A young lady took to her TikTok account and shared her weight loss journey with her followers.
In the video uploaded by @cloudxlee_, she showed herself when she weighed 90kg. She then captured herself after losing 30kg, making her 60kg. She wore the jeans she used to wear when she weighed 90kg to give her followers a sense of how much she lost.
The jeans were also for her to make people understand that they become different in terms of looks when one loses weight. Presumably, people thought she was a different person from the girl who used to weigh 90kg
"From 90 kg to 60 kg, this is for the people claiming it's two different people. When you lose weight, you will look like a totally new person, check out my profile for some tips."

Expert advises that clear weight loss goals need to be set
Speaking to Briefly News, certified personal trainer and fitness expert Bonge Gumede advised that weight loss needs clear goals:
"One would need to outline their goals - what is that you would like achieve from your journey and keeping those goals achievable and breaking them down into smaller milestones to track your progress effectively. So start small - be it increasing your daily physical activity, taking more walks/jogs before gradually working your way into either a gym setting or signing up to a running club."
She also added that this does not only apply to weight loss, it applies to toning and muscle-building:
"After setting your goals it’ll give you a good idea of what your eating habits need to look like; being in a deficit of your goal is weight loss or a calorie surplus if your goal is muscle building and/or weight gain. I usually encourage options first and a balanced approach as you do not need to give up your favourite foods to achieve your fitness goals."

The video garnered over 13k likes, with many online users showering the woman with congratulatory messages on her weight loss journey. Some asked for tips.
