Sophia Posted May 30, 2021 Share Posted May 30, 2021 So I started tracking my calories and as of today, I am down 3 pounds! I started counting my calories Wednesday so not bad for less than a week. I am sure it is mostly water weight but I am still happy. I am eating around 1,600 calories per day since my body was burning around 2,100 a day. Doing -500 for now until the weight loss slows then I will move down to 1,500 calories, then 1,400 and just keep adjusting from there. I figured this was easiest for me. I will update this thread with any progress! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ella Posted June 1, 2021 Share Posted June 1, 2021 Congrats! I hope you see your first milestone of 10 pounds. I remember when I lost weight when I was younger and saw the scale go down 10 pounds, I felt so amazing. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scarlett Posted June 3, 2021 Share Posted June 3, 2021 Keep up the great work, you got this! I know it can be an uphill battle but seeing progress really does make the process feel real. I think if you keep that motivation going and you set small goals each week for yourself, you will reach your goal weight in no time! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emma Posted June 5, 2021 Share Posted June 5, 2021 Nearly a week later, how are things going for you? I hope you are still making progress with everything. Let me know if you run into any issues, I can try and help you out. I helped a friend of mine lose a considerable amount of weight a few years ago. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sophia Posted June 6, 2021 Author Share Posted June 6, 2021 Thanks everyone! I have been weighing myself daily and the weight has leveled out. I am only down about 3.5 pounds which as I said, was likely mostly water weight. I am going to see the scale go down more in the coming weeks. I think I just have to be patient. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sophia Posted June 13, 2021 Author Share Posted June 13, 2021 So a bit of an update, I am down another pound. Slow and steady I suppose. I am going to start swimming this week and hopefully that helps the weight continue to come off! I read swimming and just walking in water burns a ton of calories. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
