Setting Reasonable Goals is Key

The journey of losing weight is tough but not impossible. The first step is setting a clear and reasonable goal, as the Reddit user did in their journey from 167lbs to 116lbs. It takes time and patience to see the results while sticking to a healthy lifestyle.

Discipline and Hard-work are Critical

The Reddit user rightfully acknowledged the role of hard-work and discipline in weight loss. Achieving a healthier weight demands a consistent routine that includes regular workouts, daily dietary intake monitoring, and minimizing stress factors.

Weight Loss is More Than a Number on a Scale

Even though the Reddit user hit their desired weight of 116lbs, they acknowledge it is not just about the number on the scale as issues like self-confidence, mental health, and other aspects of life still need to be addressed.

Not One-Size-Fits-All

The Reddit user had to experiment with various diets and workout routines to find what worked best for their body. There is no one-size-fits-all formula for losing weight. Each person's physical and mental attributes must be taken into account for a sustainable transformation.

Anyone can Achieve their Goals with Hard work

This Reddit user's journey proves that anyone can achieve their desired weight with hard work, discipline, and patience. It's crucial to set reasonable goals, maintain a consistent routine, find what works best for the body, and pay attention to mental health.
