why am I not losing??

russlynne

early june I started a 1200 calorie diet - could not lose weight, so 1 1/2 weeks ago I switched it up to a 1200 calorie deit that is high protein and low carb....shooting for 100g protein and 15 grams carbs and I'm still not losing.
Please look at my meals and make comments and/or sugestions.

I can't see your diary, so it is hard to say. Are you weighing and logging everything you eat, exactly? Weighing is much better than measuring cups, which can be off by a lot. Are you adding things to foods, like sauces, dressings, stuff in coffee? Those can add a lot of calories that you miss. How long has it been? Do you exercise?

If you have been watching things for at least a month, it is almost certain that you are eating more than you think. If you are in a calorie deficit, you will lose weight, no ifs, ands, buts, or dumb internet theories to the contrary. It is a very simple concept, but one that is very difficult to actually accomplish. I'm sorry for your frustration.
