Introduction

Wellidontknow_dude, a female Reddit user, has successfully lost 8lbs in just 10 weeks by following an intermittent fasting (IF) and low carb approach to her diet. Her post has garnered over 200 upvotes and comments from people who are inspired and motivated by her success.

The 75 Hard Challenge

In addition to IF and low carb, wellidontknow_dude also attributes her weight loss success to the 75 Hard Challenge. This challenge involves following a strict diet, drinking enough water, working out twice a day, and reading 10 pages of a non-fiction book every day for 75 days straight. Her dedication and commitment towards this challenge have paid off with her visible weight loss transformation.

Comments of support

Wellidontknow_dude's progress was praised by her Reddit peers, with comments ranging from admiration over her visible abs and strength, to sharing of motivation to reach their own fitness goals. She even inspired one redditor to aim to be in better shape at 40 than they were in their 20s, a goal which wellidontknow_dude shares for herself.

IF and low carb approach

Wellidontknow_dude's IF and low carb approach is a popular combination among those seeking to lose weight. By limiting her carbohydrate intake, particularly simple carbs, she is able to regulate her blood sugar levels and avoid sudden spikes which may result in weight gain. Intermittent fasting further assists in keeping insulin levels low, which makes it easier for the body to burn stored fat for energy.

Conclusion

Wellidontknow_dude's successful weight loss journey shows that with dedication and commitment, it is possible to achieve one's fitness goals. Her approach of combining IF and low carb, together with the 75 Hard Challenge, has been effective for her, but it is important to remember that every person's body is unique and what works for one may not work for all. Nevertheless, it is encouraging to see how a committed fitness journey can result in such visible transformation.
