Embarking on a wellness journey to lose weight requires patience and realistic expectations. Results may not be immediate, and occasional indulgences are okay. One woman shared her experience of naturally shedding 5st (31kg) by maintaining a calorie deficit and offered valuable tips for kickstarting weight loss journeys.
In a TikTok video, she emphasized the importance of not waiting for motivation to begin the journey. Starting small with gradual habit changes, like switching from whole milk to almond milk or incorporating more physical activity into daily routines, can lead to significant long-term results.
She advised against comparing oneself to fitness influencers and setting unrealistic weight loss goals. Instead of aiming for drastic transformations, focusing on achievable milestones and a balanced diet is key. Exercise alone may not lead to weight loss if not paired with a calorie deficit.
The woman highlighted the need for individualized approaches to weight loss, emphasizing that what works for one person may not work for another. Maintaining a well-rounded diet with adequate protein, carbohydrates, fruits, and vegetables is essential for overall health during the weight loss journey.
