Finally had to do it
3 months in a boot, physical therapy, and a lifetime of pain when physically exerting myself.
Calorie Deficit Help
Hello! I am new to losing weight, and need a little help.
For context I am F20, 5’7, and around 175 lbs right now. I am currently at the highest weight I’ve ever been, and it has been a pretty dramatic weight gain. Over the past year I’ve gained about 35 lbs and I’d like to lose the weight I put on. Due to an injury on my foot I’m pretty immobile, and I’ll be having surgery in about a month.
Due to not being able to properly work out, I’ve been more mindful of my calorie intake over the past few weeks, and want to try out a deficit. Sources and calculators online seem to conflict each other, so I’m wondering if anyone has any insight into what my daily calorie intake SHOULD be?
Thank you!!
