Weight Loss for Everyone: I feel like I'm not doing enough

I feel like I'm not doing enough

Just a vent tbh. I'm worried I'm not doing enough. I'm eating at a calorie deficit and I'm more active than I was before, but every success story I've seen has people walking 10k+ steps in addition to much harder workouts. I'm just sitting here thinking "there's no way!"

I know a feel good platitude is "don't compare yourself to others," but I feel like if I want to actually make progress I at least need to know where the bar is. And I feel like I'm not meeting it.

I'm typically sedentary and frequently bedbound. In the last few months I've been using video games like Fitness Boxing, Ring Fit Adventure, Just Dance, and Finc Home Fit every single day to try and lose weight and build strength. But when I compare 15 minutes, 30 minutes, an hour here and there of fitness gaming to the 2+ hours of lifting weights on top of 10k+ steps every single day, I'm left feeling like I'm just not pulling my weight (ha).

At the same time, I'm scared to go harder. But even with eating at a calorie deficit, I'm just not seeing results as quickly as I'd like. I've heard that people my size slough off weight fast at first, and I've not really experienced that at all. Worse, ever since I gained back some of the weight after being bedbound again for a month, I feel like I've plateaud before I've even really gotten started.

It's discouraging.
