I Lost 11kg/ 24lbs in a Month!

Good morning. So first of all, I really hope you guys are doing okay during this tough situation. I'm from the UK, so I've been in lockdown for about a month now. It's the 1st of May, which is actually my birthday. But as you can see, things have not been going too well for me. I've gained a lot of my weight back. Probably all of my weight. First of all, I would just like to apologize to everyone watching. I feel like I've really let everyone down. There are so many nice comments saying that I've helped them to lose weight. I've motivated people. Just so many positive messages telling me to keep going and I just, I really feel like I've let everyone down, so I just really want to apologise. Hopefully we can get things back on track. I wanted to make all my videos as positive and uplifting as they can be, but I feel like it's important to show that it's not all easy sailing, there will be setbacks, and yeah, it's just how you deal with these setbacks that defines your progress, so yeah. I'm going to weigh myself in a minute just to see what the damage is. So as I say, it's May the 1st, which is my birthday. And one of the gifts I'm going to give myself, if I'm allowed, is hopefully the gift of health. I really want to focus and get back on track this month. I'll keep a video diary just to keep myself on track. I apologise in advance because I'm pretty sure this will turn out to be a long video. But hopefully you can take away some useful points from this video. I'll try to keep it interesting, but yeah, I'm going to weigh myself in a minute. Just to get my start weight for the 1st of May, but in my regards to my weight gain there's no real reason or excuse, it's just one of those things, you know you have stress in your life, things don't go well, and it just turns into a cycle, and it's a self-destructive cycle, so yeah. It's such a shame for me because towards the end of 2019 I was at my lowest weight, I'd gained a lot of confidence, I was going out on dates, I was even seeing a girl way, way out of my league, so this goes to show you. Focus your mind and your body on what you can achieve. But the contrast from the end of 2019 to where I'm at now is just really devastating for me, to be honest. But yeah, I've just lost my focus. It's so hard to get back on track. I keep delaying it and then things spiral out of control. I try to be good and it just never works out and I just get dragged back down. But I've had enough now. It's my birthday. I'm not very happy at the moment, so yeah, I really just want to focus on getting myself back on track and record my progress as we go. So yeah, I'm going to weigh myself now and get my start weight, and hopefully by the end of the month I will be in a lot better situation, but yeah, I'll update you guys as I go along. So yeah, I'm going to weigh myself now, so here goes. Wow, as you can see, I'm exactly 17 stone. Which is, well I'll leave the equivalent on the screen if you're still using the outdated. kilograms and pounds, but yeah, 17 stone. Complete disaster, so we'll just do it again just to make sure it's accurate. Not a great start, but I'm excited to get started. But yeah, 17 stone. So I'll update you guys as I go along and hopefully we can lose some of this weight. Good morning guys, so it's been a week since I started my weight loss challenge. I've been sticking to my diet really good. My diet has basically just reduced calories. I'm not too worried about the macros and the protein and the carbs and breaking it down. I'm just trying to reduce my calories and exercise a lot more. I've kept my calories really low. Because I'm not at work anymore, because I'm isolating, I'm not really too worried about the types of food that I'm eating, just reducing the calories, because the first month, the weight should be easier to lose, and then when you start slowing down your weight loss, then you can focus on the macros and the protein, and splitting up the fruits, different types of fruits But yeah, I'm going to weigh myself now. I apologise if I was a bit down in my introduction to this video. I just felt like I kind of let everyone down. It's my birthday and I was just... I'm not very happy, so yeah, hopefully I'm in a better place now. I feel like I've lost a lot of weight in my first week, but yeah, let's see the results. 16 stone, 3.2 pounds, yes, I'm very happy with that. I was 17 stone when I started, so yes, I'm really happy with that result. Okay, so I'm really happy with that result. I've lost 10.8 pounds in a week. Obviously, the first week you're going to lose a lot of weight because your body's getting used to the new diet and the exercise. And my diet before I started was absolutely awful. But yeah, hopefully I can continue to lose some more weight during this month of May challenge. I'm feeling a lot more positive, a lot better with myself. So yeah, I'm going to keep at it. But yeah, I'm going to keep my calories low, increase my exercise. And I'll update you guys as I go along. Okay, so I'm going to weigh myself now. Hopefully it's a good result. So yeah, let's see. 15 stone, 13.6. I'm very happy with that now that I'm in the 15 stone category, but yeah I'll leave the equivalents on the screen now. Extremely happy with that. So I've just weighed myself and I've lost 3.6 pounds which I'm really happy about. I'm now in the 15 stone category. You want to be losing around 2 pounds a week for a good average loss, not too crazy. So 3.6 I'm really happy about. So I have to let you know I had a cheat meal a couple of days ago and I did actually enjoy it. It kind of messed up my progress, my routine. I felt kind of bad after eating it but yeah I did succumb to a cheat meal. Despite my cheat meal I kept on my exercise, I didn't let it ruin my week, and the results are that I've lost 3.6 pounds, so I'm really happy with that. I won't be having any more cheat meals for the rest of May, because it wasn't even enjoyable for me. I'm not sure why I had it, I was just getting a bit hungry, I kind of cracked, I just finished a... Major one hour of weight session plus a 20 minute run so I figured it wasn't too bad and at the end of the day it's not too bad to allow yourself a cheat meal. But yeah the real test will be next week so hopefully I can lose a couple more pounds next week and we'll see how it goes. But as always I'll update you guys as I go along and I'll see you in a bit. Okay guys so I'm about to weigh myself now so yeah let's see how it goes. So yeah it's 15 stone 9.4. I am very happy with this result, exactly the result I wanted, so yeah, really happy with that. Good morning guys, so another week has passed, I've just weighed myself and I'm 15 stone 9.2 pounds. I'm really happy with the results, I've lost a total of 4.2 pounds since last week, so yeah, I'm feeling really good, I'm really happy with that result. Again, my diet hasn't been perfect but I've just been focused on So yeah, I'm feeling really good, I've got just over a week left of this month challenge so the next time we weigh in it will be the last weigh in and we'll see how much I've lost over the month, but yeah, I'm really happy with the progress so far, I've been not eating too healthy but I'm not too worried about that because when you're starting from such a heavy weight, the main thing to focus on is the calorie intake and calorie outtakes, but for the first month you don't have to go too mad with the macros. As you will see from my diet, which has not been perfect, but it has produced quite good results in my opinion. I really hope all of you have enjoyed this week by week kind of update weigh-in situation. I'm in a really good place at the moment and a really good starting place to go into June. So yeah, I'll see you guys next week where hopefully I will have lost some more weight. Good morning guys, so it's the 1st of June. It's been exactly a month since I started this fitness challenge. I started at a massive 17 stone on the 1st of May, so hopefully we have lost some weight. So yeah, let's have a look. So I'm just weighing myself and I'm extremely happy with the result. I've lost a total of one stone, 10 pounds, which is 24 pounds or 10.8 kilograms in a month. Yes, I'm really happy with the result. It's better than I could have hoped for, to be honest. I wasn't expecting to lose this much. But yeah, I'm now in a place that is a lot better than when I started. So hopefully it comes across in the video and you can see some of the weight loss. Um, hopefully this Simpsons t-shirt is visibly a bit better now. Obviously I'm still overweight, I have a long way to go to hopefully reach my goals. I'll be showing the before and after photos and videos at the end of this video, just to see the comparison. So I've really enjoyed these weekly weigh-in videos, it's really motivating for me, so let me know if you've enjoyed it and you would like me to continue with this style of video. But yeah, a month ago, on the first of May on my birthday, I was in a really bad place. I was the heaviest I've ever been. I was quite down to be honest and I feel like I'm in a lot better place now which links nicely to my next point. Some of you may have noticed I've started to rebrand my channel it will no longer be called Billy the Titan because to be honest I've never really liked the channel name it's a bit too long it's a bit too silly in my opinion so yes I'll be changing my channel name to Billy Brendan which is actually my name because now I feel is the perfect time I've restarted my journey I've kind of Soft rebooting myself, so yeah, I'm in a completely different mindset and I really want to make so many more videos to try and help as many people as I can. So yeah, I'll be rebranding to Billy Brandon shortly after this video. and if you're interested in what I ate during this month The next video will be a video about my full diet for the month of May, every single thing that I ate during the month of May to lose nearly 11 kg, that's 24 pounds, or one stone 10 pounds. I'm rebranding the channel, I'm refocusing my mind, and hopefully you guys will enjoy this video and enjoy the future videos I'm working on right now. So yes, please enjoy the before and after photos now, and I'll see you in the next video.
