Introduction

When it comes to weight loss journeys, everyone has a unique method that works for them. One reddit user, PointPsychological66, shared their method and progress of losing 9lbs in just 6 weeks.

Monitoring Nutrition

PointPsychological66 began their journey by starting a calorie deficit and monitoring their macros. They began keeping their carb intake under control and increasing their protein intake. They made a plan to make things easier, and focused more on nutrition as training was already a part of their regular routine.

Incorporating Exercise

PointPsychological66 worked out two to three times a week with pole dancing, three times a week strength training, and once a week skating. They also moved around town only by bike. This, combined with a focus on nutrition, made a big difference.

Making Healthy Food Choices

As a vegetarian, PointPsychological66 had to be a bit more creative with their meal choices. They relied on protein powder and egg whites, and ate a lot of veggies, sprouts, and seeds. They had three snacks a day, which included a protein shake, some almonds, and rice or lentil cakes. They also added unflavored protein powder to soup as part of their dinner.

Results

PointPsychological66 lost 9lbs and saw visible results in just 6 weeks. Their posture improved, and even their friends were commenting on how much they had changed. If you're looking to lose weight, keep in mind that everyone is different and it's important to find the method that works for you. Combining healthy food choices with regular exercise and monitoring your nutrition can lead to great results.
