Setting the Goal

In a Reddit post, user Dracaryn documented her weight loss journey, starting at 160 pounds and aiming to reach her goal weight of 115-110 pounds. Her short height of 4'11" added a challenge to her journey, as even a few pounds were noticeable.

On and Off Struggle

Dracaryn admits to a lot of on and off dieting and exercising before realizing her weight loss goals. She found success when she started to limit portions and slowly lost the weight. However, she felt the need to get back into exercising to tone up.

Challenge of Being Short

Other Reddit users expressed their understanding of the challenges of weight loss for shorter people. A user at 5'0" and 127 pounds shared their own struggles with their lower BMR and needing to limit calories to under 1000 to see results. Dracaryn offered words of encouragement, stating how challenging it can be for short people.

Small Changes

Dracaryn's success came with small changes, like limiting portions and incorporating physical activity. She admits that the journey was slow but making conscious changes to her lifestyle ultimately paid off. She encourages others to try things out for themselves and to not be afraid of setbacks.

Celebrating Success

After losing 40 pounds, Dracaryn has already noticed a change in her physical appearance, as her pictures show a healthier and happier version of herself. She encourages others to take before pictures and celebrate the small victories along the way. Her journey serves as an inspiration to others, showing that small changes to one's lifestyle can have a significant impact on overall health and well-being.
