"Healthy" in quotes because I know it's a subjective term that varies from person to person.
I began calorie counting in February, on Feb 21st is when I weighed myself for the first time in a while at 177lbs. (I'm female, 28 years old, and 5 ft 4 in) Since then, I have eased myself into ~1600 daily calories at a ~375 deficit. I average between 8-9k steps per day, and exercise doing strength and cardio 3-4x per week on a regular schedule. According to the gym scale, I'm now at 168 lbs and have definitely noticed that my waist has shrunk a bit and my clothes fit looser.
I am curious, as I have never counted calories before, (in a non-disordered eating way) if this is a sustainable rate to be losing weight at, as I don't want to end up crashing out because I was being too hard on myself, or being impatient and wanting to speed the process along.
I've lost just about 10 pounds in about 5 weeks - is this a sustainable weight loss rate or should I ease up?
