Hello. I’m hoping maybe some of you can guide me in my goal to lose some weight and let me know if I’m doing something wrong. I’ve been doing CICO for a solid two months now and have lost only 6 lbs. I’m not sure if there’s any underlying issue that’s making it hard for me to lose weight or anything. Here’s some info that might help figure things out:
Starting weight in January: 246 lbs Current: 240
I track everything that I eat and drink. I have coffee and tea a lot but I track it on MFP. Protein and veggie some days, other days pasta or so. All of January to mid-feb I limited myself to 1500 calories. From mid-feb to now I’m on 1200 calories/day. I’ve had maybe 6 cheat days all together.
I go to the gym 2-3 days a week and do cardio mostly. I’ll try to go more but right now my schedule only allows me to go this much.
I think I should have lost at least 10-15 lbs by now? I weigh myself every 5 days.
I count calories that are provided on the food packages or google (ex. Boneless chicken breads pan seared 50g calories). Should I invest in a food scale?
I am on low dose of anti depressants and a high dose of migraine meds (these specifically I cannot live without). Maybe these are hindering weight loss?
Any opinions/feedback is appreciated.
Thanks!
Edit: I’m going to put in that there are days where I only have time for one meal a day which would be 7-800 calories and a tea/coffee. It’s unhealthy, but I’ve had under 1000 calorie days so I know I am not overeating.
