    Hello @sparklebright628

    It's great to hear you found something you love that works for you. With losing weight everyone is different and there will be other factors to take in too. For example, when I was losing weight I found it much more difficult when on steroids then when I wasn't. But when my mum was on steroids she lost weight quicker.

    I'd keep a journal to track your progress and hopefully that may give you some idea of what works best for you :)

    It’s not just about exercise. It’s about healthy eating and a balanced diet too. 

    I’m in the process of trying to lose some weight and find calorie counting works very well for me. 

    My total weight loss in 3 months is 1st 6Ib.

    That’s amazing! So glad you’re enjoying your new activity that suits you and gets you out in the fresh air… so many benefits. I’ve been thinking about getting an electric tricycle for exactly the same reasons…, my mobility stops me from walking far… I’ve anxiety in a car… but I really want to be more active and social, and thought perhaps 3 wheels will have more support and more comfortable sitting position?? Please advise!! How do you find the comfort compared to riding a bike? 
    I’d love to know how you’re doing with it!

    Congratulations on buying a trike, and work towards your health goals. Consistency is helpful for progress, whether sticking with a routine or gradually increasing distance/pace. When focusing on weight loss, I've found weekly or monthly weigh ins more motivating than daily. A holistic approach considering nutrition, activity, and rest serves well. Wishing you the best as you sustain this lifestyle. Please keep sharing your journey - it can inspire others too.
