Hi I'm Tasha and I'm really working on studying my weight loss journey. I'm currently 5'3 250-255lbs and carved out 3 days a week to work out. I just started Monday and will be exercising every MWF until I can handle 4 days a week. However I can't seem to do more than 20mins each workout before I feel like I'm about to die. I see tons of people working out for 30mins to even hours at a time so I've been a little disappointed with myself. However I've never worked out at this weight and was wondering if it's normal to be this short winded at this size? Does it get better? I really hope in the next two weeks or so I will notice a difference in my stamina.
I'm also eating 1250 calories a day and only drinking water.
Also with the information given, is there a time frame to which I should start seeing results in my body?
I'm sorry it's so long but I really appreciate you taking the time out to read. It's so nice to know we don't have to be alone on this huge endeavor.

Yeah it's normal to become exhausted as a beginner at that height/weight. You'll improve. What do you do exactly?
Previously you gained weight slowly, so it'll be lost slowly, but keep at it and you'll eventually get to your goal.

Oh okay thanks for your response. I run up and down the stairs, jump rope, do squats and an exercise where you're sitting on the floor with your knees up and touching the floor with your hands on your right side and on your left.

Hello Tasha. Good for you. Health and fitness is a lifestyle so take your time and stay focus. As you continue, it will happen by itself like with any achievement in life. Hang in there and watch the carbs, sodium and sugar. If you should fail (which we all do,) just get back up and at it again. It gets easier with time. Find others in you sphere that's into the health and fitness routine; they will be glad to encourage you too. Congratulations on you new walk of life. If you have any more questions I will be glad to assist. Peace Jack.
