    How are you measuring your fat percentage?

    I got a scale that shows fat, muscle, water weight. I know they aren’t exact though

    2 kg in the first week and a half of a new diet is largely water weight. Your pace of weight loss should slow down to a more sustainable rate, assuming you aren't undereating. Body fat scales are generally not very accurate.

    When you're eating in a deficit, you're going to lose both fat and lean body mass. The lean-body mass loss in the beginning is mostly water.

    Water weight makes your weight fluctuate a lot. Give it a few weeks and then note the average of your weight loss, this is how much you’re losing a week approximately.
