Introduction

A 30-year-old man called rappakalja shared his impressive 33lbs weight loss progress in a Reddit post that has received over 260 upvotes. He explained that he had been lurking on weight loss subreddits for two years and used them as a constant source of inspiration.

The Diet

Rappakalja stated that he cut his carb intake significantly during his weight loss journey. However, he did not count calories, but rather tried to eat enough to grow stronger. Later in the progress, he started to eat more and gained a few pounds back. Overall, his basic rule was to eat in a calorie deficit.

The Exercise

Rappakalja started his journey by doing crossfit and running. Later he added a few other things that he liked, such as squats, burpees, and ring dips. He said in the thread that he enjoyed the working out part of losing weight. Still, it is essential to note that just working out alone will not lead to weight loss. Diet also plays a critical role.

Conclusion

The journey from overweight to a healthier body and lifestyle is never an easy one. However, rappakalja's progress serves as an inspiration for those who are struggling to achieve their weight loss goals. As he stated in the thread, finding something you enjoy doing and consistent work is the key to success. We hope that rappakalja's successful journey motivates others and helps them to stay committed to a healthier lifestyle.
