Losing weight is not just about diet and exercise; staying consistent can also mean learning to deal with outside opinions. A Bengaluru-based woman known as @snimsdiary on Instagram, who has lost 30 kg, shared the \u201cgreatest advice\u201d for people on a weight loss journey in an August 26 video.

\u2018Move in silence\u2019 during your weight loss journey<\/p>\n

In the video, she said the best advice she could give someone starting or already on a weight loss journey is to \u201cmove in silence\u201d.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe single greatest advice I can give you about a weight loss journey that you might be starting or might already be on, as somebody who has lost 30 kg, is to move in silence. Don\u2019t tell anybody about your goals, about your journey, about your plans,\u201d she said. She suggested keeping weight loss<\/a> goals private, unless they are being shared with people who genuinely have the person\u2019s best interests at heart.<\/p>\n

How people may derail your progress<\/p>\n

According to her, people may initially be supportive but can become less encouraging when they see someone consistently sticking to their routine and making visible changes.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs soon as you start actually showing up regularly, as soon as you start seeing changes, as soon as they start seeing that you are actually becoming a better person, they\u2019re going to start to sabotage you,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

She recalled being encouraged to indulge with comments such as, \u201cOne drink won\u2019t hurt, one cupcake won\u2019t hurt, this dessert won\u2019t hurt.\u201d She said people may also question why someone is being \u201cso uptight\u201d or taking their weight loss journey<\/a> \u201ctoo seriously\u201d.<\/p>\n

The creator also spoke about receiving comments about becoming \u201ctoo thin\u201d and being told that weight loss was \u201cnot that serious\u201d. \u201cBut it is. It is that serious and it is that deep,\u201d she said, adding that she had experienced this herself before changing the way she approached her goals.<\/p>\n

\u2018Keep it to yourself\u2019<\/p>\n

\u201cI realised that it makes people uncomfortable if they see somebody else doing the things that they wish they could or they had the discipline to,\u201d she said. Rather than allowing peer pressure to derail progress, she recommended being mindful about who gets to know about your goals.<\/p>\n

\u201cMy recommendation is to just keep it to yourself or only share with people who genuinely have your best interest at heart,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

She concluded by urging people not to let others interfere with their progress: \u201cDon\u2019t let peer pressure ruin all of your progress. Don\u2019t let people who are not trying to glow up, people who are not trying to make themselves better, ruin your progress.\u201d<\/p>\n
