90-Day Body Transformation: What Really Worked?

Summary

After starting a 90-day fitness challenge at 84.6 kg, the speaker discovered that motivation alone isn't enough for weight loss; making the process easier is crucial. A key tool was the Ninja Creami, which transformed protein shakes into low-calorie ice cream treats. For exercise, the speaker aimed to burn 1,000 calories daily by making it fun, like playing games on a treadmill. An S-tier item, the treadmill, consistently burned over 400 calories per hour with an incline, supplemented by smaller activity boosts throughout the day. Less effective were the wellness ball and under-desk elliptical, deemed B-tier due to low calorie burn relative to time spent. The vibrating mat and Luminette glasses failed to improve sleep, with the speaker realizing that sleep quality improved naturally by focusing on weight loss, healthy eating, and fitness. Weight loss, especially cutting fat, stopped snoring, and improved sleep score to near perfect. Volume eating, focusing on high-volume, low-calorie foods like fruits and Greek yogurt, was an S-tier strategy for managing hunger. Intermittent fasting, specifically a 6-hour eating window, combined with volume eating, proved highly effective for sustained calorie deficits. Football training was also a significant activity, despite an injury. Finally, DEXA and V02 max scans confirmed a transformation from 21% body fat to 13.2% and from 'fair' to 'excellent' fitness, dropping to 72.2 kg.
