in Health and Weight Loss
I have been on MFP for 11 days now and I lost 1lb, I'm excited about that but I'm feeling maybe it should have been more. I don't know if I'm doing this right , if my calories are set right or if my active level is too high... I don't know but does anyone have any suggestions.

    Congratz on your loss! Weight loss will never be linear. There are weeks I go no loss, then lose two or I lose at about 1 lb a week steady for awhile. A loss is a loss! I wouldn't try to speed it up. A lot of times, if you try to rush it (which generally means cutting calories or upping exercise to unsustainable levels) you will have a higher chance to relapse on bad habits. Just keep up the great work!

    If you start to stall, or get frustrated, take a read through this:

    With less than 50lbs to lose 1lb a week is fine but remember weight loss is not linear...you will bounce up and down...

    It all depends on exercise, water retention, accuracy in logging and weighing your food.

    1lb is good...just make sure you are being accurate...
