A man who ate 4,000 calories a day has lost a whopping 11 stone and documented his journey - by taking a selfie every day.

Bishoi Khella, 29, realised he needed to lose weight after a holiday with friends in Mexico where he struggled to take part in walks or jet-skiing activities.

Weighing over 350lbs when he came back from his trip, Bishoi thought "this is it enough of this."

Bishoi put his foot down and started an intense exercise regime of two 45-minute workouts every day, a run in the morning and a gym session in the evening.

Two years on, Bishoi now weighs 165lbs and shows off his incredible transformation and shredded abs.

Bishoi, who lives in Toronto, Canada, said: "I had just come back from a trip to Mexico. "

"A trip all my friends absolutely had a blast on and I was sitting there thinking how? I hated it."

"It was the height of covid and the resorts were empty - there wasn't much partying going on."

"And so instead of the main focus of the trip being chilling in a pool drinking, they made the most of it by doing activities like jet skiing, walks on the beach - things I couldn't enjoy doing because everything was a struggle."

Bishoi, a business owner, would eat takeaway food every day and even gorge on burgers, pizzas and wings for breakfast - consuming 4,000 calories most days.

But he knew something needed to change quickly before his health took a turn for the worse.

In 2018, Bishop had stroke scare, which turned out to be a panic attack, but the struggle he experienced on holiday was the real turning point.

Bushoi finally decided to buckle down when he returned and stuck to a strict exercise routine, which included two workouts a day.

He said: "[There were] two 45-minute workouts a day, one of them had to be outside."

"I drank a gallon of water, read 10 pages of a self-development book, took a daily progress picture, and had no alcohol or cheat meals for 75 straight days."

"Yes that included weekends."

"Back when I was 350lbs, I’d wake up and do my first workout which was an outdoor 'run.'"

"I say 'run' because I couldn’t go very far, maybe a couple of minutes before I had to stop to catch my breath."

"I’d run as far as I could until I couldn’t catch my breath anymore, walk for a bit and then pick it back up until the 45 minutes were up."

"I’d only cover about 5 km in 50 minutes."

It was the height of the Covid-19 lockdowns when Bishoi started his fitness journey, but this didn't deter him in anyway.

He said: "At the time, gyms were closed in Canada because of Covid."

"So for my second evening workout, I got one of those annual city bike share passes and would bike around the city for 45 minutes."

"As soon as the gyms opened back up, I dropped the bike and weight trained instead."

Bishoi initially intended to stick to his exercise routine for 75 days but when he started to see results, he decided to carry on.

He said: "I just continued that on for the better part of two years. "

"I’d finish a phase, take a weekend off and jump right back into it. "

"During those two years I probably took a total of 30 days off."

Bishoi now weighs 165lbs and runs 10km nearly every morning and hit the gym in the evening.

He has no plans on stopping now and has praised the "mental toughness" that he has developed since starting his fitness journey."

"My ultimate goal would be to run a 100k ultramarathon. "

"Believe it or not, I still to this day hate running. "

"That’s why I do it every single day – to strengthen my mind."
