Mumble__Bee has lost 50lbs in the span of 12 months, an incredible feat that demonstrates the power of determination and consistency. In this article, we will delve into Mumble__Bee's weight loss journey and provide an overview of her tips and advice.

Strategy Changes

Mumble__Bee explains that losing the last 5-10 lbs was the most difficult, potentially because those pounds are only cosmetic. She increased her calorie intake to persuade her body that losing weight was still a priority, while also exercising more, drinking more water and taking fiber supplements. Ensuring optimal sleep and stress management was also key for her.

Counting Calories

Counting calories accurately helped Mumble__Bee lose weight. She used the MyFitnessPal app and tried not to keep snacks or simple carbs at home. In addition, when she went over her calorie goal, she hopped on the treadmill to burn the extra calories.

Size and Health

Several Redditors expressed concerns about Mumble__Bee's size and health, but she reassured them that she is perfectly healthy and happy with her progress. She wears size six and has a pear-shaped body. She has brought her body fat percentage down to a healthy range and plans to focus on adding muscle now.

Encouragement and Hope

Reading about someone else's weight loss journey can be inspiring and motivating, and Mumble__Bee's success story is a testament to what can be achieved through hard work and dedication. She encourages others to find what works for them and to stay committed, even when the process is difficult. Losing weight may be a challenging journey, but it's one that everyone can take at their own pace with the right mindset and game plan.
