Take particular note of the posts that explain how to weigh, track and log your intake correctly. (A food scale is important!) One of the most common mistakes for people new to calorie counting is inaccurate logging, so if you can get a handle on that you might see some movement on the scale.

The method works... if you use it correctly and as intended, and are logging everything...

You're welcome - and take photos and measurements too! Sometimes you might not see much shift in scale weight, but you might notice a loss of inches and see your clothes fitting differently. There are lots of ways to measure progress, the scale is only one of them. Unfortunately, it's also the one we tend to get most fixated on! (I'm guilty of that myself, which is why I also like measurements etc. )
