Hi I am a week newbie! I'm Kelly

I have been following my 1340 caloric intake a day to a T. It has been a full seven days so far. I weighed myself today and was disappointed that I had not lost any weight, not even 1 pound. Is this normal in the beginning? I am female, 5'6, 160lbs.

Hey Kelly!
Our bodies work in mysterious ways, I've found myself able to loose a pound in two days but have to wait two weeks before the next one goes. Hang in there, it'll be so worth the effort0 -
Hi Kelly, I have had that problem with the scale. I was told not to just focus on the scale to see how my clothes feel. Check your inches. This helps me.
Good luck. Becky0
