Trying to lose weight, did slightly changing your eating habits and exercising help you lose lbs?

Question

I’m trying to lose weight, I’ve done it before by changing how I ate like replacing chips with veggies when I eat etc, and exercising at home , but this time I feel like it’s gonna be harder for some reason. I’m 26, just feels like it’s gonna be harder this time around lol

Answer

I’ve went from 203 to 183 since June just by eating a bit less (I probably average 1,800 cals). I drink sugary coffee, pizza, pasta, bread, soda. Everything I ate before, I’m just snacking less and eating smaller portions. I’ve lost 20 pounds before in a month, but it’s never stuck. So this time around I’m doing it slowly and sustainably so I keep the weight off. I’m going to start exercising a couple times a week soon as well. It might take longer but you can definitely lose weight just by making slight changes.

So.. yes actually. After having my second kid, I stopped losing baby weight and plateaued at like 193-195lb. This is like, 7m postpartum.. anyways, I decided to try Noom. And the way Noom works, is it categorized everything you eat and let’s you know which foods you can have more of and which foods you can have in moderation. So focusing more on that and some light exercise every day… (it was slow to start, buuut) I got down to 185-187 in about a month. 
I was really excited because that’s the first weight I was able to lose by actively trying to lose it. All the other times I “tried” I wasn’t doing something right. 
I’ve since stopped tracking and exercising as often since some life stuff got in the way.. but I haven’t gained anything back. So I’m hopeful about continuing again one day to get to my goal weight. ❤️

Answer

I started at 203, changed by diet and worked out a bit and now I’m down to 170.

Answer

Sounds like it’s not a permanent change you are making or willing to make. It’s just going to keep cycling until you decide other wise
