For years, I have been struggling with personal, social, spiritual, and professional responsibilities. In the process, I often neglected my health. Slowly, my weight crept up, reaching 112 kg, far beyond what I felt was healthy for me. At 173 cm tall, I knew this was not just about appearance it was about my overall well-being and energy levels.
On Dec 1, 2024, as I reflected on my journey and goals, it struck me that to truly lead and inspire others, I must first take care of myself. My health is the foundation of everything I aim to achieve. Whether it’s mentoring entrepreneurs, connecting with my community, or deepening my spiritual practice, I need a fit and energetic body to give my best.
That’s when I decided to take up a 90 day weight loss challenge. My aim is not just to lose weight but to transform my lifestyle. This challenge is about becoming the best version of myself, mentally and physically. It’s a commitment to myself a promise that I will take charge of my health and well-being.
Math Idea
Setting the Goal
I currently weigh 112 kg, and my target weight is 70 kg. This means I need to lose 42 kg in total.
Calculating Weight Loss Per Day
Since I have 90 days to achieve this, I divided 42 kg by 90 days. This shows I need to lose about 0.47 kg every day.
Weight Loss Per Week
To understand this weekly, I multiplied 0.47 kg by 7 days. This means I would need to lose approximately 3.29 kg every week.
Caloric Deficit Required
Losing 1 kg of body weight requires a deficit of about 7,700 calories. To lose 0.47 kg in a day, I would need a calorie deficit of 3,619 calories every single day. For a week, I would need a total deficit of 25,333 calories.
Diet and Exercise Contribution
To create a daily deficit of 3,619 calories, I need to manage both diet and exercise. For example, if I eat 1,500 calories a day, I would need to burn an additional 2,119 calories through exercise to reach the required deficit.
Today Dec 1, 2024. My weight is 112 Kg
This calculation is for educational purposes only and helps understand the effort required for weight loss. I am fully aware that losing weight at such a rapid pace may not be realistic or healthy for everyone. Before starting my 90-day weight loss challenge, I will consult a healthcare expert or a certified nutritionist to ensure that the plan is safe, effective, and tailored to my body’s needs.
Health is my priority, and I will take professional advice to create a sustainable and balanced approach to achieving my goals.
