Jacob Correia transformed his body after he went on a drastic weight loss journey and lost almost 130 lbs or approximately 59 kg in the span of one year. In a recent video, the fitness coach, who goes by @iampeachfit on Instagram, shared all the changes that happen after you lose weight. Some of them are truly bizarre.
What happens when you lose weight?
Jacob began his weight loss journey at 315 lbs, which is approximately 143 kg. After training hard and regulating his diet, the fitness coach brought down his weight to 185 lbs (approximately 84 kg) in a year. In the video titled ‘Things that happen after you lose weight’, he shared all the changes one notices after weight loss. Here are the 3 changes he mentioned:
- Sitting down becomes uncomfortable:
When you shed fat after extreme weight loss, you also lose fat from certain places of your body, including your hips, making sitting quite uncomfortable because it becomes painful for your hipbone. Many netizens agreed with Jacob on this.
- Clothes become an expression, not a cover:
After weight loss, the clothes that used to hug your frame become loose. These visible results often boost confidence and motivate you to continue your weight loss journey. Additionally, clothes that you couldn’t wear before because of low morale become your means of expressing your sartorial tastes.
- Your footsteps are a lot more quiet:
Jacob pointed out that after losing weight, your footsteps are a lot quieter than before. An Instagram user agreed with him and wrote, “I plan on losing more weight but I already sneak up on people. Soon, I’ll become a ninja, hahaha.”
His followers agreed with Jacob’s observation, and many listed a few other changes they noticed when they lost a few kilos. One user wrote, “You forgot. You feel colder more often.” Another commented, “Totally relatable bro, whenever I sit down, feels like it’s just bones and skin.” Another comment read, “The sitting down one I learned the hard way this year.” A user remarked, “Literally my tailbone always hurt.”
A user complimented Jacob’s efforts and wrote, “Seeing your clothes fitting you because you’re thinner has to feel wonderful after your effort, proud of you my man.”
