This shift in mindset, away from using food as a coping mechanism and focusing on a goal, is what allows FupacShakur to continue onwards.
Conclusion
The weight loss journey is a difficult one, especially when coping with the stresses of parenthood. However, FupacShakur's journey is an inspiration that one can attain their goals with dedication and a shift in mindset. Focusing on the small joys in life and away from comfort foods can make all the difference. FupacShakur's Reddit post shows that it's possible to achieve great results over time - and one can learn from their journey and apply the same dedication and goal-setting to their own lives.
