Bravo for him.

He does have some excellent advise: ...don't overdo it on exercise. Most people do not know how to properly train in the gym and go way harder than they should, hurt themselves eventually, and lose all motivation to continue. Your health journey is a marathon, so please take your time, try to understand how your body operates.

This is what I tell my wife, it is a journey, take your time, don't over do it, but you have to be consistent.

150-200 mins per week of “moderate” aerobic exercise (every friggin’ week!!!) with a healthy diet of whole foods will cause you to lose 1-2 pounds per week.

Any faster than that is harmful.
