How this determined couple lost nearly 400 pounds in weight in just two years

Lexi weighed almost 500 pounds when she started her weight-loss journey

At just 25 years old, Lexi Reed weighed nearly 400 pounds. The young woman, from Indiana in the United States, knew she was putting her health — and potentially her life — in jeopardy, which is why, on January 1, 2016, she decided something had to change.Kicking off the new year with her biggest weight-loss resolution yet, Reed teamed up with her husband, Danny, to work their way toward a healthier lifestyle. Now, almost two years later, the couple have collectively lost over 400 pounds as they continue to stick to their resolution to live healthier."The first 30 days we didn't eat out," Reed told local news station WTHI-TV. "We didn't party with our friends or anything anymore; we didn't have cheat meals. We just were constantly healthy. I think after that first 30 days, it just became so much easier because we had learned what we couldn't eat. From there on, it wasn't a resolution anymore; it just became our lifestyle."Once Reed lost her first 100 pounds (7 stone), she decided to take her journey to social media, where she started her Instagram account, @fatgirlfedup. There, she posts gym selfies, meal ideas, and motivational quotes for an audience of more than 56,000 followers. Reed never expected her weight-loss journey would matter to more than her immediate circle of friends — much less for it to go viral. But now that she has such a large Instagram audience, she hopes her weight-loss journey can motivate others."I just hope that if do come to my page, they can find inspiration; they can find somebody to say it's possible," she said. "You don't have to have surgery, and you don't have to pay crazy amounts of money just to eat healthy or to have a trainer. Just move, start walking — all those things are just going to make a difference."Lexi is now down to a size 10 from a size 28, and Danny has also dropped several clothes sizes, they told ABC 온라인 바카라 게임. She says there isn't any special secret to how they lost all the weight - she simply credits changes to her diet and exercise routine. But there have been other benefits to Lexi's major lifestyle makeover: she says setting (and achieving) weight-loss goals with her husband by her side has made their relationship even stronger, and the experience inspired her to head back to school to study nutrition."There are no words to explain the feeling of saving your own life," she said. "Going into 2018 I have nothing but a newfound happiness for this life I am living. I no longer am a prisoner in my own body and instead of just existing in my own life, I'm finally alive. Every day I wake up is a blessing."(h/t WTHI-TV)
