Introduction

For many people, losing weight can be a long and difficult journey. However, it is also one of the most rewarding transformations you can go through. This article will follow the weight loss journey of a Reddit user, who managed to lose 26lbs in just 4 months.

The User

The user, Ally39, is a 19-year-old female who started her journey at 202lbs and managed to reach 176lbs over the course of 4 months. In addition to losing weight, she also noticed a difference in her face and sides. Reading her experience can be very motivating for people who want to embark on a weight loss journey of their own.

The Diet

Ally39 followed a simple and healthy diet that consisted of a glass of cold water and a banana or apple in the morning, followed by carrots, a small sandwich, or salad for lunch and a mid-morning snack. She allowed herself to eat whatever she wanted for dinner as long as she drank water throughout the day. Ally39 learned that drinking too many sugary drinks was one of the reasons she put on weight in the first place, so that was the first thing she cut back on.

The Exercise Routine

Ally39 supplemented her diet with an exercise routine that involved jogging for at least 3 miles every day and strength training throughout the week. Cardiovascular exercise is an important part of any weight loss journey and she managed to get great results with just daily jogging.

Conclusion

Weight loss journey can be tough but finding motivation can make it more manageable. Ally39 turned to the r/progresspics subreddit for support and inspiration. Losing 26lbs in just four months is no small feat, but Ally39 proves that it is possible with the right combination of diet, exercise, and execution. If you are considering beginning your own weight loss journey, read Ally39's story for inspiration and see what changes you can incorporate into your own life. It is possible for you to achieve your goals as well.
