Introduction
One Reddit user, losinit2016, shared her weight loss success story in a ProgressPics subreddit post. After struggling with her weight for some time, she was able to lose 15lbs in just 7 weeks. In this article, we'll take a look at how she accomplished her goals.
Diet
Losinit2016 followed a dissociated diet, which involves not mixing carbohydrates and meat in a single meal, with two cheat days a week. This diet helped improve her digestion and support her weight loss goals. She also mentioned that she ate healthy high protein, low carb foods to keep her from feeling hungry between meals.
Exercise
Along with the diet, Losinit2016 worked out at the gym four times a week. She performed HIIT and functional training exercises on Wednesdays and Fridays and did 50 minutes on the treadmill on Mondays and Thursdays. By the end of 7 weeks, she improved her running pace and was able to cover more distance than she did when she started.
Community support
Throughout her journey, Losinit2016 found motivation and encouragement through the comments section of her post. Peers on the subreddit congratulated her on her progress, and she stated that the positive reinforcement helped her stay committed to her plans.
Conclusion
Weight loss journeys are often challenging, but with dedication and the right techniques, progress can be made. Losinit2016's experience shows that finding a method that works for your body, having a well-rounded approach to diet and exercise, and seeking out support can pay off. So, why not try it out for yourself?
