She Lost 60 Pounds in 15 Months by Walking and These 5 Simple Habits

Do you want to lose weight without stepping into a gym? Gina Frattini is a weight loss warrior who dropped 60 pounds in 15 months without Ozempic or other weight loss drugs. In a new social media post, she reveals the simple lifestyle changes responsible for losing weight – no gym membership required. "5 habits that took me from a size 12 to a size 2 naturally and in 15 months," she writes, revealing her "non-negotiable five."

Her first habit was eating enough protein. "Minimum 30g protein 3x a day is always my goal!" she says. "Ensure you are putting real protein before processed proteins. You can't expect to lose weight and tone up when you're eating less than a good chunk of protein daily or if you aren't eating at all. Stop skipping meals! If you're serious about weight loss and muscle building – this is non-negotiable."

Next, wake up earlier. "Before work, before kids, before other responsibilities. 5-530am is the quietest time to get in a weighted walk for me or a run on the treadmill. Make a habit of getting up early. Make it a habit to move your body during that time. I love walking weighted!" she says.

Next, lift weights. "Lift as heavy as you can while challenging yourself, every time! Listen, you will not get bulky. You will get toned. You need to lift 3x a week. Start light, start building consistency and do full body," she says, "but keep at it and increase weights gradually!"

Make sure to drink enough water. "Ensure you are properly hydrated. I drink half my body weight in ounces of water! Example 120 lbs, I stick with 60 ounces of water daily! I love having electrolytes and colostrum in my cup daily! I can immediately tell when I haven't hit my water intake for the day," she continues.

The final habit? Get enough sleep, "8-10 hours a night," she says. "Yup, skip the Netflix and go to bed earlier so you can wake up earlier and hit the 2nd one. Proper sleep is crucial for recovery, fat burn, muscle gain and proper health. You have to get enough sleep!"
