A YouTuber based in the Pacific Northwest has caught the Internet’s attention as he stunned his viewers by losing 11 kilograms in 46 days. When most people consult a dietitian and sign up for a gym membership, Cody Crone turned to artificial intelligence (AI) for his remarkable transformation.
In a video uploaded on May 17, Crone opened up about his dramatic transformation, revealing that he went from 209 lbs (95 kg) to 183.8 lbs (83 kg) with no shortcuts, no dietary restrictions, and no drugs, The Economic Times reported.
“I was ashamed of my physical health and knew I had to make a change,” Crone said in the video.
According to the report, the YouTuber turned to ChatGPT for help and used the platform to craft a routine based on his goals and lifestyle, the report said. Crone, a husband and father of two, said he created a disciplined and structured routine that included clean eating, consistent workouts, hydration, and a good sleep cycle.
The report said he ate just two meals, with a long fasting window and no eating after 5 pm. His meals included whole, nutrient-rich foods such as grass-fed meats, steel-cut oats, jasmine rice, olive oil, and greens. He completely cut off processed foods, seed oils, sugar, and dairy, focusing on high-quality, organic, hormone-free ingredients.
The report added that Crone also incorporated supplements in his daily routine, including creatine, beta-alanine, collagen, whey protein, and magnesium, to support his training and recovery. He woke up at 4.30 am every day, and exercised in his garage gym for 60 to 90 minutes six days a week. He worked on his sleep cycle, with no screens an hour before bed, blackout curtains, and the elimination of synthetic materials in his bedding. He also included a spoonful of local raw honey before sleep to support rest and recovery.
He prioritised natural light exposure every morning, drank nearly four litres of water daily, but stopped hydration by early evening, and ensured consistent, distraction-free sleep each night. His progress was tracked through daily weigh-ins, based on which ChatGPT adjusted the plan, the report added.
Crone said, the report added, his transformation did not rely on any weight-loss medications like Ozempic. “No drugs, no shortcuts, just whole foods, water, exercise, and sleep,” he said.
Other than weight loss and a full-body reset, Crone said the regimen he followed reduced inflammation, improved his joint health, provided better mental clarity, and boosted his confidence.
