Introduction: Worrying De-Motivation
Weight loss journeys, though wholly rewarding in the long run, can be de-motivating during the ongoing process. This is particularly true when the user sees little to no results, despite their efforts. Our Reddit user, who has lost 10 pounds in 3 months, is struggling to see the difference in their back progress update.
The Details of the Journey
The user started their weight loss journey at 225lbs, and aimed to lose 50lbs in total. They’ve managed to lose 10lbs so far, through strength training and following a calorie-controlled diet. While they are proud of their progress, the latest update post has them worried.
The Struggle to See Progress
The Reddit post shows a series of photos comparing the user’s back before and after the 3-month period. While the difference is visible, the user is struggling to see the progress. This is a common occurrence among those struggling with weight loss, making it difficult to stay motivated.
Takeaways: Persistence and Discipline
While progress can sometimes be slow, or even hard to see, the most important aspect of the journey is to remain disciplined, and continue putting in the effort. Consistency is key. Small changes in diet and activity levels, can lead to big results. As for the Reddit user, they must remain patient and persistent, and continue working towards their goal.
Conclusion: Celebrating Progress Over Perfection
Ultimately, it’s important to keep in mind that the journey towards achieving healthier habits and losing weight is different for everyone. The progress of others may not be comparable or relevant to our own journeys. Celebrating small wins, and focusing on the positive changes that have already been made, is a great way to stay motivated and committed to the journey.
