After gaining ‘sympathy weight’ and drinking around 60 beers a week for almost two years, a Reddit user, Josh-1209, finally decided to take up the challenge of shedding excess weight in COVID lockdown. In just four short months, he lost 28 pounds, and finally began feeling good for the first time since the pandemic began.

Josh-1209 used to drink heavily until he 50 days California sober during his weight loss journey. He pushed himself to exercise at least an hour every day without tracking calories. Josh-1209 didn’t find tracking calories useful due to the time it imposed on him. He later on opted just to eat normally as long as he didn’t overeat.

Amazingly, this transformation was successful in such a short period of time. It's worth noting that there is no secret formula or shortcut to the success in the journey Josh-1209 went through. The secret lies in a combination of mental strength and hard work.

Many Reddit users praised Josh-1209 for his willpower and determination. One mentioned that he noticed Josh-1209 looking 10 years younger, while another asked how it was possible to achieve such an astonishing improvement. In response, Josh-1209 simply replied that he was committed and determined to change his habits and his life.

In conclusion, shedding excess weight can be a challenging process, but with proper planning and determination, it can be a rewarding journey. Josh-1209’s story shows that it can be achieved in as little as four months without tracking calories but rather committing to a healthier lifestyle. Why not try it for yourself and see where it may take you?
