Weight Loss Success

A Reddit user, 'officialerniedingo,' has shared their successful weight loss journey on the platform, going from 231lbs to 185lbs, losing 46lbs in total. The user accomplished this achievement in 3 months, and they have managed to keep the weight off for another 3-4 months. This account details their second attempt at weight loss, and this time they plan to keep the weight off for good.

Effective Methods

According to the Reddit user, they used calorie counting and run tracking apps on their mobile phone to keep their eating and exercise habits in check. They ensured that their sugar, fat and calorie intake remained relatively low. The user exercised for about an hour each day, typically playing squash, running or using a cross-trainer.

Lapses in Progress

The Reddit user experienced some setbacks in their journey when they suffered a non-epileptic seizure. They attributed the incident to their unbalanced lifestyle of limited sleep, excessive alcohol consumption and intense exercise. They have since been taking it easy and not losing much weight but are still happy with the progress they have made.

Moving Forward

The user is currently looking to regain some of the muscle mass they may have lost over the years and to tone their stomach. Their progress serves as an inspiration to others who may be looking to lose weight and live healthier lifestyles.

Conclusion

It's important to note that weight loss journeys may not be smooth sailing, but with determination and effective methods, it's possible to achieve one's desired weight goals. For those looking to make a positive change in their eating and exercise habits, using apps and considering their calorie, sugar and fat intake could be a helpful starting point.
