    I net 1200 calories via diet and exercise (meaning if I burn 600 calories then I eat 1800 to net 1200) and have lost 30 lbs in a little over 3 months. I started at 220. I track all my calories every day and weigh my foods, etc.... Some days are harder than others.

    ^ That's about the same for me in terms of frequency of checking, calorie consumption, and documenting everything (food and exercise). My doctor also said that I need to watch my sodium intake as my blood pressure was on the high side from normal. I started a little more than two weeks ago at about 196 and am at 188 today (~4 pounds per week). My goal is 165 pounds within then next 3-4 months. I'm slowly ramping up my exercise as I build up stamina from having done absolutely none.

    Well, for the first year I lost on average 1lb per week, which was my goal. I have an aesthetic as well as a weight goal, losing 2-4lbs per week is unhealthy and would greatly reduce the chances of me meeting my aesthetic goal.

    Since then it has been slower due to various issues. I have about 20lbs left to lose (60 lost so far with some small fluctuations up along the way) and am in no rush because again, it's primarily about aesthetics at this point. Fuelling my fitness goals and maintaining muscle mass is important to me.

    I net 1200-1400/day over the week. Am on my second 'vanity' phase after maintaining a loss of 30 pounds for a few years. Lost 5kg over a 1 month period.

    I've been at it for right at 45 days. Down 15 lbs so far. A lot of small meals, snacks. Lot of rigorous workouts. I know I don't have to watch my macros, but I do and it helps.

    I started with my fitness pal in January 2015 and struggled a lot. I'm 4'11" and started at 143 and I'm currently 121. I started using a food scale in december of 2016 and have lost almost 22lbs. I'm in maintenance now and eat between1600 and 2000 calories a day.
