I’m trying to lose some weight (at absolute most 10lbs/5kg) - specifically fat. I don’t have an exact “calorie deficit target”, but these past days I’ve been in a deficit ranging from -300 to -700.
I’m average height for a female (5’5/166 cm) and already on the slim side (according to bmi). I have a small frame and short waist, which makes me appear stubbier and less “curvy”.
I have always wanted to either lose weight or tone up. I’ve lost some weight, even too much, but gained back healthy weight. Still struggling to get that “toned” look. I’m really active and have started implementing more strength training (body weight) and have now divided it into splits that focuses on different body parts. Not sure how it’s working since I’m very impatient to get results. ;’)
The weight loss isn’t really the main problem, but the deficit is. Past times I’ve tried to be in a deficit, I’ve ended up hungry and exhausted without any energy. This time I’ve managed to sustain basically normal energy levels and haven’t been suffering. Of course, calorie counting takes up time and effort, but that’s not too much of an issue. I always feel really down during calorie deficits, especially since I have pmdd which makes that part of the month an absolute mess.
I also find myself fixating a lot on counting calories and it’s easy to get stuck - like it’s scary to stop.
Any advice?
