Real-Life Weight Loss Story: Weight loss isn’t just about hitting the gym or trying the latest fad diet—it’s about shifting your mindset and staying consistent. That’s the vision of fitness trainer and weight-loss coach Indya Agos, who has achieved an inspiring transformation by shedding 120 pounds (approximately 54 kg) naturally. But how did she do it?
Recently, Indya took to Instagram to share her tried-and-tested approach to losing weight. In a post titled “I’ve lost 120 lbs naturally + if I want to lose 10 lbs in the next 5 weeks…this is what I’d do,” she revealed five practical tips to help you lose 10 pounds (about 5 kg) in just 35 days—without compromising on your health or your favourite foods.
Her advice is simple yet effective: focus on setting small, achievable milestones and work towards them consistently. “Whether you wanna lose 10 pounds or 100, this is a great place to start,” Indya wrote. “It’s exactly how I began—slowly, but surely. And it works.” Curious about her approach? Here are the five weight-loss tips she swears by to kickstart your journey and achieve amazing results.
– Start Tracking Food + Get Into A Calorie Deficit
You never know how much you eat if you don’t pay attention. The fitness trainer urged her followers to view tracking as an opportunity to learn more about their eating habits. “Remember, nobody is making you do this. You have a goal you’re working towards. When it gets overwhelming or you get frustrated, remind yourself WHY it’s important for you to reach this goal,” she added.
– Walking
Walking is THE most underrated form of exercise. Indya suggested increasing the daily step count by at least 2,000 steps (or no less than an intentional 30-minute walk daily) if you want to lose 5 kg in 35 days. “Especially when you don’t ‘FEEL LIKE IT’,” she added.
– Enjoying Food
The weight-loss coach suggested allowing yourself to enjoy food that you love and can fit within your macros while you are trying to lose 5 kg within 35 days (or during your weight-loss journey). “This will help you LET GO of the ‘all or nothing mentality’ + most likely stop potential binging. Also, balance = sustainability,” she explained.
– Increase Protein + Veggies Intake
Per Indya, protein is the key ingredient for fat loss as it helps build muscle and ‘muscle burns fat’. “Fibre is the key ingredient to making you feel full for longer. The two (protein and fibre) of these together are the secret to success,” she added.
– Be Kind To Yourself + Set Realistic Goals
Most importantly, during your weight loss journey, it is important to be kind to yourself and set realistic goals. “Remember, consistency is how we get results, and the only way that we can be consistent is if it’s sustainable for us and our lifestyle,” the weight loss coach explained.
