Introduction
Getting to a desired weight is not easy, but with hard work, dedication, and consistency, it can be achieved.

In this article, we will discuss how she did it, the challenges she faced and what kept her motivated throughout this journey.
The Journey
To achieve her goal, the user used the Weight Watchers points system, which helped her keep track of her eating habits. She learned what was healthy for her and what she needed to cut out, which included fast food and soda. Instead, she resulted to eating fruits and veggie chips/hummus, after stocking her fridge with them. In addition, she walked/jogged for 2-3 miles two or three times a week.
Results
The user managed to lose 25lbs in just 5 months and was proud to share her achievement on Reddit. Initially, she couldn't see any visible changes until she put together two photos from the first day of school in 2013 and 2014, which clearly showed the significant difference.
Motivation and Challenges
Graduating from school is stressful, and studying almost all day long doesn't give one the energy to motivate themselves to work out. However, the user set weekly and monthly goals for herself, and she ensured that she achieved them regardless of how tired or ready to give up she was. Posting on Reddit and sharing her progress also kept her motivated, as she received encouraging feedback and support from the community.
Conclusion
Shedding off extra pounds isn't easy, but it's doable with hard work, dedication, and consistency. The Reddit user's transformation is proof that it's possible to achieve your weight goals. It all comes down to finding a good system, being disciplined and persistent, and seeking out support and motivation, which can be found on online platforms like Reddit. Take charge of your weight journey and start small, like the Reddit user, and before you know it, you will achieve your desired weight.
