38Lbs Weight Loss Journey in 7 Months for a 28 Year Old Male

Introduction

Blinkskij, a 28-year-old male, shares his weight loss journey on Reddit. He has lost 38lbs over 7 months through a combination of exercise and dietary changes.

The Journey

Blinkskij started his fitness journey in mid-late September of 2019 by working out for the first time in his life, accompanied by a more careful approach to food intake. He goes to spin classes for cardio, accompanied by weight lifting, for around an hour. He also uses free weights and machines. If he can't find an available spin class, he replaces it with the treadmill and/or rowing machine. He lost some weight from getting a more active job, but working out is the main factor.

Setbacks

Blinkskij was hit by a car while crossing the street and had to lay off hard workouts for a few weeks. He also postponed getting back "on the horse" for a bit longer. Injuries can feel like a huge setback, but he kept going and eventually grew motivated by the huge difference between his earliest and latest photos.

Encouragement

Fellow Reddit users have commented to encourage Blinkskij to keep going, emphasizing the progress he's made and the positive changes in both his physical appearance and mental health. Blinkskij himself said that the uplifting comments and feeling better than before were his motivation to continue.

Conclusion

Blinkskij is still striving to reach his fitness goals, but his weight loss journey so far proves that exercise and dietary changes can make a significant difference in a person's life. His story is a reminder to never give up, even in the face of obstacles and difficulties, and to find the motivation to start working towards a healthier and happier lifestyle.
