O’Keefe said he has been trying to lose weight for the past 15 years and has tried every diet and exercise fad out there. He then discovered David Goggins’ book, “Can’t Hurt Me,” which helped him on this weight loss journey.
He mentioned that he always failed to lose weight because of a lack of discipline and weakness in his family and friends. So, he decided to get off-grid and begin my weight loss transformation.
He started the journey weighing 338 pounds and did everything he could by refusing to quit. O’Keefe ensured that he would achieve the target weight he wanted this time. That’s why in 7 months, he tried to challenge himself by increasing reps and doing various daily routines.
He started by walking 90 minutes a day and then introduced weightlifting six days a week, swimming three times a week, and running three times a week.
Instead of focusing on the scale, he was focused on being mentally resilient.
There is one thing we thought of, as he is back with family and friends, will he be unable to say no? Also, how does someone go off the grid for seven months? Who can afford that?
