Introduction

Many people who desire to lose weight often get discouraged because they feel like they're not making progress or are not seeing results. To track their progress, people often rely on weighing scales to measure their weight loss, but what if someone doesn't own a weighing scale? That's exactly what a 24-year-old female reddit user, power2penguins, did.

The Beginning

In her reddit post, power2penguins mentioned that she was around 145 pounds before starting this weight loss journey. She didn't have a specific weight goal in mind, but simply wanted to feel better about herself and her body. Power2penguins decided to start by making small changes to her diet, such as reducing how much processed food she was consuming and increasing her water intake.

Changes and Accomplishments

Though power2penguins didn't have a scale to measure her weight loss, she noted several non-scale victories throughout her journey. She noticed that she had more energy, was sleeping better, and was more motivated to exercise. After three months, she even noticed that her clothes were looser on her body, indicating that she had lost some weight. These accomplishments motivated power2penguins to continue her journey and make even more changes.

Lessons Learned

Power2penguins realized that losing weight doesn't always have to be about obsessively tracking every calorie and weighing herself every day. She learned to listen to her body and make healthy choices based on how she felt. She also learned that small changes can have a big impact in the long run, and that sustainability should be the ultimate goal of any weight loss journey.

Conclusion

While power2penguins didn't have a scale to track her weight loss journey, she was still able to make meaningful progress and feel better about herself. Her journey serves as a reminder that weight loss doesn't have to be about the number on the scale, but rather about feeling good, healthy, and confident in your own skin. If you're embarking on your own weight loss journey, try making small changes and listening to your body to see what works best for you.
