The Journey Begins

Dapper-Ad-1685 decided to take action for his daughter's sake and began his weight loss journey. Through counting his calories and heavy lifting, he shed 40lbs in just 12 months.

Choosing the Right Methods

CICO, or "calories in, calories out," was a key component of Dapper-Ad-1685's weight loss journey. By tracking his food intake and ensuring he burned more calories than he consumed, he was able to steadily lose weight. He also incorporated heavy lifting into his routine, a form of exercise known for increasing muscle mass and boosting metabolism.

A Newfound Sobriety

In addition to losing weight, Dapper-Ad-1685 also celebrated 12 months of sobriety during his journey. Alcohol can contribute to weight gain, so cutting it out of his life likely played a role in his success.

Feeling Better than Ever

With 40lbs gone and his health on the upswing, Dapper-Ad-1685 is feeling better than he has in years. He still has some work to do, but he's motivated to keep going.

Try it Out for Yourself

Dapper-Ad-1685's story is an inspiration for anyone looking to make a change in their life. Try out CICO and heavy lifting for yourself and see what kind of progress you can make. And remember, it's never too late to start.
