[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP— first, move! More than 200 steps a day. Second, Eat!  Below 1200 calories and don’t move, there is almost no way you are maintaining muscle mass. That might be fine now. But, you’ll regret it at 40-50 as a woman.  Plus, muscle burns fat. You should have some weight training/strength training in your routine. And some basic yoga or maintain flexibility and balance never hurts.

See a registered dietitian  and get a healthy, realistic, science based eating plan based on your specific caloric needs.

I’ve lost 95 pounds on Wegovy then Zepbound in 14 months. I use a reputable, hospital based diet center. If I went below 1200 calories consistently and wasn’t eating the protein and drinking the water and doing the strength training to maintain muscle mass, they would pull me off the meds. Because the damage caused by muscle loss would outweigh the benefits— I’d just go from being fat to skinny fat.  Even with more than 1/3 of my body weight to lose (since I am not a healthy weight like you), below 1200 calories is a hard no go from every reputable dietician I know.

And weight fluctuates. I weigh in my underwear after I pee every morning for a consistent result. And it is a jagged line, up and down. Lost 4 pounds this week. Then up two  pounds over two days, then lose three. You have to look at trends. My apple health does just that. It shows me my average weight over the last 30 days vs my average weight the 30 Days before that. And makes it easy to see that I’m losing desipite some ups and downs.  That’s what you need to be looking at— trends over weeks or a month, not a single day and a few ounces. Now, if your average 30 day weight goes up by more than a pound or two, it’s time to reconsider your diet and exercise— with a registered dietician.  Until then, stop making yourself crazy.

And start moving. 200 steps to 10000 steps is a lot harder on your body and is likely to cause a lot or inflammation that hitting 10000 steps each day. [/quote]

How can you beat inflammation [/quote

Also how should I balance my remote days with in person days in terms of inflammation and “water weight” [/quote]
