Introduction

Tizzaylus, a 31-year-old man, shares his weight loss journey on reddit. He went from 287 to 185 pounds over the course of 6 years. However, it wasn't just a drop in weight that motivated him - he also fell in love with working out.

Keto wasn't for him

Tizzaylus started off by following the popular ketogenic diet, but eventually grew tired of it. He found a love for basketball and started playing frequently. He also started eating only one meal a day, which worked for him. This combination of changes led to a significant weight loss.

Adding weight lifting to the mix

After maintaining his weight for a while, Tizzaylus decided to add weight lifting to his routine. He fell in love with the process and challenge of lifting weights, and it has become a big part of his life. It's not just about losing weight anymore - it's about challenging himself and seeing progress in his strength and fitness.

Positive comments and encouragement

The reddit post received positive comments and encouragement from others, who recognized the hard work and dedication that went into Tizzaylus' weight loss journey. Comments ranged from congratulatory messages to questions about his process.

Lessons learned

Tizzaylus' story reminds us that losing weight is not a one-size-fits-all process. It's important to find what works for us as individuals, whether it's through diet, exercise, or a combination of both. Adding weight lifting is also a great way to not only lose weight but improve overall health and fitness. We can learn from Tizzyalus' experience and try out new things for ourselves to see what works best.
