I'm using a Fitbit alongside calorie counting. I have a massive sweet tooth but have banished chocolate from my diet entirely. I'm also walking between 6-10km a day. I'm aiming to have a 500 calorie deficit to lose a pound a week and have lost 12lbs in 6 weeks so have beaten my goal by double.
I'd like to lose another 2.5 stone to put myself back in the healthy BMI range.
However, according to the Fitbit I'm eating way below my output, I.e today I've eaten 1150 calories but have burnt off 2550 so far.
Should I eat a little more? I don't want to lose weight too quickly, I'm really after a maintainable lifestyle of exercise and healthy food.
Any advice would be welcome!
