Hi so I'd like to start by introducing myself, I am a 21-year-old male and currently weigh 105kg at a height of 183cm (6ft) and my name let's just call me Wolf 😅 for no reason.
-----------------My story (if you wanna read)--------------
I began my weight loss journey back in October 2019 stepping on a scale for the first time and realizing I was 95kg and knew that I had to change cause my confidence in my appearance was rock bottom, I started off like anyone else, doing some research and found out that a caloric deficit was all I needed, so by just doing that (added in with 1 hour walks/jogs) and lowering my intake I manage to lose 1.5kg on a good week and 0.5kg on a bad one which for me made me happy cause I was seeing results instantly, after a year (2020) I was down too 78kg by June, I loved my look and my body and so when I reached my goal of 75kg I started to relax a bit and found a job (fast food sector) without me realizing I was back on a high calorie intake and I stopped doing any measurements and exercises, and entered as I like too call it the blind bulking years 😅😅😅 ( by the way I know all of this is my own fault, I destroyed my own body through stupid decisions).
From then to now I didn't know what damage I've done but I did know it was ganna be scary cause once I started to hate my appearance I just got more detached from reality that I actually put on weight (basically I went delulu crazy 🤣) until recently 1 month ago when I told myself enough it enough and stepped on scales and it read 105Kg which granted it made me depressed that I've went back and plus some more but also it made me more motivated to change course and avert any more weight gain. Ik and I knew I could not completely go back to my old diet cause it was unrealistic what I was doing (I didn't mention it above but back then when I was on a diet I forced myself from 2,000 cal to 1,500 cal and to 1,000 cal and some days no food which ik its catastrophic and was, I did have friends and family that told me what I was doing was wrong but I got mad at them for telling me how to control my own diet, now ik they where right all along)
------------What I've been doing recently-----------
So what I've been doing for the past month/months is still sticking to some of my bad habits (at the moment ive nearly cut all of them out) and I've slowly began to introduce smoothies into my diet (not the unhealthy I think 😅 basically I take some cucumber, kiwi, them sour/bitter apples, cherry tomatoes, and other vegetables and fruits with oatmeal/coconut milk and just blend it which rn I'm experimenting on the right combination to make it even more nice) this has already made improvements such as to my bowel movements and I don't feel as hungry after drinking it. Also by watching some fitness people this has and is motivating me even more (which psychologically if I surround myself with fitness ppl I will and should gravitate to them) in terms of my family they didn't think I could do it when I started my first diet I was laughed at, not joking, and they don't think I can do it now too. I want too and will prove then wrong. My first thyme was weight loss, my thyme now is yes weight loss again but muscle gain too, and from what ive read it's easier to gain muscle when a bit larger. Ive also been doing daily work out of about 30 minutes, focused on the chest and abs area, but I do use an exercise bike and a rowing machine time to time. This has improved my confidence a little bit and is motivating me too keep going.
-----------Questions---------
I have a few questions if anyone can answer me that would be great,
So i've just bought Diet Whey the strawberry flavor (hopefully I added the image of it) and was wondering is it a scam? Was my investment worth it? Is the company a joke or no? Cause I want to introduce some exercise by using this app that downloaded and by going through some work out plans, and the powder well in my mind will help me get more protein into my diet which hopefully will help me gain muscle build.
Also I've noticed progress is slow, is this normal when losing weight the second time?
Is it possible to gain muscle and lose fat?
I know this Reddit is for losing weight but, how do you gain muscle or well any advice for it without going to gym?
Is what I'm doing stupid? Or am I on the right track?
The reason I'm doing this is so that I could bring back some control into my life that I lost and to feel confident in my skin, and for posting this at least I can share a part of my journey with some random ppl online who I don't know 😅😅
If you have any more questions feel free to DM me or I can answer under this post.
------IF you made it this far THANK YOU for reading and this is my first sorta doing something like this so excuse me if my writing is a mess ahaha------
