SpagootiBurglar did not only reduce her weight but also transformed her habits, which made her journey even more motivating.

Dietary habits and lifestyle changes

SpagootiBurglar's journey involved a complete overhaul of her dietary habits. She started by reducing her daily caloric intake from 4k-6k calories a day to 1250 calories a day, with a focus on high protein, low carb, and zero added sugar foods. Additionally, she adopted intermittent fasting and restricts her eating to water only. Alongside her dietary changes, she established healthy habits such as maintaining a morning and night routine, stretching and incorporating more activity during the day in general.

Discipline and consistency

Discipline and self-motivation played significant roles in SpagootiBurglar's journey. Her commitment to changing her habits and forming new ones was remarkable. She made sure to stick to her routine by tracking her daily food intake and engaging in daily exercises like running a mile every day, with only two rest days in a week.

PCOS and sugar intake

SpagootiBurglar has PCOS, which is why she is incredibly strict about her sugar intake. Her sugar restriction combined with her healthy habits not only contributed to her weight loss but also to her menstrual cycle. In mid-October, she had her first menstrual cycle in her life.

Conclusion

Reducing caloric intake, following a balanced diet rich in protein, and low in sugar, along with regular exercise can lead to significant changes in our lives.
