Introduction

StacieBroman's inspiring weight loss journey was captured on Reddit, where she shared pictures of her transformation from 200 pounds to 140 pounds in just one year. Her post garnered over 2000 upvotes and numerous comments, with many expressing their admiration and asking for tips to follow in her footsteps.

StacieBroman's journey

StacieBroman began her journey by counting calories, sticking to a diet of >1400 calories a day and avoiding refined carbs. She also exercised 4-6 days a week, doing a combination of HIIT cardio and lighter weights (no more than 50lbs) for 60-70 minutes. Later on, Stacie started toning and strength training and increased her calorie intake while maintaining her healthy habits. Stacie believes that her progress was challenged by occasional cravings for junk food and finding the motivation to exercise some days.

Overcoming challenges

Stacie's biggest challenge was to find the motivation to exercise on some days, and when she felt low, she would exercise and feel better. Stacie mentioned that the healthier she became, the easier it was to stick to her routine. She views regular exercise as an invested self-improvement venture rather than a chore that needs to be done. Stacie's advice for others is that starting is the hardest part and to see the results as long-term rather than short-term.

Loose skin

Many people who undergo significant weight loss face loose skin issues, and Stacie was no exception. She stated that she has some, but most of it is below her belly button and not visible in the pictures. Stacie, being positive about her journey, embraces her healthy new lifestyle and sees her toned body as a reward for her efforts.

Conclusion

StacieBroman's journey has inspired many, and her hard work and dedication paid off greatly. Along the way, she overcame challenges, experimented with the kinds of physical activities that worked best for her, and eventually found a routine that worked to achieve her goals. Her transformation is living proof of what can be achieved when we stay the course, and by sharing her story, she encourages all remaining in pursuit of their weight loss goals to keep pushing.
