50 pounds down!! (with pics)

U look amazing. . Secret behind your weight loss pleaseeee

Thank you! No secret, really. I just used the app. No special diet or anything. I eat pretty much the same stuff, just in smaller portions. I do exercise, but it's more to retain as much LBM as I can (strength training) and for general health. And so I can eat more, haha. Well, that's why I started anyway, but now I just enjoy it. ^^

As for calories, I started at the 2 pounds a week setting, which was NET 1500 cal for me, and that was good for a while but about 30 lbs in I started to feel some loss of motivation and energy from having it so low (2 lbs a week was almost down to 1200 cal by then) so I upped it gradually and ended up at NET 1,800 which is somewhere between 1.5 and 1 lb loss a week. When the weight loss slows down below a pound a week, I'll probably tweak it down again. But for me, it's all about finding an intake number where I'm losing but I still feel good. I'd rather lose it slow than be miserable.
