I only need to lose 10lbs and I have cut back on calories considerably, but I've only lost 2lbs in the last 3 weeks. I think when you don't have a lot to lose, it just takes longer. Be patient and consistent with your logging and you will get there.
1lbs of muscle weights exactly the same as 1lbs of fat. And it's extremely difficult to gain muscle in a calorie deficit, and especially as a woman. Sure, there'll be some muscle mass gained, but it won't just happen.1
