Carpo shared that the most challenging part of his weight loss journey was the change in routine, which means he isn’t going out as much as he used to. He also shared how difficult it has been for him not to eat burgers and chips, which he admitted are still his favourites. Carpo said:

“What's been driving me to do this is God. God pushes me and gives me the strength. I really want to go to 80kgs, but my trainer says I’m at a good weight now and should gain muscle. With my gym journey, I always say to people, ‘Watch us do it.’”

He shared that he wants to drop his weight to at least 80 kgs before he starts gaining muscle.
