M/30/5'10" a Journey to Lose 34Lbs

The Beginning of the Journey

At 26, this man began to realize the importance of eating healthier and decided to make a change. He started to exercise regularly and chose to cut back his portions at mealtimes. This change slowly but surely began to have an effect on his weight.

Motivation for the Change

The man stated that before he started his journey, he never felt confident enough to approach women. He always felt like his weight was holding him back in every aspect of his life, including his social life. This feeling of inadequacy eventually became the motivation he needed to start making changes.

The Struggle

Despite the motivation, the man admits that it was not an easy journey. There were days when he struggled and felt like giving up. However, he credits the weight loss support groups found online (including on Reddit) for keeping him on track in those moments.

The Turning Point

After 3 to 4 years of making lifestyle changes, the man lost an impressive 34lbs. It was then that he started to notice the difference not only in his weight, but also in the way he felt about himself. Every day he felt more confident and more willing to chase his goals. He started to get the 'look' he always wanted from the opposite sex.

Takeaway Message

This journey is a prime example of the impact that a healthy lifestyle change can have on an individual's confidence and overall well-being. If you are struggling with weight loss, don't give up! The road might be bumpy, but the end result is worth it. Find your motivation, create a support system and persevere.
