Introduction

Weight loss is a struggle that many people face. However, one Reddit user has shared an inspiring story about losing weight in just three months. F19, from 145 lbs to 119 lbs, this M19 journey is a testament to how a combination of dedication and discipline can help you achieve your weight loss goals.

Initial Cardio and Diet

The first 28 days of the program consisted of daily 1 hr elliptical workouts, 20 min park walks, and 15 min jogs. She ate smaller portions and still included cake and ice-cream in her meals. She drank a lot more water and counted her calories. These changes yielded results of 127 lbs in just 28 days.

Zumba and Walking

The next 18 days were more relaxing for F19, as she replaced cardio with 40 min park walks and manual labor like building decks and trimming trees. This was followed by Zumba and 20 min walks in the next 44 days but with smaller portions as meals. She managed to lose about 4 pounds in the next month.

Drinking Water and Mental Conditioning

The Reddit user emphasizes the importance of drinking lots of water throughout the weight loss journey. Mental conditioning played a significant role in helping her stick to the workout schedule. She made a schedule for drinking water at regular intervals, that is, a glass of water in the morning, a bottle of water after 30 minutes of exercise, and water after meals.

Conclusion

The journey of F19 from 145 lbs to 119 lbs emphasizes the importance of discipline, dedication, and small but significant changes in diet and lifestyle in bringing about weight loss. The fact that F19 was able to achieve her weight loss goal of 26 pounds in 3 months is a testament to the power of small and significant changes.
