Introducing Volzear’s Weight Loss Journey

Meet Volzear, who has made remarkable strides on his weight journey. In just 12 months, he shed 165lbs, reducing his weight from 390lbs to 225lbs. His strategy? Casual calorie counting and being more social. According to his Reddit post, it wasn’t always easy, but it was definitely rewarding.

Learning to Control Appetite

A lot of the challenge for Volzear was learning to control his appetite, changing how he thought about food, and keeping his mind focused on his goals. He restricted himself from consuming anything more than 1500 calories daily. He also cut out soda and almost completely stopped eating sweets. Instead, he drank a lot of water and focused on not exceeding his caloric goal.

Volzear’s Take on Nicotine and Vaping

For anyone struggling with hunger pangs, Volzear recommended smoking/vaping. Nicotine helps in reducing the appetite. Whenever he felt hungry, he would smoke, vape and drink some water to keep his mind off food until it was time to eat. He emphasized that if you’re genuinely hungry, eat something small, and it will help tremendously.

The Benefits of Exercise on Weight Loss

Being more social was also part of Volzear’s strategy for weight loss. Often, when he found himself alone at home, he would indulge in junk food. However, by being more social and interacting with people, he avoided this. He also incorporated exercise in his journey, and the results speak for themselves. Volzear has become a “superhero” who can now run farther, faster, jump higher and lift more. His self-confidence has also skyrocketed.

Conclusion

For anyone aiming to lose excess weight, Volzear’s story serves as an inspiration. His approach of casual calorie counting and increased socializing proves that weight loss journeys don’t have to be a painful and intense process. Results are achievable through consistent efforts over time. If he could do it, so can you.
