THANKING THE SUB & Please suggest the pace at which i should plan to lose weight.

Guys,

I am 28F

Height 5 2'.. CW: 145 lbs.... 1st goal weight 128 lbs. final goal 123 lbs.

I went through a breakup and gained a lot of weight. I am been wanting to lose 22 lbs (10 kgs) for the past 2 years. I have not ever kept my promise to myself and been slacking off. I want to go back to my 121 lbs so that I can fit into my old clothes.

So, I decided to promise someone else this time and keep at at. I found this sub. I am extremely motivated by all your journeys and feel like I belong to some community. I will start my weight loss journey today. I will post my regimen and progress every single day here and probably can have a positive impact in someone else's health journey.

But I want to avoid loose skin. I was planning to target 4 kg (8.8 lbs ) per month. i.e 2.2 lbs per week. Is that safe.? Please advise
Any other precautions to take. I haven't started the journey yet.

P.S: I dont want any of u to waste your time on my break up. The guy came back and I politely refused to reconcile.

P.P.S: This is not about revenge bod or anything. I want to get healthier since I am getting older.

How to get back on track?

Hey I 18m started my weight loss journey last September and have been going to the gym consistently 6x a week and have been in a calorie deficit. I had lost 20kg during that time this is the first time I’ve taken the gym seriously and became so proud of myself.

However the start of February was different I’ve become so unmotivated and couldn’t even go outside and have fallen of track. I have been eating way over my daily limit. I just hoped on the scaled and I’m 5kg up from my lowest tbh I don’t know what to do. I probably need some encouragement as I don’t really have anyone to.

Has anyone been in this position or anything similar could you please share your experience and how you overcome this situation.

Recent adhd diagnosis and weight loss

F | 19 | 5’1 | 243lbs I was diagnosed with adhd literally yesterday and I’ve been doing a lot of thinking. I’ve spent the last couple of years trying to work on my health and lose weight. I’ve done a lot of research and I’ve tried so many ways to lose weight including very unhealthy ways (before I got educated). I could never stick with it. I got bored and went back to my old eating habits. I know weightloss is crazy hard but it’s literally been impossible for me to stick with. I really felt like I was just gross and lazy for not being able to lose weight and eat healthier. I feel like I’ve finally cracked the code and I’m really excited for the next couple of months. My doctors want me to try some adhd medication and I’m hoping it gives me what I need to really focus on weight loss and getting healthy. I’ve lost a couple pounds since I started metformin for my pcos so that also helps! If anyone else has adhd and is on a weight loss journey I’d love to hear your experiences! Very open to general advice as well!

Feeling light headed since starting new weight loss regimen

Hi everybody! This is my first time making a post here, although I lurk a lot and this sub has been very motivating. Thank you. I lost 22lbs (188-166) in 2022 by simply doing crossfit 3x a week and walking. I wasn't tracking calories, and eventually I hit a plateau with my weight loss and decided I would need to track. I've also started working out 5x a week. Ever since I've started purposefully trying to restrict my calories/exercising more, I've been feeling light headed from time to time...but the past two weeks have been worse, and I'm just not sure what's going on. I don't heavily restrict carbs. I eat fruit daily and indulge in sweets on occasion. I typically have red meat twice a week. If anybody thinks posting my food logs would help, I wouldn't mind sharing, I'm just not sure how to share images. Has anybody gone through something similar?

I'll post my average cals in/cals out in case that could be helpful. My goal is to be in a 750 calorie deficit a day, but some days I get more or less. Feb 19-25 1331 Cals in-2,157 cals out Feb 26-Mar 4 1514 Cals in-2544 Cals out (this week is on trend to match last week)

Thank you all so much...and on a positive note I lost 5 more lbs in February.

Women’s weight loss and clothes

Not the best community for the post but idk which one to go to; I’ve lost about 30 pounds and clothes fit way more awkwardly than before. Women’s clothing sizes were always inconsistent but going from an 18 and refusing to try a 20 (which I probably needed at one point) down to 14s being too big is so stressful. Jeans are awkwardly baggy in the waist and fit me in the thighs. Torrid clothes are ugly and too expensive. And sizing between stores is so inconsistent. I haven’t been down to a 14 (maybe even 12 bc the Forever 21 14s are too big) in a while so all this fluctuation is stressing me out. Any tips?

How did this guy lose 11 pounds a week?

Hey guys I'm new to the weight-loss journey and just trying to figure out what is a reasonable amount to set my weight loss goal at. For reference, I weight 180, and 6 feet tall, and am trying to get to 150.

Anyway, this guy I follow says he lost 44 pounds in 4 weeks. https://www.instagram.com/p/ChC4kGaAzxl/?hl=en

How is this even possible? That means he lost 11 pounds a week, or 1.57 pounds a day. If we assume more than 2/3 of that is water weight and muscle, that's still 0.5 pounds of fat a day, which is a calorie deficit of around 1800 calories per day.

From what I've been reading it's normally good to try to aim for a calorie deficit of 500 calories per day. Am I understanding weight loss wrong? Is there more to just a calorie deficit?

I need advice and encouragement!

Hi everyone! I (28f) 5’6 am currently obese and weigh 238lbs. I’ve gained 83 pounds since September 2020. I used to sit comfortably 155-160lbs, and it’s taken such a toll on my self esteem. I’ve always struggled with my weight, I was overweight growing up from like 8-14. Then I had a period from 19-23 where I worked out 3 hours a day, carb cycled and meal prepped etc, which turned into orthorexia. I’ve definitely had disordered eating for years.. anyway— RIGHT NOW, I’m currently intermittent fasting. I do drink my coffee with creamer though, I’m not sure I’m willing to give that up honestly.. I’ve also been walking on the treadmill for 30 min every other day and doing 1.5 miles at 3mph. I’m not sure if I have any metabolic issues or hormone problems, I have a doctor appointment set for April 4th with a new Doctor because my last one was inappropriate😭 I really don’t eat like crap, I eat lean meats and sweet potatoes mostly. I need to cut out the pretzels though, those are my downfall.. What do you recommend ? I really need help, I want to get back down to 155, and I’m willing to put in the work even if it takes a long time, I’d rather a sustainable weight loss rather than restriction and quick weight loss.
