Introduction

Reddit user lemaxx shared her weight loss journey on the social media platform, detailing how she lost 32lbs to reach a healthier weight of 123lbs. Lemaxx attributes her success in losing weight and maintaining it for a year to a consistent routine of intermittent fasting and walking.

How She Did It

Lemaxx revealed that she followed a routine of intermittent fasting, specifically the 16:8 method. This means she fasted for 16 hours and ate during an 8-hour window. She also made sure to walk 10,000 steps on most days, which helped her burn calories in a consistent and manageable way. She credits her success to consistency, and says that after a few weeks, the routine became a lifestyle change rather than a temporary diet.

Advice for Others

Lemaxx's top advice for those starting out on a weight loss journey is to stay as consistent as possible for the first few weeks. She admits that in the past she would give up on herself after only a week of trying to lose weight. But by committing to a routine, and finding one that worked for her, she was able to turn it into a lasting lifestyle change. She also credits Reddit and its weight-loss communities for helping her stay motivated and accountable.

Continuing the Journey

Though lemaxx hit her goal weight of 123lbs a year ago, she is still committed to maintaining her healthy lifestyle. She is no longer actively trying to lose weight, but instead is focusing on staying active and making healthy food choices. She continues to use Reddit as a source of support and to share her journey with others, inspiring many along the way.

Conclusion

The story of lemaxx is a reminder that weight loss is possible with consistent effort and a sustainable routine. Fasting and walking are accessible and manageable for most people, making them a great starting point for those looking to lose weight. And as lemaxx has shown, finding support and accountability through online communities can be hugely beneficial in maintaining long-term success.
