How I lost 35kg (77lbs) - hope this helps redditors who asked me how I did it.

As someone who has lost over 35kg ( 77lbs) in 6 months, this is what I have to say/share/know.

First thing that's really good here is that you have accepted the fact that you are out of shape and you know that you need to do something about it. This is really awesome and will motivate you to start your journey.

  1. Thing is simple, you are losing your weight when you body burns more calories then you consume. (don't need to complicate things here, its simple as it sounds.)
  • So you want to go here https://www.calculator.net/calorie-calculator.html, when you fill your info you will see approx number of how many calories you need daily, and you want to lower it by how much you feel its okay for your. I wouldn't suggest lowering more then 700 calories per day.
  • At the beginning I would suggest you to eat anything you like except sweets. ( I calculated your numbers and you need approx 2600 calories/per day to maintain your weight). What you want to do is extract 700 so eat 1800-1900 calories per day and see how you fell. Note : eat everything even carbs but the only thing to avoid in the beginning is sweets. Get rid of them. Threw everything you have in your house, every candy just give it to someone or get rid of it. I want you to do this for 2 weeks and see how your body responds. If you are loosing weight we want to keep it this way. If your weigh loss is really slow we want go get rid of bread, only bread, you can eat carbs but get rid of BREAD.
  1. TRAINING
  • Training wise, you really don't have to do any training at all to lose weight. You can sit at home on couch and watch Netflix and you will lose weight if you follow STEP 1. But here is the thing. If you don't train you will have week body posture, your inside muscles will be week, you risk having extra skin etc...
  • You don't need to do some killer training's, we want to keep it simple and classic. Classic movements you can do at home and it will take you 15 minutes to do it per day. Squats, Push-ups, crunches, jumping jacks... Since you don't train you can start by doing these movements every other day and at the beginning do as much as you feel comfortable at, and eventually increase your repetitions and duration over time.
  1. Don't feel bad if you ate something you shouldn't have
  • We all have days like this. First 3-6 days, depending on person are the hardest when starting a weight loss journey, but after that your body gets used to a new caloric input and feels okay with it, and you will feel normally after those 3-6 days have passed.
  • In first 3-6 days just do it, there is nothing else to say, do, it's your body, you have to DO IT, nobody can do it instead of you, you didn't get those extra pounds just like that, you won't lose them just like that. Basically first 3-6 days you need to endure it.
  • Lastly even if you ate something you shouldn't have don't be mad, its not over, nothing is going to happen, your weight loss won't restart, the only bad thing that can happen is you will feel little bloated if you ate more then you should have. Next day just continue your journey and enjoy it, you will be proud at the end, you will feel awesome, you will be the best version of yourself and you know that's something you wont.
  1. MOTIVATION
  • Motivation is hard. Motivation can be pain in the ass. But at the end of the day, motivation is inside your head and its the thing that helps you trough this process. Find motivation in stuff you like, find it in sports, girls, movies, other people, just whatever make you motivated do it, think about it, we are all different, we all have other goals, other motivations, find what motivates you and just thing about it, listen to some crazy music you like, watch an awesome movie, talk with girls, be confident and find motivation.
  1. Extra tips that may help you in your journey
  • Eat slow (chew the food, taste it, don't rush it)
  • Drink plenty of water
  • Eat more vegetables and fruits
  • Take a good sleep every night so your body refills
  • Walk - wherever you go walk, if it's close walk, if you go out walk, just walk, walk, walk)
  • Enjoy it - think of this as an experience, not as something you need to do, enjoy the ride and do it at the pace that feels comfortable for you.

This is all I have to say Strangers.

But I will tell you what I know. I know that YOU CAN DO IT.

Take 2 mins, read this and do it, Both you and I know that you can, your family knows that you can, its all about what steps you will take to do it, and how important that is to you.

IMPORTANT
