Recently, a netizen from Guangzhou, Guangdong shared an inspiring video about their weight loss journey. In the video, a girl, who is somewhat overweight, starts her weight loss efforts. Her method is quite simple; in addition to controlling her diet, she insists on doing the “horse stance” against the wall every day. Although her daily exercise isn’t extensive, her long-term persistence yields very impressive results after a year.
In the spring, when she first began doing the “horse stance,” her legs were trembling, and she seemed to struggle to hold on. By summer, she had mastered the movement. By autumn, she had even developed some curves. Finally, by winter, not only had her figure become enviably slim, but she also had achieved a “v-shaped face.” The transformation over the four seasons is astonishing, and even actress Chen Meixing left a comment cheering her on!
Netizens have also been buzzing about this:
“You can’t lose weight without controlling your diet. I just run, from winter to summer, running between 3 to 8 kilometers a day, but mostly 5 kilometers, and I haven’t lost a pound.”
“Weight loss is all about persistence. As long as you have determination, dedication, and willpower, take meaningful steps, control your diet, and a combination of exercise with a moderate diet will surely lead to weight loss.”
“The first step is to exercise, and the second step is to maintain a disciplined diet. If you accomplish these two, it’s impossible not to lose weight, but for food lovers, that is the hardest part. Being broke is the reason why I can’t gain weight.”
The girl’s perseverance in losing weight is admirable; however, netizens have also revealed the truth: if one only insists on exercising, it doesn’t help much for weight loss, and maintaining control over one’s diet is essential. To put it bluntly, as long as one can effectively control their diet, even if the exercise is minimal, they can still lose weight. Nonetheless, the ability to consistently maintain exercise also reflects the girl’s determination and willpower, which deserves recognition.
