Introduction

Weight loss journeys can be tough, but they are worth it once you reach your goal. One Reddit user, flowiest, lost 55lbs in just 11 months and achieved her dream weight of 134lbs. Her journey has inspired countless others to embark on a similar adventure. Here, we'll delve into her story to see what tips and tricks we can learn from her success.

Tips for Success

Flowiest achieved her weight loss goal through a combination of diet and exercise, namely calories-in and calories-out. She focused on high-nutrient, low-calorie foods, while also engaging in occasional exercise such as long runs or walking up hills. One of her keys to success was calorie cycling, where she consumed either 1500, 1350 or even 1200 calories per day, depending on how active she was or if she had plateaued.

Avoiding Loose Skin

Some people worry about developing loose skin after losing a lot of weight, but flowiest says that wasn't an issue in her case. She attributes this to her diet, which focused on nutrient-dense foods, and a slow, steady weight loss. She didn't lose an unhealthy amount of weight too fast, and that likely helped her avoid any loose skin.

Finding Motivation

For flowiest, finding a dress she loved was a big motivator for hitting her weight goal. She managed to find a smaller-sized version of the dress she wore a year prior and was able to wear it again. Other people might find motivation in things like group exercise classes, workout buddies, or a reward system for reaching different milestones.

Conclusion

When it comes to weight loss journeys, there are countless ways to achieve success. Flowiest's story is just one example of what is possible. If you're interested in embarking on a similar journey, try out some of her tips and tricks for yourself. Remember that it's a marathon, not a sprint, and that success will come with dedication and hard work.
