From Yo-yoing to Yolo-ing

Rileyxradio's weight loss journey was not an easy one. He admits that he has struggled with maintaining his weight for years. However, after reaching below the 200 lb mark and seeing his weight start with a '1XX' instead of a '2XX,' he got his second wind of motivation. He buckled down on a healthier diet, rode his bike more, and hit the gym. These efforts helped him go from 200-180 lbs in six months. From there, he hopes to continue cutting body fat and increasing muscle mass.

Discipline and Effort Pays Off

One thing that rileyxradio cites as the key to his weight loss journey is discipline and effort. He emphasizes the need to apply more discipline and effort in a weight loss routine to achieve desired results faster. By cutting out sugary drinks and minimizing his intake of carbohydrates, he was able to lose a significant amount of weight in a matter of months. Though his weight loss journey isn't over yet, with more concerted effort on weight lifting and cardio, he is optimistic about the future.
