I am doing very well to stay on my 1200-1300 cals a day and keeping a good balance with exercise walking briskly 3 days a week for 50minutes each time. I have been doing so for 12 days. My measurements tell me i have lost 1to2inches from legs/hips/thighs&arms but my scales read 80kg STILL! I am unsure if im taking in the right amount of calories? maybe some day soon i just all of a sudden drop the kgs? Has anyone else experienced this? Any advice? Im happy to keep doing what im doing if its the right thing

    how are you logging your food? are you weighing everything on a digital scale?

    If you lost inches you should probably not worry about the scale. :)
