I'm currently obese at 81kg, height 159cm (178.5lbs, 5'2.5). I have done CICO many times before but have always been excited about progress, decided to "treat myself" and ended up gaining the weight back and then some. I started CICO about a month ago at an intentionally small deficit and lost around 1.5kg so far. I was initially planning to lose weight very slowly but steadily.
HOWEVER, I have an unavoidable family event coming up in the first week of September and would like to lose some weight before then, to avoid hurtful comments. I know this is probably not the best motivation but it's extremely motivating at the moment and I'm grabbing onto anything I can!
My aim is now to lose roughly 1kg per week (total loss roughly 11kg in 11 weeks). I work in an office but I think I fall into the "lightly active" category: roughly 7,000-8,000 steps per day for most days, usually at least one day per week where I do 15,000 steps, yoga twice per week (1 hour each). I've worked out my TDEE to be 2,087 calories per day (although no idea how accurate this is!). I've also started to rock climb twice per week for about two hours per session, although I probably spend roughly 1 hour of that actually climbing. According to myfitnesspal, this burns around 800 calories per session.
Weekends are the hardest for me. My plan is to eat 1,000 calories per day during the week and 1,800 calories per day at the weekend. Is this too little? According to my calculations, this will result in 1kg weight loss per week. Does this sound right? Thanks in advance!
