KUALA LUMPUR: An entrepreneur and social media influencer, Khairul Aming, has emerged as a beacon of inspiration as he shares his transformative weight loss journey throughout 2023.
In a recent Instagram post, Khairul Aming, also known as Khairul Amin Kamarulzaman, revealed his awakening to the significance of prioritising his health at the beginning of 2023.
He emphasised the importance of overhauling his dietary habits before diving into a consistent gym workout routine.
"At the onset of 2023, I realised the need to reclaim my health. Neglecting my diet and avoiding exercise had taken a toll, with my clothes feeling tight and even a casual walk proving challenging.
"Therefore, I made a conscious decision to refine my diet initially, experimenting with meals that align with my capabilities.
"While I still include rice in my diet, I meticulously weigh it to ensure a daily calorie deficit. In February, I began gym workouts despite initial discomfort. By April, I sought guidance from a trainer to fine-tune my exercise regimen," he shared.
He also expressed his elation upon achieving his fitness goals, marking a significant and satisfying milestone.
His transformation has not only made him physically 'fit' but has also eliminated the once-constant struggle for breath during daily activities.
Khairul Aming encouraged his followers to embark on their health journeys in the upcoming year.
"The joy of going out without feeling breathless is immeasurable. This, for me, represents a milestone that brings immense satisfaction.
"This time, I invite all of you to prioritise your health in 2024. Whether initiating a workout routine or being mindful of your diet, patience is key, as such transformations don't happen overnight."
The 31-year-old entrepreneur joyfully revealed a remarkable weight loss of 20 kg, expressing gratitude for the realisation of his dream to attain an ideal weight.
"Within this year, I have shed 20 kg after initiating a mission to embrace a healthier lifestyle in 2023. Alhamdulillah, the mission is accomplished, but the journey continues. I seek your prayers for consistency.
Khairul Aming's transparent and relatable fitness journey has resonated deeply with netizens, inspiring many to embark on their health and wellness transformations.
Numerous followers commended Khairul for setting a commendable example and fostering a positive influence that motivates others to prioritise their well-being.
"Thank you so much for advocating the right mindset about losing weight and taking care of yourself. We need more big-time content creators like you to keep reminding everyone that making lifestyle changes needs patience," remarked @Zhiling Nutrition.
