Simple Method: Tracking Calories

If you're struggling with weight loss, one of the simplest methods out there is to start tracking calories. This is something that the Reddit user Varteix did and it played a big role in helping him lose 75lbs over the course of 9 months!

Taking Accountability

Another integral part of Varteix's journey was taking accountability for his own choices. He realized that his weight was his own responsibility and that he was the only one who could change the situation. Once he accepted this, it became easier for him to make better decisions regarding his food and exercise.

Believing in Yourself

It took Varteix 18 years to really start his weight loss journey. The catalyst for him was truly believing that being overweight was ruining his life and that losing weight was entirely his own choice. This mindset shift helped him to get excited about losing weight, rather than dreading it.

A Reminder to Keep Going

Varteix's journey reminds us all that no matter how difficult the journey may seem, it's important to remember that you're capable of making changes in your life. As he says, 'no matter what choices we make, time will pass all the same. All we can control is what we make of our time and where we will be when it passes.'

Inspiration to Try Things Out for Yourself

Varteix's weight loss journey is inspiring and a great reminder that small changes can make a big difference. If you're struggling with weight loss, try out tracking calories and taking accountability for your own choices. You might be surprised at what a difference it can make!
