Losing More than 50 Pounds with Dreaded Renewal of License

KsChoice620, a Reddit user, lost more than 50 pounds over the past year. She shared her weight loss journey on the forums when she renewed her ID, which showed her before and after weight. The post has garnered over 62 upvotes.

The Power of MFP and Walking

The 31-year-old woman from Alabama attributed two things to her weight loss success: MyFitnessPal and walking. She made sure to use MFP to log her food and stick to a calorie limit of at most 1260 per day. She also tried to walk two miles per day, four days per week.

Setting a Cheat Day and Having a Positive Mindset

KsChoice620 believed that sometimes indulging in unhealthy food was necessary. To keep herself from feeling too deprived, she designated a cheat day on Saturdays where she could eat whatever she wanted. She also made sure to stay positive and celebrate any progress, no matter how small.

Changing Glasses and Getting More Compliments

KsChoice620 also made some lifestyle changes aside from her diet and exercise. She changed her glasses frames to flatter her face better and got a new hairstyle. Her efforts not only improved her physical appearance, but she also received compliments that boost her confidence.

Try it yourself

KsChoice620's story proves that sustainable weight loss is possible with healthy habits, a positive mindset, and patience. Try implementing her strategies for your own weight journey, but make sure to listen to your body and seek professional advice if you have any health concerns.
