Hey everyone - I know I'm not a featherweight (yet!!) but this felt like a question solvable by the featherweights of 3FC.
I first weighed in about 2.5-3 weeks ago at 176. I've been monitoring my food a lot more closely, eating around 1,300 calories a day and just started cardio last week at 3x per week. I've splurged a couple weekend nights for drinks, but have been on plan otherwise. This morning I weighed in at 170, and while I'm thrilled with the number on the scale, I'm terrified that it's not fat loss somehow and I'll wake up tomorrow and be back up in the mid-170s.
Is it possible that I'm just losing quickly since it's the beginning and it'll level out as time goes on? Or is it likely water-weight? I guess I'll have a better idea in the coming days depending on whether or not the scale goes up.
