Need advice and encouragement. My efforts are yielding 0 progress.

Stats: Age: 32 Sex: F Weight: 190 Height: 5’2

Since I started working from home in mid March, I’ve made some significant changes in an effort to lose weight. Each morning I do 30 minutes of kickboxing to get my heart rate up, help my mood, and hopefully contribute to weight loss. I walk my dog daily and consistently hitting my 9K step goal.

I use a fit bit to track steps and food. I eat 1800 calories a day at this point. According to the fit bit, I’m running a daily calorie deficit between 500-800.

But I haven’t lost a single pound in a month and I’m feeling pretty hopeless right now. I will admit I eat a lot of carbs and that might be holding me back. Maybe I need to change the type of food I’m eating rather than just hitting calorie goals?

Any advice from people who have been in similar situations would be much appreciated. I’ve had my thyroid checked recently and it’s fine.

I’m close to 200 lbs and it’s a threshold I just never want to cross. I’d like to get pregnant soon but I don’t feel right about doing so when I’m this overweight. I’m stressing because I need to lose weight to start trying for a baby, I’ve made big changes, but see no results.
