Akitacarp, a 33-year old Redditor, has successfully achieved his weight-loss goal in 3 months. He shared his journey on the platform, and it has garnered 121 upvotes to date. His secret? Intermittent fasting, calorie tapering, and clean eating.
What is Intermittent Fasting (IF)?
IF is an eating pattern that involves periods of fasting (not eating or limiting calorie intake) and periods of eating. Akitacarp shared that he started slowly, by skipping breakfast and eating within an 8-hour window, 1 PM to 9 PM. This is known as 16:8, the most common type of IF.
Calorie Tapering
Reducing calories over time is a method that Akitacarp used to taper his diet along with his weight-loss. He slowly made portion sizes smaller and finished meals before cleaning the plate. This gradual approach is effective as calorie needs decrease as you lose weight.
Clean Eating
In conjunction with IF and calorie tapering, Akitacarp changed his eating habits, opting for whole foods that are nutritious and low in calories, and avoiding processed foods. This helped him keep track of his calorie intake and achieve his weight-loss goal.
Conclusion
Akitacarp's weight-loss journey is a testament to the effectiveness of IF, calorie tapering, and clean eating. His results show that losing weight is possible with a commitment to a healthier lifestyle. Try it out for yourself and see what works best for you. Remember, consultation with a doctor or nutritionist is always a good idea before starting any new diet or exercise regimen.
