    You don't ha4ve to push yourself that hard. It musn't be an o session. Aiming for a smaller achievement is better. Don't set a time limit. Losing weight in small steps. Eat less calories than your tdee. Take your time and take it easy. Do you have a special happening that you want to lose Weight?

    Just for me, a few years back I was diagnosed with some thyroid and adrenal problems, I now finally have them under control with help from doctors and medicine, most of the medicines I'm on are steroids, so I gained a lot of weight. I know it would be unreasonable to get back down to where I was before but I'm just looking for a more comfortable weight.

    Well, you came from far. Respect. If you want, you can achieve anything you want. There is a Dutch saying: " De aanhouder wint" which means somsting like, trie long enough and you'll succeed. Do you have calculate the calories your body needs on an ordinary day?
