1 stone weight loss

donaldmackay12

Looking to lose 1 stone over a reasonable time period preferably July at the latest ,

I am monitoring what I eat using the calorie counter on here and keep below 1700 with an aim for 1200
I just do not seem to be moving this last stone , I walk the basic 20000 steps a day ,

1200 calories is way too low for a guy doing 20000 steps per day. 1500 is the lowest recommended amount to ensure you're getting adequate nutrition, you risk losing muscle as you lose fat if you're undereating.

The last 10-15lbs is extremely slow and losses can be easily masked by fluctuations.

My last stone is also proving stubborn but I am increasing my weight exercise and steps! Good luck.

I'd agree with tinkerbellang83, 1200 kcal seems way to low, especially with 20000 steps a day, that is roughly 900 kcal burned. 500 kcal deficit from your maintenance should be more than enough combined with your walks to lose that 1 stone in a a month or so.
