Article by Madeleine Smith
Introduction
A 32-year-old Reddit user, known as sheath2, has lost over 66lbs, going from 256lbs to 190lbs. In a post on r/loseit, she shares her weight loss journey, including the challenges she faced and the healthy habits that worked for her.
Healthy habits
Sheath2 attributes much of her success to tracking calories using the MyFitnessPal app and exercising regularly. She started with YogaZone videos on Hulu and then shifted to the free online yoga classes at DoYogaWithMe.com. She also mentions being mindful of what she eats, prioritizing lean protein, veggies, and whole grains.
Challenges
Sheath2 discusses how her weight loss stalled several times, especially when her activity levels decreased. But instead of obsessing about the numbers on the scales, she would continue practicing healthy habits and focus on non-scale victories like her clothes fitting better, having more energy, and improved sleep quality. She also shares how her weight loss helped her overcome depression.
Encouragement
Reading about someone else's experience can be inspiring, but it's essential to remember that everyone's weight loss journey is different. What works for one person may not work for another. Experimenting with different approaches and making sustainable changes is key. Also, losing weight healthily involves patience and perseverance.
Conclusion
Sheath2's weight loss journey serves as a reminder that healthy habits are crucial in sustainable, long-term weight loss. By slowly incorporating healthier habits into your life, you can see changes, even if they take time. And the best part is, the longer you stick to these new habits, the easier they'll become. With patience, persistence, and a never-give-up attitude, you too can achieve your weight loss goals.
