A photo of a 5'10" man showing a weight cut from 218 pounds to 212 pounds. A total loss of 6 pounds.
M/24/5’10” [218 > 212 = 6 lbs] (3 months) Lost 30 pounds to get to 218. I was getting pretty frustrated with lack of progress on the scale but then I saw the first picture from 3 months ago. Still have work to do but it’s nice to remind myself of the progress that doesn’t always show on the scale.

Introduction

Losing weight can be challenging and often frustrating. However, progress can come in many forms, not just through the scale. One reddit user, PapaMock, shares his weight loss journey and reminds us of the importance of celebrating small victories.

Initial weight loss struggle

PapaMock began his journey at 218 pounds, with a goal of losing 30 pounds. However, after some initial progress, he began to feel discouraged by the lack of movement on the scale. He credits progress pictures with helping him to see the changes in his body, even if the scale wasn't showing it.

Celebrating small victories

It's important to celebrate every small victory on the journey to weight loss. While losing 6 pounds in 3 months may not seem like a lot, it's still progress. PapaMock emphasizes that progress can come in many forms, not just through the number on the scale.

Importance of progress photos

Taking progress photos can be a valuable tool in the weight loss journey. It allows you to see the changes in your body even if the scale isn't moving. PapaMock credits progress photos as a source of motivation and encouragement when the scale wasn't cooperating.

Conclusion: Try it for yourself

The weight loss journey can be tough, but celebrating small victories and taking progress photos can be helpful. Remember, progress can come in many forms, not just through the scale. Try it for yourself and see the positive impact it can have on your journey to a healthier you.
