A big thank you to Jack Beresford - Senior Life and Trends Reporter

Zach Muncy's journey is an inspiring story of how small, consistent changes can lead to big results. Faced with a dire prognosis at 20, weighing 700 pounds and struggling with severe health issues, Zach turned his life around by focusing on daily, achievable goals. Starting with simple exercises from his bed and gradually building a sustainable routine, he lost over 400 pounds in three years.

Zach’s approach was centered on "moderation over deprivation." Instead of cutting out the foods he loved, he enjoyed them in smaller portions while tracking his calories. This mindset helped him not only lose weight but maintain his progress, an area where many struggle. He also focused on improving his mental health, using therapy to address his relationship with food.

Today, Zach’s routine includes regular strength training and aiming for 10,000 steps a day, showing how far he’s come from his days of barely moving. He shares his journey on TikTok to motivate others, emphasizing the importance of taking small steps every day rather than fixating on long-term goals.

Zach’s story underscores the power of small, sustainable changes and staying consistent with a plan tailored to personal needs. By focusing on what truly matters to you, and not just what others expect, you can build momentum and make lasting changes.
