How she lost the weight

She noted that she lost the first 15 lbs primarily through changes in her diet, and only recently started incorporating more exercise.

Despite her success, iheartaffogato still indulges on weekends and only eats at her calorie goal of 1200 cals around 3 days a week. She credits her maintenance to staying consistent with her fitbit step goals, making healthier choices during the week, and allowing herself to treat herself on weekends.

The importance of support

Throughout her journey, iheartaffogato received overwhelmingly positive support from the Reddit community. Comments ranged from congratulating her to asking about her lifestyle changes to sharing their own experiences. This positive reinforcement likely contributed to her success and can serve as an example to anyone looking to make a change.
