Two birthdays apart ! If i can do it, anyone can.

SW : 115kg, CW: 88.5kg, GW: 82 kg, M30 :) I am a shy guy on the web who doesn't like to post pics of myself. I am doing this not to showoff, But only to push and encourage people to adopt healthy lifestyle including regular exercise and IF. I am turning 30 today any spent my 20's being ashamed of my body. Never asked the girl I loved out because of my body. Last year I decided I had to do something and started IF religiously ..Took me six months to be consistent. Started with 16:8 slowly made my way to OMAD. I thought it was the easiest way to shed weight...Don't shed a drop sweat and just abstain from eating , easy breezy isn't it ;) ? But it was the hardest thing to begin. Remember spiting out the piece of cake I had in my mouth to thrash bin just to stick to my fasting. After few days of starting I fell in love with physical activity (fitbit helped me a lot) ..started tracking steps, then calories . Lost around six kilos very quickly initially, now i know its water weight. People started to notice. And within a bling of an eye, four months later, celebrating by birthday from being BMI36.5 to 27. ​ This sub along with podcasts from Huberman Lab, YT videos of Jason Fung, Dr Eric Berg kept me pushing. I am conscious and I still have quite some way to go and more importantly maintain this lifestyle (which is the hardest thing).I am still having this thought in my mind as I write this, what If I slip up and go back where I was all these days .. I will be lurking this sub everyday for keeping me motivated. ​ Wrapping this up with a BIG THANK YOU and wishing everyone a great year ahead. https://preview.redd.it/l4q15asmf44a1.jpg?width=768&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=e7215026598c30dd28fa228c25897f593be163ad https://preview.redd.it/ahumzismf44a1.jpg?width=946&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=c53ef6342d14dc31b1ce66508f39b8877eff0ddb https://preview.redd.it/svuoarsmf44a1.jpg?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=302efea1e7f3ca55769261b71004fcae750cff0e https://preview.redd.it/vej1ocsmf44a1.jpg?width=1536&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=f1a6eeadeaf8de0ee123106fb05b70aeeb37d8d5 ​
