Introduction

This is the inspiring weight loss story of a woman who found a path towards a healthier life through simple, actionable goals. Over three years, she lost 115lbs, reducing her weight from 290lbs to 175lbs. Her progress was documented on Reddit, where she recently shared pictures of herself from the past three years.

Setting Simple Goals

At the beginning of her journey, she started setting simple, actionable goals that worked best for her. She began by cutting fast food and learning how to cook. Then she focused on portion control, followed by intermittent fasting, and then took a 30-minute exercise routine daily. Over time, she added strength training, cardio, and core workouts to her routine.

The Power of Intermittent Fasting

One of the methods that worked for her was intermittent fasting, where she restricted calorie intake to an 8-hour window. This helped her push past plateaus and achieve weight loss goals. She also kept her daily calorie intake to about 1400 calories.

Overcoming Pain and Discomfort

As someone who started her weight loss journey at a heavy weight, she faced physical discomfort and pain. However, as she continued to lose weight, she noticed a significant improvement in her physical pain. For those who are looking to start their own journey, the key is to start small and find activities that you enjoy doing. Every person's journey is unique, and it's essential to find what works for you!

Conclusion

The journey towards weight loss and a healthy body is different for everyone, but this woman's story provides a shining example of how setting simple goals and staying persistent can lead to incredible results. While her journey isn't over, her progress so far is something to be proud of, as she has taken control of her health and turned her life around. Her story is a testament to the fact that it is possible to achieve weight loss goals through small, actionable steps and by finding an approach that works for you.
