Small changes, big impact

With a slow and steady process of small changes, Reddit user Miles2goB4 was able to achieve remarkable progress in her weight loss journey. She started at 220 pounds and has now reached 154 pounds, losing a total of 36 pounds in 2 years. Her secret? Nothing really fancy. She just paid more attention to what she was eating by tracking her calorie intake with MyFitnessPal. Rather than cutting out certain foods, she ate in moderation, which allowed her to enjoy treats while achieving her goals.

Stay active

Miles2goB4 also made an effort to be more active in her life. She started a more active job and tried to stay active in every aspect. Simple things like standing instead of sitting, parking farther away from the store, and more walking in general helped her burn more calories. She joined games on DietBet to stay motivated and accountable as she does not like to lose. These changes were practical and easy for anyone to adopt, making it easier to stick to them.

Skin Snapback

A Reddit user greenpinkie asked the question on how she managed to get her skin to snap back so well. Miles2goB4 replied that since her weight loss was gradual, it gave her skin a chance to adjust as she lost weight. The science behind it is that when a person loses fat gradually instead of quickly, the skin has reduced elasticity, allowing it to snap back more easily.

Keys to success

Miles2goB4 shared two keys to her success. First was learning to become more mindful of her eating habits and being patient throughout her weight loss journey. Second, she found a supportive community online in subreddits like /r/loseit and DietBet which allowed her to share her journey and seek advice when things got hard.

Conclusion

Miles2goB4's weight loss journey offers inspiration and practical tips to anyone seeking to lose weight in a healthy and sustainable way. Her simple yet effective approach to fitness and diet offers a reminder that drastic changes are not always necessary. Instead, gradual change, perseverance, and a supportive community can make a difference. So, why not try to follow her tips and experience the difference yourself?
