Introduction
F27, also known as Cinnabuns94 on Reddit, has been on a weight loss journey for one year. She started at 200lbs and now weighs 177lbs, having lost a total of 23lbs. Cinnabuns94 recently shared her progress online, along with her thoughts and feelings about the process.
Being Disappointed With Progress
Cinnabuns94 expressed disappointment with her progress, stating that she had lost an additional 12lbs before she started taking pictures. However, several people in the comments encouraged her and reminded her that she was doing well. They pointed out that a slow and steady weight loss is much better than yo-yo dieting followed by weight gain. Furthermore, she had a longer consistency in changing her lifestyle than most people.
Making Lifestyle Changes
Cinnabuns94 explained that in the first few months, she mostly ate in a deficit and did cardio a few times a week. She lost weight rapidly at first, but now incorporates weightlifting and cardio 2-3 times a week. She tries to eat at a 400 calorie deficit Monday to Friday, then eats at maintenance or slightly above it on weekends. She's working hard to do it right and sustainably.
Keeping Positive and Motivated
While it’s natural for people to feel down when they don’t meet their goals as fast as they’d like, it’s crucial to remain positive and patient on this journey. Cinnabuns94 admitted to comparing herself to others and feeling like she should have lost more weight by now. In such cases, fitness communities crawling with supportive remarks like these help one stay motivated and focused. So, let's not be too hard on ourselves! Celebrate and appreciate every milestone achieved.
Conclusion
Cinnabuns94's journey is a reminder that both inner and outer transformations require patience and focus. While 23lbs may seem small in number, it’s a huge accomplishment when it comes to weight loss. The comments section is a reminder that we shouldn’t compare ourselves to others, and instead focus on our own progress. Remember, slow and steady wins the race!
