The Beginning of Weight Concerns

auruspex was hovering around 274lbs and was unhappy with his body image. He had tried losing weight several times, and lost 100lbs and gained back 70lbs. Before he turned 30, he decided to get down to a healthy weight the right way.

How The Apple Watch Helped

auruspex managed to achieve his weight goal with the help of an Apple Watch, careful dieting, and daily exercising. The watch's gamification of fitness allowed him to achieve small goals every day and earn achievements. He warns that the Apple Watch might not work for everyone and encourages people to find what works for them.

Lessons Learned

Consistency is the key to all weight loss endeavors. A pure crash/starvation diet is not maintainable, and if one goes too hardcore, crashing can be all the more significant when it happens. In addition to dieting, exercise is essential to feel more energetic and happy.

The Transformation

auruspex's weight loss journey transformed him from wearing XXL shirts to smalls, dropping size 44 pants to size 31. Losing 124lbs, he feels more energetic and happy than ever.

Conclusion

Auruspex's journey is a testament to finding what motivates oneself to lose weight and gain a healthy body image. Consistency, mindful dieting, and exercising daily lead to incredible results. Everyone is different, and what works for one person might not work for another. Losing weight and maintaining a healthy body is essential.
