Introduction

Reddit user, Edgy-Lemonade, achieved significant weight loss of 23 lbs in just 3 months. With 76 upvotes, her impressive progress has inspired many on the platform. Her weight loss journey highlights possible healthy practices for others to follow, from meal plan to daily exercise routine.

Edgy-Lemonade's amazing progress

Edgy-Lemonade primarily attributed her significant weight loss to her daily meals and a 1700 calories cut diet. It may seem low as calorie intake, but depending on the person, it is an adequate amount of fuel for most people. More importantly, her diet required all-natural and whole foods with the correct macronutrient balance. She also made sure to exercise daily and followed an exercise routine that included back workouts. As a result, she lost 23 lbs and developed more defined back muscles.

Calories in vs. Calories Out

Edgy-Lemonade is one of many who prove that the key to weight loss and maintaining it is the balance of the calories in and calories out. Unfortunately, many people are unaware of what their intake and expenditure are. They tend to rely on inaccurate measurements or subjective activity levels.

Measuring Calories with Technology

Many technological tools make calorie counting and measurement of activity levels more accurate and efficient. One such tool is a fitness tracker, which will help measure activity levels, pulse rate, ECG, and blood oxygen levels. Nutrition applications also come in handy by enabling users to log their food intake, monitor their macronutrient consumption and even set specific goals. Thus, the tracking tools help users to achieve their specific diet, exercise and weight goals.

Conclusion

Edgy-Lemonade's story provides practical insights into how simple and sustainable dietary adjustments, proper workout routine, and tracking progress can yield significant results in a relatively short amount of time. Although there is no one-fit, solution to weight loss, counting calories, and keeping it healthy and sustainable in the long run, these practices can be applicable to anyone. Consider exploring, whether working with professional nutritionists or personal trainers/teachers or self-experimentation, implementing these techniques on your weight-loss journey.
