    You're not eating much.
    You arent eating much fruit and veg
    Your protein is also low
    Your measurements are too generic.

    Glad its your diet rather than mine.

    You aren't eating enough fruits and veggies to fill full. Junk food has more calories without making you feel satisfied.

    Eat more, what you are doing is not sustainable. You need to think of it as a lifestyle change, meaning it will last forever, not a fast diet for a few months to lose the weight. And, as I suspect your dr has already told you, until you get your blood presusre under control without meds, skip the fried food and salty snacks and try avoiding salt completely, or you are sabotaging whatever good the beta blockers are doing.

    You are definitely in need of a good steak and vegetable dinner and a serving of fruit. I agree with most of the posts, you are not eating enough. Watch your salt intake as well. Good luck.

    Yes... I noticed my salt intake as being High. I have a few items I'm going to get rid of and not eat. I noticed alot of processed foods and flavorings like hot sauce is high in salt... Something else I have noticed since going on a erm.. diet is that some things say low fat heart healthy like soup and then it says on the back 900 mg salt per serving I'm like umm that's false advertising lol.

    Typical attention-seeking behaviour from someone with at least two or three eating disorders.

    Sorry to be blunt, OP. But you're not going to find validation here. What you're doing is not healthy. And if you insist on continuing on that way, you're going to do serious long-term damage to yourself.

    We can't stop you from harming yourself. But we're not going to pretend it's okay either.

    And definitely gets some more protein into your diet. Good to see you are making changes. I noticed you don't eat breakfast and it would be a good idea if you could find a healthy breakfast to begin the day.

    Yes usually the "low fat" variety of soups etc have either a lot of sugar or a lot of salt so it is good to be wary. I have a soup maker. OMG it is so good, in twenty minutes you have great tasting soup for dinner.

    Holy hell man! That's not cool. You should be eating to sustain your body and lose in a healthy manner, which you're not doing. Dropping to your goal weight as fast as possible isn't going to do your body any favors.

    last week I was at 176.4 so I did drop less. Part of that is I think my lack of walking.
    I will post my new weight loss tomorrow.

    Dude.
    Just dude.

    The mind boggles why people feel the need to starve themselves to lose weight.

    YOU CAN EAT MORE AND STILL LOSE!

    You'll be losing muscle. Not just fat but important muscle. Stop being a martyr and eat. For your own sake.

    Hello I started losing weight on Jan. 20th 2015 and it is now March 9th 2015 I am 37 years old on cholesterol and and a beta blocker medications and am 5'6" My first weigh in was 201Lb. on about apx. Jan. 15th 2015 I have weighed myself on multiple different scales and as of 3/2/2015 I weigh 182.3 Lb. I was walking and working out 6 days a week but for the past 3 weeks I have not been able to work out because I fell and hurt my leg. Anyhow I want to know if anyone can look at my diary and help me out and tell me what I might need to improve on? and let me know how I'm doing? Thank you all

    Uh, why are you eating so few calories? It seems like you get around 1,000 calories nearly everyday.
