I’m 27 y/o 5’5” F and currently weigh 190 lbs (the heaviest I’ve ever been in my entire life). I had been carrying around an extra 20 lbs for a while due to a variety of things but lockdown depression really knocked me on my ass. So now I have stretch marks again for the first time since middle school (lovely) and hardly any of my clothes fit.
I quit drinking in November and from there I’ve just been trying to make some incremental lifestyle changes so that I don’t get frustrated and backslide. I’ve been trying to include more raw vegetables in my diet (hard to gauge when the baseline was “none” for so long lol) and started jogging a little in the past couple weeks.
I’m really resistant to any kind of regimented diet/exercise program, but I’m an avid PoGo player and I’ve been hitting 40+ km/wk for about a month now (trying to get that up to 50 km/wk).
As I’ve said, I’m trying to be very careful about setting easy, attainable goals for myself. At the moment I’m thinking I’d like be down to at least 185 by the end of February. As I stated in the title, I’d like to know what kinds of results I can expect per month. I think I could be happy with losing 5 lbs per month, but I’d like to know if this is realistic. Thanks
