Diet

LoseTheFatBTFC's weight loss journey began with a focus on diet. She tracked her calories using a food scale and the MyFitnessPal app. She focused on eating whole, nutrient-dense foods such as fruits, vegetables, lean protein, and healthy fats. She also limited her intake of processed and high-sugar foods.

Exercise

In addition to changing her diet, LoseTheFatBTFC incorporated regular exercise into her routine. She started with at-home workouts and later joined a gym.

Like many on a weight loss journey, LoseTheFatBTFC experienced stalls and plateaus. But she didn't let that stop her. She adjusted her diet and exercise routine and remained persistent. She also found support and motivation from the BTFC community on Reddit.

Results and Reflections

Through hard work and dedication, LoseTheFatBTFC lost over 100 pounds and completely transformed her body. But more importantly, she gained confidence, energy, and a new lease on life. She encourages others on their own weight loss journey to find what works for them and to never give up.
