Introduction

Reddit user djemmybee recently shared her successful two-month weight loss journey, during which she lost 19lbs and achieved a feeling of control over her body. She attributes her success to taking control of her food issues and sticking to a rigorous fitness schedule.

Fitness Schedule

Djemmybee's fitness schedule consisted of a daily 20 to 30-minute jog followed by circuit training or Zumba classes at the gym. She switched to a high-protein, low-processed food diet and counted macros to see how much she should be eating during the day. She stayed hydrated with water, coffee, wine, and lots of greens, lean proteins, some fruits and grains.

Weight Loss Results

In just two months, djemmybee lost 19lbs and dropped from 161lbs to 142lbs. She attributed her weight loss to sticking to her fitness schedule and keeping processed foods and sugary drinks out of her diet. It was a challenge not to binge eat, but she had more energy and was more focused as a result of her exercise routine.

Arm Fat Loss

Arm fat loss was one of djemmybee's goals, which she achieved with a combination of lifting free weights, body weight exercises, lots of cardio, and general fat loss. Her arms look slimmer after losing overall body fat.

Advice and Conclusion

It was not an easy road for djemmybee to lose weight, but she persevered, and her hard work paid off with a body transformation and feeling in control of her eating habits. She advised other people to be disciplined and determined, to find a workout that they enjoy, and to eat healthy foods while counting macros. There is no quick fix, but it is possible to achieve weight loss goals with focus, dedication, and time, as demonstrated by djemmybee's journey.
