I'm a girl, 5'7, 297lbs. I'm on week one of my weight loss journey. I've been doing an hour of treadmill everyday because I get no steps in during the day. I've been maintaining a healthy diet. Any tips/advice to lose weight?

I lost ~100 pounds, and the vast, vast majority of the progress was attributable to walking. You need to build momentum, psychologically, that is the key, and if you do what you’re doing religiously, you will.

As long as you are in a caloric deficit you will lose weight. Find low calorie options to everything, drink a lot of water, get a lot of sleep, and keep walking and you’ll reach your goal. Once you start to plateau that’s your body saying it’s at a good spot for that workload. Once you hit that point you’ll have to reevaluate your plan and make more drastic measures if you so choose.

Oh and calisthenics/bodyweight exercises are key. They are low intensity/high rep workouts that you can do every day to lose weight and build muscle (you won’t become a bodybuilder either).

Go get eggs from giant eagle, hard boil them. Eat some in the morning if u like breakfast. I personally morning fast and go to the gym in the morning(you burn more in the morning before eating). Giant eagle also has 99 cent flavored tuna packets. They don’t taste as bad as it seems. Get protein in.

also, lots of ppl are concerned with lifting weights bc they don’t wanna get “bulky” but you won’t and you’ll have less loose skin. And DO NOT GET ADDICTED TO THE SCALE. gaining doesn’t mean ur getting fat
