I lost 20 kg in 5 months, I'm 181 cm tall and 20 years old, it's been a great fat loss transformation for me

I started my weight loss journey on 18th of Oct 2025, that's when I joined the gym in my apartment which has pretty basic equipment, around the same time I also started watching what I eat.  

Diet 
My daily calorie intake is around 1700 kcal and my protein intake is around 138 g.  My daily meal plan looks like this:
* 6 eggs which are 432 kcal and 37.8 g of protein 
* 200 g of chicken breast which is 330 kcal and 62 g of protein 
* I have a veg cafe lunch at college which is around 900 kcal and 15 g of protein 
* I also have Nakpro Impact Whey which is 170 kcal and 24 g of protein 

Keep in mind, this is what I eat now, when I started it was a bit different but the eggs and chicken have been the same throughout. 

My workout routine is a push pull legs split
* Monday is chest and triceps 
* Tuesday is back and biceps 
* Wednesday is shoulders and legs 
* This routine repeats from Thursday to Saturday and I take Sunday off 

Lately I've been focusing on compound movements to get stronger while losing fat 

I also do cardio 
Cardio has been a big part of my weight loss, I do 30 minutes on the treadmill at 12 incline and 4.2 speed, when I started I was at 7 incline and I increased the duration by 5 minutes every week, that's how I got to where I am now. 

Personally, I didn't think I could do this at first, but I kept going because I felt like I owed it to myself, I wasn't perfect, on Sundays I would sometimes have ice cream or eat something. I shouldn't, but I never gave up, that's my two cents, if you have any questions feel free to DM me, not sure why my earlier post was removed but this is my last attempt to share my progress and help others.
