Reddit user shannasaurus is celebrating her impressive weight loss journey on the r/progresspics subreddit. The post quickly gained attention and inspired many others to start their journey as well. In this article, we delve deeper into her journey and share her tips and motivations that could inspire others to achieve the same.
Shannasaurus' Weight Loss Journey
Shannasaurus started intermittent fasting and walking for two miles a day in July 2020. She added yoga into her routine in January 2021. This combination of intermittent fasting, yoga, and walking allowed her to achieve a weight loss of 108lbs in less than a year.
Tips for Successful Weight loss
Shannasaurus shared some tips for anyone looking to lose weight. She advises people to not overthink their weight-loss journey, take it slow but be consistent, and avoid getting discouraged by small setbacks. She also recommends pairing weight loss with exercises that are not too strenuous on the body like walking and yoga.
The Power of Intermittent Fasting
Shannasaurus revealed that she mostly follows a 20/4 or OMAD (one meal a day) fast. For the past six weeks, she has been following an 18/6 regimen with a single 36+-hour fast each week. Intermittent fasting has been incredibly beneficial for weight loss, especially when paired with a good exercise routine.
The Benefits of Yoga
Yoga helped Shannasaurus gain physical and emotional control. She learned to understand how her body works and stretched out physical emotions that made her overeat. Yoga was a game-changer for her and helped her regain her shape, including her collarbones that remain hidden for most people.
