Introduction

Meet Zehdari, a Reddit user who has accomplished what many people only dream of - losing 70 pounds in just one year.

Diet & Exercise

Zehdari's weight loss journey began with cutting out fast food and only drinking water. However, the majority of his success came from running every day. Starting slow with alternating between running and walking, Zehdari eventually built up to running 3-4 miles a day with a 7-minute mile pace. Unfortunately, he suffered from multiple kneecap dislocations over the summer and had to undergo surgery, slowing his progress. Recently, he has started going to the gym regularly.

Support from Reddit Community

The Reddit community has not only supported Zehdari throughout his journey but also cheered him on with compliments on his appearance and hard work. Despite some not-so-flattering comments, the majority of comments focused on the positive changes he made for his health.

Takeaways

Zehdari's journey shows that success in weight loss can come from dedication and consistency in diet and exercise. Cutting out unhealthy foods and committing to a daily exercise routine can lead to significant weight loss results. While it is essential to listen to your body and take necessary breaks if injuries occur, it is also important to get back into a routine as soon as possible, to avoid losing progress. Zehdari is a fantastic example of how dedication and support can help achieve long-term weight loss goals.

Conclusion

Zehdari's weight loss journey is not just about shedding 70 pounds - it's about transforming oneself physically and mentally. His positive attitude and dedication to his goals are contagious, and we hope his journey inspires others to embark on their own weight loss journeys. With dedication, consistency, and a supportive community, one can achieve their long-term weight loss goals.
