Am I thick?

[Theresawaytobehonestandkind]

I’ve only ever gained weight until recently really trying to get into shifting it. I cannot figure out if I eat 1000 calories a day what amount of weight will I lose?? Everywhere says maybe 2lbs. “Maybe” two!! Surely more? I really want to lose 3lbs a week so I can go into next year feeling a little better. 37. 5’4 and 13 and a half stone

@Theresawaytobehonestandkind Sorry, no idea why I typed the numbers I did, multi tasking😂 that should have said 575, and I had 1000-1100 and list over 2lb a week.

Yours would be 833, but 1300 should be fine which is around 500 under.

I literally lived calorie counting when I was losing weight and constantly checked my TDEE regularly so god knows why my brain typed ths numbers it did, i got it right then as didnt have a week where i didnt lose pretty much 2lb 😂😂

It is hard when you're short like us as there isnt a great deal of scope but you will lose weight without dropping so many calories, try and up your steps and exercise to help, but exercise really wont make a massive difference , unless you are do8ng mega intense stuff you'll never burn enough.

I’m 5 ft 2 and have lost 2 stone 8 since mid- February. I was 12 stone 5 and now 9 10. I’d go slow and steady. I was on 1200 calories per day and lost roughly 1 lb per week. If you go in too hard you’ll run out of steam and it’s not healthy either.
