current W: 242 lb
I am not weighing myself :neutral:

I know i should weigh myself actually i want to know that if my BMR is 2101 and TDEE around 2500. This is how i am creating deficit of 700 calories?
So i am losing 700*7= 4900 calories (1+ lb)

Exercise= 0 Minutes
Doing Leg Raise 40 x

Correct me if i am wrong?

    Are you tracking accurately? Are you in a deficit?

    If you want to know then weigh yourself.

    Nobody can tell you by the information you have provided.

    Are you even moving?

    Why are you not weighing yourself?

    Go to goal and see what it says you should eat to lose your goal weight. If you eat that plus exercise cals you should be losing close to your weekly goal amount.

    differences can come up if you are burning less than you think, or eating more than you think (measurement errors)

    It was not about losing weight when i started smoking. That was a general question about effect of smoking on weight. Thanks to MFP i quit after smoking 12 cigarettes :p

    Yeah i used to walk that much daily but due to exams I am not moving my *kitten* from my room for a month :(
    So trying to lose weight by creating deficit.

    If you know your TDEE is ~2500 then eating anywhere between 1800 - 2500 calories will result in weight loss. I'd advise you track accurately, though, i.e., using a food scale.

    walk while studying. I used to do this in college. I would take my text book and walk the halls.. I still read and walk to this day, it's now a comfort thing haha..

    Take breaks.. study for 2 hours, then walk for 15 mins ( outside if you can ). then back to studying for 2 hours.. rinse and repeat.. seriously, it will help you retain the information you are studying. it will also get you moving! Set an alarm clock or you will study when you need to walk.

    What is you actual question?

    If you deficit is 4900 cals/week then on average you should be losing 1.4lbs/week on average. Assuming your TDEE is what you estimate it to be and your logging is 100% accurate, otherwise you may not be losing at all or 2ish lbs/week.
