    Hey there. I've lost 12 lbs so far, looking to lose 77 more. I'm just counting calories and trying to get my steps in. I occasionally do some Nintendo Switch Ring Fit and also some weights.

    Hello, I have lost 42 lbs so far and have 70 more to go. I started intermittent fasting in Oct. Initially I was fasting 20 hours but not tracking meals. I was losing but not as consistent as I would like and any little slip up would result in gain. I also was tired of being hungry most of the time and eating when not hungry during the fasting period(so not developing good habits recognizing hunger/fullness cues) I did some research and learned that it's not that much benefit for women to fast for longer than 16 hours. So I switched to 16 hours and started tracking my food. I think this is much more sustainable and I have had steady loss even with 1-2 "cheat" days a week. I have a very active job and I am trying to exercise 3 days a week. My favorite exercise is water aerobics.
