calorie deficit question
hi! i’m new to the concept of weight loss measures as i’ve always naturally been pretty skinny my entire life at roughly 110-115 as my consistent base weight for quite some time. i got diagnosed with a chronic illness and was taking steroids that made me voracious and i was easily eating 2x my normal amount every day for a month and naturally i gained 15 lb and am at abt 128 rn.
ive been off the meds for a few months and my appetite has returned to normal where im really not a voracious eater but despite consuming half the calories i was during my gain, im losing no weight. im wondering what i should do to lose weight considering that im at what was my daily intake at 115 and going in a deficit beyond that seems slightly extreme but any guidance or advice would be appreciated because i feel really stuck with trying to understand how to lose this weight or if it’ll just go away naturally
