For gals losing weight: I'm trying to lose at least 10 pounds (15 ideally) since January and my goal is to be 110 pounds by April (I'm 127 now). Throughout my life I've always been 105-110, so to see myself heavier, especially after some lifestyle changes, is kinda disheartening. Now, like I said I started to lose weight since January, and to do so I've been counting calories (1300-1400 a day) and going to the gym 3 times a week. I'm a really impatient person, so what's been driving me crazy is when you can actually see results, because I know I've been the same weight since I started a month ago.
