I have started with over 1000kcal (basic calculations) of deficit (5th day today) and my weight loss is not remarkable...lol...This is the first time I started this low in calories - around 1300Kcal.
I was expecting some kind of feedback my body will give me after the 5th day, like "I am starving, I am dying, give me more food!".
Not really. Slight increase in the muscle % (0.7) and the drop in fat (0.7). Need to watch that, because muscle loss is the main enemy for older females.
I guess the 1300Kcal metabolism rate my "smart scales" gave me is about right. My body does not need more than that.
Every day I walk 6 miles for an hour on a trail (nordic walking - not very fast, so I set it as hiking in the calculator) to make sure I approach the weight loss task from both directions.
Just need to be patient. Weight control is not a goal, it is a lifestyle.
