A Reddit user has been going viral for his unorthodox weight loss journey. In the past 1.5 years, he lost 31 kilograms while still indulging in “outside“ food on weekends. An inspiring post features before-and-after photos showing the dramatic transformation of the 28-year-old, who started at 120 kg and now weighs 89 kg. His face is masked with emojis, but the journey speaks volumes.
In his post, he shared his secret: abstinence from a strict diet of vegetarian food during the week, limiting himself to only 2000 calories with at least 120 grams of protein daily. During weekends, he indulged his love for good food. Thus, it is not only a matter of discipline, but also of sustainability.

Curiosity has sparked in the minds about whether this method is healthy or not. Consultant Nutritionist Rupali Datta said the man‘s approach—steering clear of crash dieting—was commendable. “If he has been able to achieve his health goals while enjoying food, that’s positive. Sustainability is the key,” she said.
However, Datta warned of the protein intake, pointing out that “the amount of protein he is consuming isn‘t good for the long term.“ She added that weight loss should always be gradual and goal-oriented; at least, she would advocate for 500 grams to 1 kg in one week.
Rather, Datta pointed out how one should never go back to the bad old days or unhealthy habits but instead look forward to developing lifelong good habits. Calorie counting is just a part, while the focus must be placed on holistic, sustainable changes in lifestyle.
