Just found this community, and I've been really enjoying lurking and seeing how people are doing.
I'm 20F, 5'5", 142lbs. I've been trying to get down to about 120lbs for a while now; I gained a lot of weight since starting university, and it's causing discomfort and pain (a lot of the extra weight has gone to my chest).
Currently, I'm eating at my BMR, ~1400cals a day. On a bad day, I might go up to 1500-1600, but I also workout minimum 4-5 days a week. Started at 1hr of weight lifting a day, but I've slid down to 30mins due to school commitments. In the past week, I've started doing a bit of cardio (elliptical). My stamina is poor as I've never been a cardio person, but I've been doing 10mins minimum, taking a break, and then doing what more I can.
It's been almost 3 weeks since I really started, and I saw the loss of one pound before going back up. Am I expecting things to go too quickly? I'm really new to the concept of intentional weight loss, and so I don't really know what to expect. Do you have any advice? Thank you in advance!
