Introduction

A Reddit user, Retsgo, shared his victorious 100-day keto journey of burning fat while maintaining his weight without cheat days on his post. His story inspired many and received hundreds of upvotes and comments.

Diet

Retsgo's daily diet consists of eating a lot of fat/protein and staying below 30g of carbs per day. He skips breakfast, has protein-style lunch, and for dinner, he cooks protein in butter with some green veggies. Retsgo eats more or less depending on his hunger without calculating the calories in or out. He is strict on what he eats but allows himself to drink alcohol on the weekends.

Workout

Retsgo goes to the gym for 2-3 days a week, doing low rep, heavy weight workouts. He splits his workout routine as chest/back/traps on Monday, legs/lower back on Tuesday, and biceps/triceps/shoulders on Thursday. Each body part gets four workouts with each workout having four sets of five reps. For each set, he picks a starting weight and goes up by 5 lbs for the next set unless it is too light, then he goes up more. He recommends having a workout buddy spot you to lift heavier safely.

Tips

Retsgo credits his success to the keto lifestyle, his discipline, and consistency. He regularly visits Keto's subs for motivation and support. He advises anyone who wants to start their weight journey to be patient, focus on the process, listen to your body, and be kind to yourself. Experiment with different diets and workouts and find what works best for you. Most of all, stay committed and never give up.

Conclusion

Retsgo's keto journey is a reflection that with discipline and consistency, one can achieve their weight loss and fitness goals. His story provides insights and tips that can help anyone who wants to start their fitness journey. However, it is essential to consult a healthcare professional before starting any new diet and exercise regimen.
