Introduction

PolarBearSaid, a 26-year-old man standing at 6'6", shared his weight loss journey on Reddit, inspiring many with his progress. In this article, we'll explore how he lost 100 pounds and the simple steps he took to achieve it.

His Approach

PolarBearSaid's approach involved gradually transitioning his diet to be healthier. He began by giving up sugary drinks and most sugar altogether before moving on to cooking healthy dinners low in carbs. After a month of this, he started eating healthy breakfasts and packing a healthy low-carb lunch, while still eating whatever he wanted for lunch. By focusing on transitioning his diet to be healthier, he was able to eat in smaller portions and didn't count calories.

Milestone Goals

PolarBearSaid set milestone goals for himself instead of focusing solely on his ultimate weight loss goal of 225 pounds. These goals included reaching 400, 380, 350, 330, 310, and now 280 pounds. By focusing on goals that were in reach, he could easily track his progress and stay motivated.

Exercise is Not the Main Focus

Interestingly, PolarBearSaid didn't do any exercise in the first 60 pounds he lost. He only started doing light exercise, like walking to and from work, after that. Losing weight, in his opinion, is mainly a result of diet. Exercise can help, but it's not the main focus.

Conclusion

PolarBearSaid's weight loss journey, which he shared on Reddit, is an inspiration to many. His simple approach of gradually transitioning to a healthier diet, focusing on milestone goals, and not relying on exercise is testimony that small, positive changes to one's lifestyle can have a big impact on one's health.
