    If you're always under the calorie goal then your body is going into starvation mode. Yeah - start with healthy carbs like brown rice, but more importantly, cauliflower, broccoli and all those fabulous vegetables. Increase your calories a little. Also, it sounds like you're becoming dangerously obsessed so please stop worrying so much. Stop using those scales and start using a tape measure instead.

    Also - try some basic strength work like push ups, planks and sit ups to get some muscle tone going.

    I was gaining weight too on 1200 cals/ day... I was trying to do no carb, until my nutritionist/ RD said that the brain needs 120g of carbs a day to function at full speed... which makes sense because I've been feeling off for a week... so I upped the cals and the carbs, and started losing weight and studying for finals better. :)

    Example: today for breakfast was 1 whole egg and one egg white scramble btw lunch grilled chicken and steamed vegetables for dinner grilled salmon all of them homemade Im not a big fan of salt so. Fruits are sometimes it would be 1/2 cup of pineapple for breakfast for example I know its dangerous but I really need to lose weight I drink a lot of water maybe 8 10 glasses per day so if it is water weight I dont know what to do

    Are you tracking your calories? What you ate today is not very many calories at all, in fact I think my lunch had more calories, than your entire day and I watch my carbs. i think if you eat more you may find your body will respond better.
