How a Reddit User Achieved a 4 Year Weight Loss Journey | Englishbreakfast2821

Introduction

Reddit user 'Englishbreakfast2821' shares their impressive four-year weight loss journey that was a result of slow and steady progress.

Consistency and commitment

Englishbreakfast2821’s achievement is impressive, not just because of the weight loss, but also because of the consistent efforts put into it over 4 years. It's easy to get discouraged when the progress is slow, but the steady progress to the goal weight is what matters most.

The importance of slow progress

Englishbreakfast2821 says it's essential to keep going because slow progress is still progress. Losing one pound 48 times is still 48 pounds lost. It's essential to think positively and consistently work towards the goal, and the progress will show eventually.

Progress slow and steady with exercise and diet

To lose weight, it's crucial to exercise and follow a healthy diet. Englishbreakfast2821's journey included yoyoing between diets for the first 3 years. A year ago, she started boxing/kickboxing for an hour, 3-4 days a week, and focused on counting calories, sticking to a Paleo/Keto diet, and now her activity level is athletic.

Overcoming difficult moments

Englishbreakfast2821 admits there were tough moments, especially during a binge-eating episode. The key to overcoming such moments is to realize the damage that binge eating does and commit to the process consistently. It is also helpful to weigh and measure progress daily and focus on the bigger picture, not just the weight on the scale.
