Weight loss content is everywhere. Before and afters, transformation reels, supplement ads disguised as testimonials- the internet is absolutely saturated with it, and most of it follows the same formula. But every now and then someone comes along with a story that cuts through all of that noise because it is genuinely, uncomplicatedly real.
André Helgesen is a Swedish man who had already lost nearly 110 LB (50kg) before deciding that was not quite enough. So he quit his job, booked a flight to China, and checked himself into a weight loss boot camp in Shenzhen for four weeks. The before and after is remarkable. What he said about it afterward is even better.
