I was moderately active in college but everything changed when the pandemic hit and I put on 30lbs of fat over the last year and a half. The weight I gained caused alot of noticeable changes like not fitting into my clothes, stretch marks, and alot less energy.
I got a gym membership and included with it was a personal trainer session where they assessed my movement & flexibility and gave me a body composition analysis (InBody was the machine they used). Overall, I am 5'6" (22F) and weigh 218lbs with
55 lbs Intracellular Water, 33 lbs Extracellular Water, 32 lbs Dry Lean Mass, 97 lbs Body Fat Mass
I don't know how accurate those numbers are, but its clear I need to lose alot of fat. Specifically 60 lbs of fat to be within healthy limits according to my trainer. This is especially concerning to me because high cholesterol runs in my family so I know I am at risk for problems in my future if I don't watch my weight.
My personal trainer is developing an exercise regimen for me and will be teaching me how to perform all the workouts correctly, but I know that's only half the battle and I need to watch what I eat too.
My question is, for someone who is completely new to weight loss and really no experience with exercise or watching what I eat. Is it realistic to try to lose 60lbs of fat in a year?? And does anyone have any tips for me to get the ball rolling, and stay rolling? I'd really appreciate any tips or tricks that have helped you. Thanks so much!
