Weight loss journeys rarely come easy; they demand consistency, sacrifice, and a complete lifestyle reset. For 22-year-old Sobhik Sahu, the transformation was even more personal. After losing his mother and being unable to perform her final rites due to his weight, he made a life-altering promise to turn things around. Once 160 kg, he has now amazed the internet by shedding 85 kilos through disciplined workouts and a high-protein, clean diet.In a deeply emotional video shared online, Sobhik reflects on the struggles that once consumed him, saying he “carried more weight in his heart than in his body.” Alongside his weight, he battled high blood pressure, type 1 diabetes, asthma, arthritis, fissures, and unhealthy eating habits.The most painful
moment, he shared, came during his mother’s last rites. Because of his size, he wasn’t allowed to perform them—his PPE suit was “too small, too tight, and too restricting.”“But I didn’t give up. I wore two PPE kits just to fulfil my last duty to her. That moment changed everything. That day I made a promise—I won’t live like this anymore, for my life and for the mother who believed in me," he recalled.What followed was a relentless transformation journey, one he describes as rebuilding himself “step by step, sweat after sweat, pain after pain, day after day.” Today, he weighs 75 kg.“This stage is not the finish line," he says in the video, adding, “It is my tribute to the mother who raised a fighter. This isn’t a weight loss. This is a rebirth."Honouring her memory, he dedicated the entire transformation to her. In his caption, he wrote, “This transformation is not just a journey, it’s a tribute to my mother for everything she taught me and the upbringing she gave to me. Promise kept. It’s one of her last wishes to see me fit, and today I’m 85 kg down, having started my journey from 160 kg and ended this prep at 75 kg body weight."Social media users were deeply moved, flooding the comments with love and admiration. “She raised a fighter long before the world saw one. This is her victory too," one person wrote. “So inspiring, brother… keep going. You are just giving me more motivation," said another.“This is one of the best transformations I’ve ever seen. Proud of you, brother," added a user. Another commented, “Your mother must be so proud of you now… Don’t forget to love yourself no matter what your shape is." “Super transformation, bro… And that you did it for your mother… Hats off, man!! Admirable!" said one more.
