Yeah losing fat is good - I just thought I would've lost some weight over the last 14 days looking at my calorie consumption.

One pound of fat is roughly 3500 kcal but sometimes calories are rerouted to make muscle.

How many calories it takes to build one lbs is hard to guess, but in general the first few kilos are easily added if young / new to training.

Yeah I was aiming to be in a calorie deficit of avg. 600 calories per day - so I thought I'd be dropping a 1.5lb per week. Have I worked that out wrong?
