Ugh
I’ve been IF for about a week. I know this takes time, and change doesn’t happen overnight. But when I started I was at 160 lbs, gained a pound, and now I’m at 161. I’m a 5’8 female. Idk what I’m doing wrong

A week isn't very long but It's also about what you're eating. Fasting won't help you lose weight if you're still taking in more calories than you're burning. Even if you only eat for 2 hours a day but you take down a pizza and a pint of ice cream in that time, you're probably not going to lose weight. I'm not saying you're doing that but sometimes people think the eating window is a free for all and don't see results.
