Introduction
One 28-year-old woman, standing at 5 feet 7 inches and weighing in at 170lbs, took to reddit to document her journey towards a healthier lifestyle, noting updates on both her weight and body fat percentage from August 29th to November 21st.
Week 1 Progress
During the first week of her journey, she began utilizing weight training to supplement her diet plan. Though she gained 4lbs, her body fat % decreased, which she attributed to muscle gain from weight training.
Week 2 Progress
In the second week, the woman saw progress on the scale, losing 5lbs. She also achieved a milestone, being able to comfortably complete a full bodyweight squat. Additionally, she noted a decrease in her measurements, particularly around her hips and shoulders.
Week 3 Progress
Though her weight continued to fluctuate in the third week, the woman saw a decrease in her body fat percentage and continued progress in her measurements. She also noted that she was already lifting close to the maximum weight of her starter weight set and may need to invest in a new one soon.
Conclusion
Though we don't have updates on whether this woman met her initial weight goal by the Nov 20th deadline, her progress shows the importance of utilizing both diet and exercise in working towards a healthier lifestyle. Additionally, posting progress updates publicly can hold one accountable and inspire others to strive for similar goals.
