Introduction

Losing weight requires commitment and dedication. A Reddit user, skohage, shared his incredible weight journey, losing 64 pounds in just six months. Let's take a deeper look into his progress, motivation, and routine.

Motivation

Skohage shared that he used to brush off the importance of losing weight for shallow reasons such as 'life's too short to worry about a diet' or 'I'm not that unhealthy!' However, he soon realized how irrational his thinking was and made the decision to lose the excess weight.

Routine

The Reddit user did not follow a strict diet but focused on eating fewer calories, staying under 1700 cal/day, which he tracked with the MyFitnessPal app. It proved to be a sustainable and efficient method for him to shed those unwanted pounds.

Progress

Skohage lost 64 pounds in six months, averaging a weight loss of 2.46 pounds per week. His BMI started at 32.9, which is the threshold for obesity, and currently stands at 27.3, still above the healthy range. However, he is well on his way to achieving a healthy body weight.

Conclusion

Skohage's weight journey is an excellent example of how simple changes in one's lifestyle can lead to significant weight loss. He found what worked for him and stuck with it, which allowed him to lose an impressive 64 pounds in six months. This serves as an inspiration to anyone who is looking to shed some pounds; it's never too late to start and see a positive change in one's life.
