5’4, was 166 SW, now CW 160lbs. I have been at 160 for months now. My change from 166 to 160 was done without the app but cause of the stall I wanted to try counting. My goal is to be at 140lbs, I hoped by May…
I know I have it set at 1389, and this sub is for 1500 but I am assuming it’s close enough that I can get advice.
I keep going over, it’s hard as I live at home and don’t have much control over groceries and supper. We are big snackers in my household.
I used the apps calculations to do 1.5 lb a week (picked slightly active as I try to hit 5-7k steps and I do 2-3 workout classes a week – usually use dumbbells in these classes). I do NOT subtract calories from my walking or workouts. So maybe I am under, but it be nice to hit under 1400.
Looking for any tips and advice for people around the same size and deficit. What helps you stay under the goal? Should I start tracking my workouts? Am I gonna lose weight even tho I went over – or did I just eat my maintenance?
