The Journey
Otaat, the user, shares his story of his rough year and how he was near 200lbs, which could have been devastating. Fortunately, his roommate, who is a gym bro, talked him into going seriously with him. After a few months, he lost 6 pounds. Though it may not seem much, it gave him much more confidence.
The Best Thing He Ever Did
Truly, the best thing Otaat ever did was to take his weight loss journey seriously. He started running when the weather was nice, which is a hobby he has always loved. Now, he looks and feels better.
Never Give Up

Conclusion
Weight loss journeys may look daunting, but Otaat's story shows us that even small weight loss can offer huge confidence gains. We should do it for our mental and physical health and never give up even if we fell off the path. It might mean the difference between a rough day or a rough year and a great year.
