104.

The Positive Effects of Sobriety

Expatfirepro credits his sobriety as the "keystone habit" that helped him develop other healthy habits, such as exercising and eating well. He notes that life without alcohol is "living life at a lower difficulty level."

Takeaway

Expatfirepro's journey shows that with dedication and support, significant weight loss and strength building are possible, even after age 39. If you're struggling to make healthy choices, consider looking for inspiration and support from a community that shares your goals.
