Introduction

Reddit user Bluepizzabooks has captured the attention of the online community after sharing her 5-month weight loss journey. Through a combination of regular exercise and a balanced diet, she managed to lose an impressive 31 pounds, marking the lowest weight she's been in around 10 years.

Diet and Nutrition

Bluepizzabooks credits her success to following a balanced diet, where she aims to consume between 1,600-1,800 calories most days. She also limits her alcohol intake to special occasions. Her diet includes plenty of protein, complex carbohydrates, and healthy fats, with an emphasis on whole foods.

Exercise Routine

To achieve her weight loss goals, Bluepizzabooks incorporated a combination of cardio and strength training. She cycles 2-3 times per week and goes to the gym for incline walking and running on the treadmill 2-3 times per week. When the weather is good, she swaps gym time for cycling. She also started incorporating weights into her routine over the last few weeks. Her typical gym session consists of 3.5-4.5km of running and walking.

Changes and Progress

Bluepizzabooks mentioned that an overhang on her stomach was a particular cosmetic issue she wanted to address. While she still has some stretch marks and the overhang is still there, she's noticed a marked improvement and puts it down to strengthening her abdominal muscles. She's also noticed an improvement in body confidence and shares progress pictures on her Reddit post to encourage others on their journeys.

A balanced diet, regular exercise, and plenty of patience and perseverance are required for success on this journey.
