Introduction

Crazykiesel, a 31-year-old woman, overcame obesity by losing 90lbs in a year. Her journey towards healthy living has been fueled by motivation, dedication, and a complete overhaul of her approach to food.

The Overhaul Process

Crazykiesel's weight loss journey started with OMAD (one meal a day) because she only ate when she was hungry, and that happened to be once a day. Slowly, she incorporated vegetables with every meal and was mindful of eating higher-calorie dense food. Then, she transitioned into CICO (calories in, calories out) when she started working out and was hungry all the time and needed to figure out how to eat balanced meals multiple times a day. She spent a lot of time practicing and learning how different foods made her feel and fueled her.

The Progress

Crazykiesel lost 90 pounds in a year and has since been maintaining her weight loss for three years while slowly losing the remainder. She mentioned that she is now mostly eating whatever she wants, within reason, because of the time she spent practicing and learning how different food makes her feel and fuels her.

The Takeaway

Crazykiesel's weight loss journey was successful because she made achievable, slow changes to her approach to food. Everyone's body is unique, and there is no one size fits all solution to weight loss. Experimenting, practicing, and learning how different foods make us feel and fuel us is essential in achieving our fitness goals.

Conclusion

Crazykiesel is an inspiration to those looking to lead a healthy lifestyle. Her journey is a reminder that change is never easy, but it is always possible. With perseverance and motivation, anyone can achieve their fitness goals.
