A thread to lose weight, and see a healthier version of me, v2026.6?. This is inspired from closely following Priyanka and Jason

This iteration is different from the 2021 version of weightloss. In 2021, the weightloss I did was mostly through walking 6kms a day. This really helped with bringing the metabolism, and dropping weight in 6 months. The problem was I looked skinny. This time I am trying a different route - I would be doing good amount of strength training with walking, skipping or running as cardio. I want to learn something new from this journey.

Why I Started Tracking Everything

Six months ago I was doing the same thing most desk-job engineers do — working long hours, sleeping at 2AM, eating inconsistently, telling myself I’d start properly “next week.”

The problem wasn’t motivation. It was system design.

I’m a systems engineer. I build immutable infrastructure for a living. I understand that a system without observability is a system you cannot debug. And yet I was running my body as a complete black box — no inputs tracked, no outputs measured, no feedback loop.

A thread to lose weight, and see a healthier version of me, v2021.6?. This is inspired from closely following Priyanka and Jason

In the ending months of 2020, I started with regularly doing a form of excercise be it skipping, walking, or HIIT. This has helped me lower the rest heartbeat which had increased to a high of >95. Now, after 3 months it’s down to staying in the 70 range. Somedays even staying in the 65-70 range.
