To have expected to have lost more weight by now?

[BananaBang]

I'm
I'm quite overweight I suppose. 3 stone ish. So we are definitely not in the realms of losing the last few lbs or anything!

I started a diet and I'll have been on it 3 weeks tomorrow. I'm basically being sensible, calorie counting and keeping carbs to good ones and also low. Plenty of veg and fruit. Drinking water

In these almost 3 weeks I've lost 11 lbs. I expected more I think

It's making me feel a bit despondent tbh. Is it a decent loss considering I have about 3 stone in total to lose? How can I speed it up? Activity has been upped so I think I'm doing all I can

@Vintage2020 god if I ate any chocolate I'd just binge it all! I try and get round cravings by having a drink I make in a hotel chocolate Velvetiser. I add one teaspoon of pukka chocolate latte stuff (it's sugar free) to cashew milk or oat milk.

Hits the spot and it's about 35 cals

@BananaBang also could u get yourself a running/power walk partner for set extra exercise every week?

Ha yes - I need a power walk partner for sure!

Definitely only weigh your self once a week or fortnight, I also agree with having a treat
