I started my calorie counting and turbo jam workout about 2 weeks ago. I lost an amazing 6 lbs. in just a few days, and then 2 more lbs. a few days after that. I also lost 8 inches off my waist which made me overjoyed. But now I've gained two lbs back and don't understand the problem. I'm eating healthy, never eaten so many fruits and vegetables in my life, and have been meeting the 40/30/30 ratio of macro-nutrients that many other people use. What's going on? I'm at 1800 cal/day. Do I need to increase it, decrease it, keep it the same? I thought I would have lost more weight being as I weigh so much, and that I've cut out almost all soda & sweets. I cut out everything for a week and nothing, but I did relent and have a couple since Saturday. Which I do now regret...
I've been working out everyday, sweating up a storm. I feel better about myself for working out, but I'm upset about stalling. I also know that I'm weighing myself too much, my mother suggested once a week, but I'm so interested to see any progress. I'm just starting out, and was hoping early weightloss could be motivating. Help!
