Not losing weight

Options
Hello!
I have been strictly following my calories intake and not taking more than 1200. According to the app it will help me lose 2 lbs per week but I only lost .6lb in my first week. Is it going to get better ?

    What is your current and goal weight, age, and size? You've chosen a weight loss goal of 2lbs per week? Sorry, we need more information to help you. 0.6lbs is good and not 'nothing'.

    One week is not long enough.

    Log food and exercise as accurately as you can for 4-6 weeks, then adjust. Time takes time.

    Don’t be surprised if your weight bounces up and down the first few (well, all) weeks. It’s normal. Weight loss is not linear. It looks more like an earthquake recording.

    Don’t be discouraged. Patience, patience, patience.
