Introduction

One of the most popular subreddits is r/loseit where people share their weight loss journey. Here, we present the story of a Reddit user who shared their journey on the platform. This user has since deleted their account, but their posts can still be found and can serve as an inspiration for anyone who is also trying to lose weight.

Starting Point

The user's first post recounts how they weighed 289 pounds and that they were tired of their weight controlling their life. They vowed to make a change, and thus began their weight loss journey. The post was met with supportive comments from fellow Redditors who encouraged them to keep going.

Sharing Progress

Over time, the user shared updates on their progress, with posts detailing healthy meals they were eating, their exercise routines, and their weight loss milestones. These posts raked up a total of 60 upvotes and inspired other Redditors who were also on their weight loss journey to keep going.

Stumbling Blocks

The user also shared the tough times throughout their journey. They talked about days when they had cravings, days when they fell off the wagon and ate unhealthy foods, and days when they were demotivated. However, each time they faced a stumbling block, they would post about it, and the support from the Reddit community helped them get back on track.

Conclusion

The user eventually stopped posting on Reddit, but not before sharing their final weight loss progress. They had lost a total of 80 pounds, an incredible feat that they attributed to discipline, hard work, and the support of the Reddit community. Their journey serves as a reminder that weight loss isn't an easy road, but it's possible with determination and the right mindset.
