Introduction

Notclevergirl, a 28 year old woman who stands at only 5'3" tall, recently shared her extraordinary weight loss journey on Reddit. She has lost an impressive 60lbs over a period of 6 months and is only 10lbs away from reaching her first milestone. Her post has over 1200 upvotes and has inspired many others struggling with weight loss to take control of their health.

Diet and Exercise Regime

Notclevergirl attributes her success to a strict diet and exercise routine. She follows One Meal a Day (OMAD) and consumes only one meal within a single hour each day. She integrates walking and other cardio into her daily schedule in addition to strength training with weights. Exercise helped to create a calorie deficit and maintain muscle mass while the OMAD diet led to rapid weight loss without sacrificing the intake of essential nutrients.

Overcoming Challenges

Notclevergirl admits that her weight loss journey has not been entirely smooth-sailing, and there were times where she felt demotivated or lacked discipline. To overcome these challenges, she took it one day at a time and celebrated her non-scale victories such as achieving a personal best in exercise or fitting into a smaller clothing size. She also frequently turned to the supportive community on Reddit, where other users would post kind comments and offer words of encouragement.

Skin Removal

One user in the comments section of Notclevergirl's post asked if she had undergone surgery to remove excess skin. To their surprise, she replied that she had not and that the OMAD diet had potentially helped to reduce the amount of loose skin thanks to a process called autophagy. This process causes cells to break down and can aid in skin regeneration. Notclevergirl remains hopeful that she will not require surgery or a skin removal procedure in the future.

Conclusion

Notclevergirl's weight loss journey is an inspiration to many who struggle with their weight. Her success can be attributed to a strict diet and exercise regime, a positive mindset, and the support of an online community. While everyone's weight loss journey is unique, Notclevergirl's story may encourage others to adopt similar habits and strategies when trying to reach their own health goals.
