34f 293lbs 5 '3. So I have always been overweight even as a kid and as a teenager I was obese. About 9 years ago I woke up one day and decided enough was enough and starting counting calories and "working out" with the Wii even 10 minutes and I felt so accomplished. I lost over 90 lbs in about 1.5 years and for the first time since I was 16 I weighed under 200lbs! The I got unexpectedly pregnant...like for real with protection and I still got pregnant lol. My entire pregnancy I did so good and was so fit! After my daughter was born with some complications I got depressed and battled so much anxiety and fell back to my old ways. The further I got from the new me the less motivated I was. Here we are 7 years later and I feel like I am finally in a good place and want to do this again and this time finish it and maintain it....it doesn't matter that it's going to take years all that matters is that I'm doing it and that I'm moving forward.
So now here we are for the last 20 days into logging in myfitnesspal and about 10 days of using my new Fitbit and the scale won't budge. I am weighing my food using a food scale and letting Fitbit add or subtract calories depending on activity level. So the first 2 weeks I think I may have over did it and went from zero to 100 I was doing workouts like turbofire 2 times a day at least plus other exercising and sticking to 1600 calories and not eating any exercise calories back....my Fitbit was giving me an extra 1000 - 2000 calories per day depending how hard I was working. I think I tried to start where I finished last time and this backfired and I starting getting headaches and experiencing extreme fatigue. Now my iron is super low. Scale still not moving.
So now I think I'm going to maybe try eating some of the exercise calories back and maybe doing less exercise to start and work up to the extremely intense videos. I don't know what else I should try. I do not want to give up but its frustrating to see no loss and it's extremely discouraging. Anyone have any similar experience or any suggestions? Thanks to all who took the time to read! :)
