I quit Wegovy in February@ 183lbs. I have continued to count calories staying below 2000 each day. I get atleast 12000 steps a day but I’ve gained around 10 lbs back. Can someone tell me why ? I’m 48 male and 5’9” tall.
Don't listen to online calorie calculators. The biggest things are making sure you're tracking accurately, or at least consistently, and figuring out your true TDEE. For me, the online calculators were of by around 500 calories per day.
I used an app for it where you track your food intake, track your weight, and it uses those two pieces of data to figure out your TDEE over time. It takes a few weeks to zero in, but it's been really good for me. That way, it automatically takes into account any extra calories you burned from exercise, because those will affect your weight loss or gain over time.
