M/25/5'10" [300lbs > 210lbs = 90lbs] (7 months) I still got about 20lbs to lose, but I'm feeling a lot better. I waited like a month to first weigh myself (at 290) which I already had lost a couple pant sizes.

Introduction

Losing weight can be a difficult journey, but with the right tools and approach, it is possible to achieve your goals. One Reddit user, HuppDrums, detailed his inspiring weight loss journey, losing 90lbs in just 7 months through a combination of diet and exercise.

Starting with a One-Meal A Day Diet

HuppDrums detailed that in the first month, he was only eating one meal a day. It's unclear whether it was due to depression or other reasons, but it kickstarted his weight loss journey.

Going Plant-Based

After the first month, HuppDrums decided to go plant-based, which helped him lose a significant amount of weight. He also decreased his portion sizes, eating around 1200-1500 calories a day, and drank lots of water. This change in his diet helped him lose around half of the weight he lost.

Working as a Hod Tender in Masonry

Aside from his diet, HuppDrums also credited his job as a hod tender in masonry as a significant factor in his weight loss journey. He worked up to 2 hours walking on a treadmill at maximum incline each day for a while until it broke, and he had to stop. However, he continued working physically demanding jobs and attributed them to his progress.

Final Thoughts

HuppDrums lost a staggering 90lbs in just 7 months through his commitment to a plant-based diet, portion control, lots of water, and physical activity from working in the masonry industry. While his journey was not without its struggles, it goes to show that with perseverance and dedication, anything is possible. If you're looking to start your weight loss journey, take inspiration from HuppDrums' story and see what works best for you.
