When love meets determination, beautiful things happen — and one Malaysian couple just proved that.
In a heartwarming post on X (formerly Twitter), Rifdi revealed that he recently got married, and took the opportunity to thank his wife for loving him when he was at his heaviest — nearly 200kg.
Accepted him at his lowest point
When I was close to 200kg and at my lowest point, she accepted me. She was always there encouraging me. Now, I want to give her the best version of myself,” he wrote.
To honour her love and support, Rifdi committed to transforming his health. He shared before-and-after photos showing his dramatic weight loss.
Once weighing 191kg, Rifdi underwent a weight loss procedure in November 2023 and, through disciplined eating and exercise, lost 44kg in just four months.
Stands tall and proud in his wedding suit
Now, he stands tall and proud in his wedding suit, looking noticeably leaner and full of confidence.
Rifdi also posted several snapshots from their wedding day, capturing the joy of the occasion while expressing deep gratitude for his wife’s unwavering support.
Beyond sharing his own journey, Rifdi also reached out to those struggling with their weight:
To anyone going through the same thing — don’t give up!
Obesity isn’t pretty, but take it slow. Enjoy the process. Don’t just set a goal to lose weight, set a goal to live healthily.”
Netizens’ reaction
The post quickly went viral, and netizens flooded the comments, with most praising his dedication and congratulating him on his achievement.
“Congrats bro. You were heavily criticised before, now you’re looking sharp and stylish!”
“Congrats. Love her all the way to heaven, okay? If you ever argue, just remember who stood by you when you were 200kg.”
“Wow bro. Congrats on your marriage and for losing weight. Truly impressive.”
