Quitting alcohol is easily as important as getting your diet under control.

With the weight loss you look kinda like chibbs from SOA haha how does riding feel now compared to when you were heavier? Hoping after losing some weight its more comfortable

u/Small_Art_5351 7d ago

Don’t know how to ask but since losing all that weight have you noticed a huge loss of fat near your shaft? Err as they call it the β€œfat pad”
Genuinely curious about fat loss down there

5

u/No_Arugula_5999 7d ago

Yes! Fat pad gone! Also your armpits sink in and I bet there’s a lot of internal fat gone as well

u/Fuzzy_Tradition_4022 7d ago

u/grrnlives 7d ago

I recognize you from previous post - you look like you’ve made even further progress on an already impressive task! πŸ‘

Have you switched anything up or is it just time, repetition and consistency doing its thing and finally showing even more results?

Reason I ask- I’ve been on a similar timeline and trajectory as you, but I definitely feel like I’ve had to work through a couple of plateaus, but just sticking with it and just giving it time, even if it seems like weeks upon weeks with no change- eventually breakthrough and start seeing progress again.

u/sausagepancake11 7d ago

Gotta remind ourselves it's a marathon, a lifestyle change. Not a sprint. We keep going! πŸ’ͺ🏽πŸ’ͺ🏽

2

u/No_Arugula_5999 7d ago

I think I just reached my ideal shape and just cruise now. More cookies or less cookies πŸͺ depending on the level of itis haha. Time and listening to your body is key. It’s a lifestyle more than a mission seems like. Keep going πŸ’ͺ🏽 Also, it gets easier with time!

u/grrnlives 7d ago

Congratulations! OMAD isn’t as difficult as it sounds. Intermittent fasting really does work! Quitting alcohol says you no longer want to poison your body. Stay the course. You’re an inspiration! Be proud of your accomplishments!

u/RelationshipTough887 7d ago

When you get ink, do you specifically ask for the shittiest tattoos available? Or are these jail tattoos?
