Woman reveals diet plan she followed for five stone weight loss – how did she do it?

The Reddit user proudly showed off her impressive weight loss.

Using the username “Kroliz”, the 26-year-old woman lost 75lbs in total.

This equates to just over five stone, a large amount of weight for anyone to shed.

The Reddit user revealed she shrank down from from 17.5 stone to a much more petite 12 stone in just six months.

So how did she do it? The dieter revealed running was the key.

She also detailed her typical diet plan in a day.

Kroliz said: “I took up running and some light weight lifting and just doing portion control, avoiding fattier foods and most carbs and sugar :)”

She revealed she eats a diet plan high in protein and low in refine carbs.

“A typical day looks like this,” she said, “1 egg and fruit for breakfast grilled chicken, cauliflower rice, and broccoli for lunch and something similar for dinner.

“Some form of protein and veggie and maybe one other side. And for snacks I usually do cheese, granola, fruit, chips and hummus, etc. :)”

However, she doesn’t tot up the calories, like some dieters.

“I don’t really count calories, I just try and stay under a certain amount of carbs and sugar each day and have 50 to 60g of protein a day,” she said.

“I’ve failed in the past because I made it too complicated and restrictive so this time around I’ve been trying to be more intuitive with my eating if that makes sense?”

One Reddit user asked how she began running.

The dieter said: “I started by using the elliptical and building up my endurance for running and to also save my joints and once I lost more weight and could go long distances on the elliptical, then I moved to the treadmill and tried to just jog for as long as I could and then try and beat my last time each time I ran.

“I am a much better outdoor runner than gym runner, I just find it much easier.

“And I’d say ‘okay I’m gonna run until I get to that stop sign’ and if I got to the stop sign and felt okay, I’d set the next goal and keep doing that seeing how many I can achieve.

“Also, good music or podcast/show/etc helps a lot! Just stay consistent and you’ll get better and better :)”
