Introduction
Many people struggle with their weight, which can lead to serious health problems and have an impact on their self-esteem. However, a 24-year-old Reddit user found the motivation to lose 80lb in just 10 months, proving that weight loss is possible with the right mindset and approach.
Healthy Eating Habits
The user’s weight loss journey started with a focus on changing her diet. She started drinking black coffee, downloaded MyFitnessPal, and counted her calories every day. Drinking lots of water and green tea helped her stay hydrated and feel full. She also substituted unhealthy snacks for air-popped popcorn, which has fewer calories and is more filling. By cutting out processed foods and sugary drinks, she was able to make real progress and lose 50 lb in the first few months.
Regular Exercise
Along with healthy eating, the user added regular exercise to her routine. She started with 45 minutes on an elliptical, watching TV series and gradually adding more difficulty. She also worked out with bikini body pilates routines on YouTube and benched pressed at least three times a week. Her problem area was her thighs, so she focused on trimming those with squats and lunges. In addition, she tried cycling and stationary bike at her gym. She started by doing activities 4-5 times a week and gradually increased her frequency and intensity.
Motivation and Tips for Others
The Reddit user credited her success to her attitude, maintaining motivation, and accountability. She made it a point to exercise no matter what the time of day or how tired she was. She even added incentives like watching her favorite Netflix series only while exercising. Additionally, she renewed her focus by reading posts from Reddit and other social media users who had accomplished similar goals. She provided tips for other people who may be finding it hard to lose weight, including finding healthy recipes for lunch, identifying low-calorie menus when dining out, and using alternative drinks like vodka with club soda.
Conclusion
Losing weight is not easy, but it can be done with a combination of healthy eating habits, regular exercise, and the right motivation. This 24-year-old woman lost 80 lbs in just 10 months and showed that it can be a practical goal to achieve. So, why not follow her example and start changing your lifestyle to achieve a healthier version of yourself.
