Counting calories is the single best thing you can do for yourself if you really want to get serious about losing weight. No matter how much you exercise (except top athletes, of course), you simply cannot outrun what you put in your mouth. Exercise helps, definitely, as it gives you extra calories to consume, if you want to, and it tones your body and is good for overall health, but losing weight is ONLY ever achieved with constant calorie deficit.

Anna28518,
Could you pl share your wt loss strategies?
Calories, macros, workout routine, what else did you do to achieve this?
Thanks and awesome job!!!0 -
Not too complex really.
Started diligently tracking my calories and realized I was eating 3000+ a day. Brought that back to 1500 by eating smaller portions but still the same food, just less.
The weight came off at a rate of 0,6 kg a week. I didn't exercise.
I had a blimp around the mid 60s kg and at that point I started to look closer at my macros, lowered my carbs and upped my protein. As I was impatient I brought my calories back to 1200 (which I don't recommend)!
Once I reached the high 50s kg I should have started recomp to keep and/or strengthen muscle but life got hectic at that time and I ended up running on coffee and lost a too much weight and muscle.
Currently busy correcting that by running a lean bulk while doing Strong Curves and it that works like a treat! Loving SC and I'm now back on 55 kg, 2 more kg to go.
My maintenance intake is 2000. That took a while to figure out but slowly upped my intake and let my body adjust.
Good luck as there is a lot of determination needed!12 -

Thanks for this Anna. It's so encouraging for those of us in the middle of it to see plain common sense work so well 7 -

When I get below 140, people start asking me if I have an eating disorder, too, despite being in a healthy BMI. It’s always interesting to me how people carry their weight differently.11 -
November 2018- January 2019 24lbs down. 70lb to go

194 lbs and 128 lbs a year later. Currently I weigh 136 lbs (I stopped tracking for another year because I had become too obsessive and needed to rest my mind. Last week I decided to shed off 6 extra pounds, this time my approach is “steady and slowly”
