20lbs down because I forgot to cancel the free trial

I downloaded the lose it app, just to give it a go after every other weight loss attempt failed.. didn’t really use it and then forgot to cancel the free trial and was charged for it. My brain can’t cope with spending that money and not using the app.. so I started tracking everything.

I’m f30, 5’3, started at 153lbs, now 132lbs since the start of May. I also started eating more protein and being a little more conscious about where my calories are coming from. Have otherwise not changed my diet much, which has been key to this being sustainable for me!

Loving fitting into my clothes again and feeling more like me!

Tdee?

Hello! I was wondering if maybe someone could help me figure out what my tdee is. I am 78kg, 164cm and 22F.

I walk 25k steps every day (at a pace of 5- 5.2 km/h). My Samsung Health app puts my TDEE at 2200.

I feel as though thats a bit low and whenever I go to online sites to figure out my tdee im not sure what my activity level is.

I remember this one site, i think it was health calc, that put my tdee at 3200.

The other ones put me at 2500 which I feel is the most accurate.

I'm not sure what my BMR is, but the one time i went to a nutrionist she told me I should eat around 1326kcal to see a weight loss of 0.5kg per week + minimal activity so 30 mins x 3 days a week. Online calculators tell me mine is 1500.

First weight loss milestone: achieved!

Hi y’all! Just wanted to share my happy dance! As of this morning, I weigh less than 200 lbs for the first time in 10+ years!

Since mid-May I’ve been exercising 4-5 days a week, filling up on less calorie dense foods, tracking calories and macros with Noom, and taking Metformin (also through Noom).

It has absolutely felt like a lot of work, but I also feel better than I have in a long time which is highly motivating (along with the scale moving and my clothes getting loose of course).

I still have a long way to go to reach my long term goals but it feels doable for the first time. And I keep reminding myself that I didn’t gain the weight overnight so it’s totally normal and okay that it takes awhile to lose it.

Is it safe?

I’m 13, 5,3 and I’m 58kg. 7 weeks ago I was 64kg. I know it’s fast but I just don’t know if it’s safe to lose 6kg in 7 weeks. I’m gonna be trying to lose more weight when I get of school for 6 weeks but I wanna pace it so I don’t just end up putting it back on if you know what I mean? Is 6kg a safe amount to lose in 6 weeks.

Also, the reason I’m saying this is because the weight loss from before is about 14 pounds I think. I just wanna be safe and healthy. I’m not rushing anything and no I’m not an utter freak about food. I don’t calorie count or anything like that. Just eating more healthy ( hearing the stories of people getting ED’s and stunted growth definitely scared me) so I just want to be safe.

Mods, I know you’re not allowed to let people give advice to minors but I’m only asking the yes or no question.

Cheers

Edit : Also to people saying I’m at a normal weight, I checked the NHS bmi scale for teens. I am NOT at a healthy weight.

Also I cannot speak to a trusted adult or a doctor!

Also I’ve been… heavy all my life. 60kg at 10 is not healthy

Advice on food boredom?

If I eat one more chicken breast or hard boiled egg I will throw up 🤢

I tend to hyperfixate on meals and solely eat that meal for a couple weeks straight. Which has worked great for me! I’ve lost 7 lbs in 40 days. (Around 1.2 lbs a week) doing a 500 calorie deficit (1.2k cals - 1.5k cals averaging)

The typical WIEIAD would be 2 eggs, 400g chicken breast, 1 apple, 1 banana, 125-300g quinoa mixed with brown rice. I ate that almost everyday until I became sick of it.

So far the foods (off the top of my head) I have gotten sick of are:

• chicken breast
• rice
• broccoli
• potatoes
• tomatoes
• whole meal bread

Basically just every healthy food 😭😭

Once I got sick of chicken breast I moved onto potatoes because I learned they rank no.1 for satiety so I ate them for a week then got sick of them. Then I used boiled eggs for my protein source and got sick of them too.

But for me it’s not even to the point that I enjoy the food. I understand not all food has to taste good - however for me, I can’t stomach those foods anymore. Physically I cannot eat them

For me it’s not just about weight loss I’m also focusing on nutrition ensuring I get good protein so my muscle mass doesn’t decrease and also fibre so I don’t end up getting bowel cancer by age 40.

Is this just a me problem? Any advice would be really greatly appreciated

I know this is such a silly post but I genuinely don’t know what’s wrong with me and why I suddenly have the ick for every food

Maintenance tips please for a chronic yo-yo dieter?

Hi Lose it Friends,

This chart shows my weight ups and downs since Nov of 2018 until now, July of 2025

https://imgur.com/a/1yzdHDj

As you can see I yo-yo quite a bit with my weight and this doesn't even show all of it.

In high school I was about 165lb, then in my late teens I ballooned up to 260 lb. Over about 10 years I lost down to 147 lb by my late 20's, early 30's.

Then I ballooned up again to 286 in 2016, then down again to 190 with a severe diet. Then up again to 255, then slowly down to 210 lb with a lot of hiking. Then up again to 280.

I have a point here, although it might not seems like it.

I am now 220 lb, which might seem heavy to some people but it's actually pretty good for me. I want to lose a little more weight and then MAINTAIN!!!

I think if I really want to keep the weight off permanently I will have to continue tracking on myfitnesspal and also using the lose it subreddit. Lose it has been very helpful for me, especially Mountain Lioness's daily posts for usa accountability.

My question is, does anybody who has successfully maintained a big weight loss have any tips for how to maintain it? I want to lose a little more but I'm getting close to a weight I would want to maintain.

I have a bad habit of gaining and losing and this time I really want to find a set point and stay there. For one thing, it's really really annoying to have clothes in a bunch of different sizes and have nothing fit. Clothes are expensive!

Thank you if you read all of this, and please reply with tips on maintenance, those who have successfully maintained your weight loss for about 2 years or more.

Also, it is worth mentioning that I also have bipolar disorder and my high weights can sometimes coincide with my bipolar manias.
