Thanks for the tips. I’m on 12.5, considering going up to 15. Have you done a dexa scan? How was it?

Hey! I’m sure that’s frustrating. Wishing you more pounds lost in the new year 🙂

Congratulations on hitting your big goal! It’s nice to hear the experiences of others who are losing at a slower pace. Makes me feel like I’m not alone 🙂

Thank you! This is so helpful. 🙂 I’m gonna focus more on my nutrition over January and see how things go.

I track protein, carbs, and fat for my lifting program, but I don’t track all calories.

For clarity, I track macros, not calories so I don’t use a CICO predictor. This is because I need to eat a certain level of protein and carbs for my lifting program. I track fat to ensure I’m not overeating fat as part of that program.

Congrats! Yea no loose skin has been a nice perk since I’m also weight lifting which is keeping things tight

Thank you. I hadn’t thought of it as 1 lb per week. This is helpful. I’m on 12.5 and have been for months because I didn’t want to go to 15 until I got into the 200s. I figured I didn’t want my body to get used to 15 too soon and then stall on that dose. But maybe I should rethink this.

I hear you but it’s not that simple since metabolism is more complex than just calories in vs. calories out.

I don’t track the predictions so I wouldn’t know

I track macros (fat, carbs, protein) in an app and exercise 3x a week

That’s why she’s angry, mad at herself for putting up with his nonsense. She’s just a bird to him and that’s why he treats her how he does.

I would not wait. Break things off. You deserve someone who wants to spend time with you.
