How long before you stop losing water weight and start losing actual fat? I'm at the beginning of my weight loss journey. I've tried losing weight a million times but I never make it past a few weeks. I'm determined to stick with it this time but was just wondering.

It happens immediately assuming you are in a calorie deficit and not just doing a cleanse of some sort. It may start out with a quick water weight drop, but there is still fat that is a part of that. The water flushes out to a stabilized amount in just a day or two as long as you are drinking water like you're supposed to.1
