Introduction

The weight loss journey of Reddit user Fredakitty is a testament to how gradual changes in behavior can lead to great results.

Diet is Key

Fredakitty's weight loss secret? Evaluating and ultimately changing her eating habits. She's now a believer that you truly can't out-train a bad diet. Bye-bye stress eating habits, and goodbye late-night snacking. She aimed to stay within around 1200 calories a day, while incorporating filling and healthy meals thanks to the subreddit "1200isplenty."

Exercise Is Still Important

Though she'd always been super active with yoga and gym time, Fredakitty admits she used her love of exercise as an excuse to fuel some pretty bad eating habits. Now her fitness routine complements her new eating habits instead of being an excuse to indulge. Yay for consistent positive change!

Advice for Aspiring Weight Losers

Fredakitty's advice? Start with small changes, like getting rid of one unhealthy eating habit at a time. Count your calories with an app like MyFitnessPal or similar. Try to exercise when possible, to supplement your diet changes. Don't beat yourself up over slip-ups; just get back on track the next day. Remember, what works for one person may not work for another, so it's important to be patient and experiment to find out what works for you.

Conclusion

Fredakitty's inspiring weight loss journey shows that anyone can lose weight with some behavior changes, patience and self-love. There's truly no secret formula to losing weight. Start small, like evaluating your diet and cutting back on snacks, and watch as the pounds start to shed.
