The Power Of Mindfulness And Enjoying Food
The secret to her success? According to the Reddit post, it was being mindful of her body and enjoying every bite of food. She did not count calories but instead ate less and moved more. Her activities included hiking, walking, and running, among others. Sometimes she experimented with intermittent fasting or OMAD. Through this, she developed a better relationship with food that has significantly improved how she views her health.
The Importance Of Finding Joy In The Journey
While she shared several tips on how she lost weight, she revealed that the key is to find joy in the activities that you do. For her, it was hiking and exploring.
