Introduction

Losing weight is an arduous journey, and it takes hard work, perseverance, and dedication. While many people tend to give up mid-way, some choose to fight and win against the odds. Reddit user, _bailey, is one such fighter who worked hard and shed 42 pounds in just 5 months. Her progress is worth a read and will help motivate you to embark on your weight loss journey.

The Progress

The 21-year-old Reddit user (_bailey) started her weight loss journey at 270 pounds in July 2020. She followed a strict low-carb (keto) diet, started C25K, and did ab exercises daily. In her 5-month check-in, she reported losing 42 pounds and getting down to 228 pounds. Despite her back rolls getting smaller, her hips and thighs' weight loss has been slow, and she is still wearing the same pants as she did earlier. But that hasn't discouraged her from working hard towards her goal.

The Roaring Support

_Bailey's progress did not go unnoticed, and she received a lot of love and support from the Reddit community. From people complimenting her on her transformation to praising her eyes and eyebrows, and from asking for her secrets to asking for inspiration, she received it all. Her candidness, honest sharing, and enthusiasm kept her followers motivated.

The Hard Work Pays Off

Her progress to date is worth a celebration and a source of inspiration to others who want to lose weight but cannot find that extra push. Moreover, _Bailey's story highlights how her diet and exercise choices have worked for her without compromising her health.

The Takeaway

Bailey's story is a reminder to everyone that weight loss is achievable with the right mindset, efforts, patience, and a bit of support. Instead of giving into the pressures and criticisms, it's important to accept oneself and work towards one's health goals. Similarly, for those in the journey, be kind to oneself and stay honest, accept the slow days, and don't shy away from reaching out for help or support.
