Introduction

Losing weight can be a daunting task, but the success stories of others can provide valuable insights and inspiration. We stumbled upon a Reddit user's 100lbs weight loss journey and wanted to share their insights without any promotions.

Weight Loss Tips

The Reddit user lost most of the weight by eating right and exercising. They went on their own version of Weight Watchers. The user found a point calculator and a point book online and worked within the system. They determined how many points they get daily and adjusted their diet from there. At first, it was very difficult, but the user realized that in time, they would alter their taste buds and cravings. They stopped all bad habits completely, even their addiction to diet drinks.

Exercise Routine

The Reddit user began biking and gradually worked their way up to biking 13 miles every couple of days. They also began doing sit-ups, push-ups, and squats. These three exercises were enough to satisfy many components of their body. The user recommended finding a routine that works best for the individual.

Eating Habits

The Reddit user eliminated chips, ice cream or cakes, cookies, soda, or any other snacks from their diet. They barely ate out and limited their consumption of red meat and dairy. When they ate out, they got no dressing or sauces, didn't eat any of the bread, and only drank water. Nonetheless, they admitted that portion control played a big part in aiding their weight loss journey.

Conclusion

While everyone's weight loss journey is different, success stories like this can provide some useful insights and tips. The Reddit user pointed out that it was difficult at first, but changing one's eating habits can change taste buds and cravings. Finding an exercise routine that works for the person also contributes significantly to the process. Portion control, eliminating snacks, and cutting down on fast food are also vital for any weight loss journey.
