I Lost 100 POUNDS in Just a Year Without Going to the Gym or Counting Calories — Here’s How

One woman shared the simple steps she took to lose 100 pounds in just one year without ever going to the gym or counting calories.

Liza Marie, of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, said she spent years being “the biggest girl in every room she entered.”

She recalled “hiding under baggy T-shirts” and “hating herself” as she “tried everything to lose weight” to no avail.

But when the pandemic hit in 2020, she decided it was time to turn her life around — and by making a series of small “lifestyle changes,” she was able to lose 130 pounds.

Liza said she would try things like dieting or exercising, but would “give up quickly” because she felt so “defeated” when she “didn’t see results right away.”

The Pittsburgh native has become a viral sensation for sharing her impressive weight loss journey online

But according to the Pittsburgh native, who has become a viral sensation for sharing her impressive weight-loss journey online, she quickly discovered that the key to her success was “starting small” and taking things “one step at a time.”

She used a method called habit stacking, which involves “building and maintaining one healthy habit before trying a new one.”

First, she started increasing her daily step count to at least 8,000 before also improving her water intake to a gallon a day.

After that, she started exercising at home twice a week and making most of her meals herself instead of eating out.

She also started cutting off her screen time at 9 p.m. to make sure she got enough sleep.

As time went on, she increased her home work-outs to three a week, eventually going to five.

“I didn’t go to the gym until I lost 100 pounds at home following these habits,” she explained on Instagram. “And I didn’t start tracking my eating until about six months into my trip.

“Weight loss is not an overnight transformation. It’s a series of small decisions, individual choices that are made over and over again.’

She is now passionate about helping others who are struggling to lose weight and recently started her own business called Liza Marie Fit which offers online coaching.

The weight loss advocate has also released a book, titled All The Things, packed with tips for shedding the pounds.

Liza admits that while it wasn’t easy to get to where she is today, she truly believes others can achieve what she did if they put their mind to it.

‘It was difficult. One day was harder than the next, but I persevered and made progress,” she wrote on her website.

“Here I am now – happier than ever and proud of my transformation. The results I’ve gotten with consistent dedication and mindset changes are crazy.

“I never focused on setting a goal to lose weight, I just wanted to be healthy and feel good in my body.”

In the end, she added that while her physical transformation has been very beneficial, the mental changes are the most “rewarding.”

“My greatest reward by far is the person I became along the way,” she gushed. “When I started my journey, I was on my own.

“I had no guidance and no support. I share my journey and the knowledge I have gained to inspire others to start living a happier and healthier life.
