hey, i am 22 female, currently at 64 kg at 5.2 feet, goal - 52 kg by this September. I have tried multiple times to loose this weight but this time i am serious yrr, but I can't be consistent doing this alone, i want a weight loss partner ... together we will reach our goal. plz someone accompany me.
I’ve been thinking about something and I wanted to hear real experiences from people here who are actually going through it.
It feels like we have so many tools available now for weight loss. Apps that track calories, apps that count steps, workout plans everywhere, fasting guides, AI suggestions… basically everything you could need is already out there.
But even with all of that, a lot of people still seem to struggle with actually getting consistent results or sticking to something long enough for it to work.
From my own observation, it seems like the challenge isn’t always knowing what to do. A lot of people already know the basics. The harder part is actually sticking with it when life gets busy, or feeling confident that what you’re doing is the “right” approach, or just dealing with information overload from too many different methods online.
I’ve been exploring this space more closely recently through something I’m building called ThriveXDNA, and it’s made me more curious about how different people actually experience this problem in real life rather than in theory.
I’m just curious what it’s actually like from your side.
When you think about your own experience with weight loss, what has been the hardest part for you personally?
And if you’ve ever made progress before, what actually helped you keep going in a real and practical way?
I have been eating in a deficit since September and have noticed my weight loss slowing down. I have gotten the advice to eat my maintenance calories for a while then go back to a deficit, how long should you eat your maintenance calories? All last week I did, and I don’t know if that is enough?
I am worried that if I eat at maintenance for too long I will mentally have a really hard time getting back in a deficit. This is the longest I have actually stuck with weight loss and I know my biggest obstacle is my head lol.
So far I’m down 32.5 lbs since October (I was afraid to weigh myself in September when I started)
39yo, male, 203lb, 6’, 5k steps day, 3-4 lifting/wk, 2-3 peloton (medium intensity) per wk. Currently eating 1750 calories per day. i’ve been on this for almost 2 months now. I hit about 180gram of protein/day and the rest. Mix of carbs and fats (healthy foods only). Typically every two weeks i might hit a day where i eat 2400 calories.
The scale has been going down…but not for a couple weeks its stalled around 202/203. I wonder if i should be INCREASE my calories and if 1750 is way too low (i dont feel bad and get good sleep).
Any advice for the stereotypical dad bod guy…looking to get back down to 180.
bc like, I was snatched last year and now I'm 40+ pounds overweight and look way more and my dad keeps being an asshole about it and I don't feel good in my body but I don't really have time for the gym so I guess I have to go to other methods and please no body positivity bs, people don't wanna look at me anymore and I'm sick of being ugly and I wanna be able to wear skirts without my ass hanging out or low rise jeans without looking obese as fuck I'm sick of it I don't care how unsafe or unhealthy it is I need to loose like 40-50 pounds of fat because I don't like getting lectured by my dad for being fat, he thinks it's not okay because I'm a young girl but he's like way bigger than I've ever been both of my parents are big and they call ME fat like wtf bro stfu anyways whatever helps
Just curious as a 422 pound man, I want to lose weight but im not the type to take years to do it. So im curious what yall did and how you did it
I’ve always maintained a healthy weight. I’m 5’3”, and my weight used to be around 49–52 kg. I now weigh around 58 kg, and my body fat percentage has increased significantly.
I used to practice yoga regularly for the last 8 years, but I’ve been very inconsistent over the past 2 years because I’ve been trying to switch to gym workouts, which just aren’t working for me.
I’ve gone from XS to S, and my waist size has increased from 26 to 28. While these changes may seem insignificant, they’ve made a huge difference in my life. None of my clothes fit me anymore, and I’ve never had fat on my stomach or arms before.
This is my first time actively trying to be healthy. Please help me create a proper schedule, suggest some lifestyle changes, or anything else I should be doing.
Thank you.

There’s so much advice online that it gets overwhelming sometimes.
For people who saw real progress, what actually had the biggest impact:
diet, walking, gym, calorie tracking, sleep, something else?
I tried to post this in weight loose subreddits but it was always removed for different reasons, but I think it should be shared and everyone should know about it.
Don't know if I can post this here, but there is a group on facebook that use a method made by a Danish mathematician and his dietitian daughter. It is free for all to join all help and files are free, there is even an app for both android and iphone.
How it works.
You type in your current weight and your target weight and how many months you want it to take (if you are very heavy you might want to cut into sections because it can only do a year at the time)
The first night you type in what you weigh is in the evening. Then again in the morning. Then you are informed how much food (it is in kilo and grams) you can eat for that days. Then you do the same thing every evening/morning. It will show you how much weight you have lost and how many kilo/gram you can eat during the day.
It is in Danish yes, but most Danes speak English.
It is advised that you do not try to loose more than 0.22 a day
It is also advised, that you do eat somewhat healthy to make it work
The name of the group is Matematisk vægttab if you want to look it up
I don't know if it is allowed to post a link here. I am in the group and will help as much as possible
I am just a normal member of the group
I’m trying to lose around 20 pounds and honestly the hardest part hasn’t been eating less, it’s dealing with the tracking apps. Half of them make me feel like i need to log every single gram perfectly or else the numbers are meaningless. Then i’ll have a week where the scale barely moves and suddenly i feel like i failed even though i was consistent.
What’s confusing me most lately is activity. I had two weeks where my calories were basically identical, but one week i was walking a lot more at work and lost weight faster , makes me realize how much NEAT probably matters but most apps don’t explain that very clearly at all.
One thing that’s helped outside of tracking is getting more protein earlier in the day. When I skip protein at breakfast I snack like crazy later lol. Has anyone found a simpler system that actually helps you see weekly progress without obsessing over every meal?
No matter what I do, I can’t loose weight. I exercise 5 days a week, 10k steps minimum, drink once a week (need it for social reasons) and eat 2 meals a day and 1 snack (around 1200-1400) I’m 5ft8 and weigh 80kg and CANNOT loose weight, holding all my weight in my stosmxh help
My doctor put me on Ozempic for diabetes. He didn’t tell me much except it would make me nauseous (it hasn’t after 2 days). I’m so confused what I’m supposed to be doing. Eat healthier, exercise…. i understand that part. But I haven’t changed my eating habits really because of this. I don’t get full faster but I do stay full longer. I just don’t understand what’s supposed to happen. I’m not testing my blood sugar so…..?
So I’ve been struggling with food noise since the beginning of my weight loss journey ,but it has come to being able to bear it.It’s still there,but I just live with it.My real issue is that I only feel okay/being able to ignore food noise when I’m stuffed,like a turkey.I tend to eat until I feel overfull(I still manage to hit my goals),because that is the only way I feel like I’ve eaten.Don’t get me wrong I can eat a normal meal and feel good,but whenever I do that,I get terrible food noise and the urge to eat is too strong to ignore,so I eat what I intended to eat way earlier and feast until stuffed/physically ill. My last meal tends to be at around 4pm,which is fine,but I hate that I cannot control and eat my planned meals.Also when I finish eating I feel bad and full,but eating until satisfied just doesn’t work.Any advice?
okay I have 90 days to lose as much as possible, I need a number of how many pound I could lose in said time- and what to do
