My starting weight was 190 Currently at 140 I’d like to lose another 10-20 lbs but I am very happy where I’m at. It took me 2 years off and on. I didn’t have a set calorie amount for every day. It depended on my current weight and exercise. It could be anywhere between 1200 - 2000 calories

Start wherever you want. There is no right or wrong answer. You’re way overthinking

Depends on the person. I like being able to measure my progress in numbers. I measure it in other ways too but for me it is helpful/motivational to have a goal weight and see the number on the scale getting closer.

Yes. I started my weight loss journey without doing exercise. I just wanted to get a handle on my eating habits before adding even more into my lifestyle change. I did eventually take up running and I’m really glad I did. I do think it makes things easier for me as I get more calories to work with on run days. It’s also…

Take progress pictures!! I’ve lost 50+ lbs and sometimes still need a progress picture to remind me how big of a difference it makes. Don’t rely on other people’s comments as a gauge of how much of a difference your weight loss has made. It’s considered really rude to comment on someone’s weight so most people won’t say…

It’s always improving. I can see differences in my running month to month. I started seriously running again in May. Running 3-4 miles with an average pace of 11:34 per mile. This month I’m completing a half-marathon next week. My short runs during the week are 5 miles and my average pace is 10:12 per mile. After the half…

Number one reason is for my own health. I don’t want to end up with a diabetes diagnosis or wait until things are bad health-wise for my wake up call. Seeing 190 on the scale was my wake up call and when I realized I needed to take control. Number two is because my husband and I are trying for a baby and it was important…

You probably have your activity level set too high or aren’t weighing everything then. I don’t think you need to wait 60 days to see results. But your jumping around a ton and seem to be making this entirely more complicated than it needs to be.
-
Weight loss takes patience. Try ONE thing consistently for 60 days and see how you do. Also MFP will tell you how many calories you need for weight loss. There’s no need to jump around so much with your calorie goal.
-
You just get back to your regular routine. You did not gain 2kg of fat in one day. It’s water weight, it will come off in a few days.

I’m 5’0” and 138 lbs. I’m a runner but prefer running outside to the treadmill. I also do strength training. Strength training shouldn’t be ignored until you reach your goal weight. It can help with weight loss and there are a lot of body weight exercises you can do if you have no equipment. FitnessBlender is my favorite…

It’s just my natural eating style. I don’t track it with an app or even have a specific eating window but I usually skip breakfast and stop eating after dinner. It makes it a lot easier for me to stick to my calories.
