With 71 upvotes and several positive comments, it's clear that their story resonated with fellow users.

Starting Point

The anonymous user began their journey at 228 pounds. They shared that they struggled with emotional eating and had a sedentary lifestyle. To kickstart their weight loss, they decided to limit their caloric intake to 1600-1800 calories per day while incorporating more movement into their day. Specifically, they began walking more often and eventually incorporated strength training.

Progress and Plateaus

Over the course of several months, the Reddit user shared updates on their progress. They lost weight gradually, with a few plateaus along the way.

For those looking to embark on a weight loss journey, consider finding a supportive community online or in-person. Remember to be patient with yourself, celebrate small victories, and don't be afraid to switch things up if your approach isn't working.
