8 Weeks - 8 kg down (+2 water weight). The calorie and exercise tracking has proved to be the best way to keep myself motivated.

I have been tracking my calories and exercise since 4th Jan and as of yesterday lost 10kg on the scale.

The things that worked for me are,

1. Tracking calories every day. I mean every single day! I track the foods using MFP and enter the totals to google sheet. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1U5ypHo0YsBIUl4hU0USb5_spi13QNQJgmjwAWy8HhA0/edit?usp=sharing
2. Always round up your calories in and round down your calories out. Since we miss some of the stuff we eat and over estimate the amount of exercise. This keeps the accuracy of the tracking in balance.
3. Set and ideal week every monday and try to stick to it. By this way I can change priorities every week depending on work load.

Planning to keep going until I hit my goal of 65 by July. Expecting to slow down the weight loss to 0.5kg per week after April.
