Why am I not losing any weight or body fat?

I've seen several of those shows, and I must say being those doctors, it must be very frustrating. People don't like that it comes down to calories in < calories out.Also, sorry OP for the minor meandering in your thread, I thought it was interesting how the doctors plainly said a calorie is a calorie and it's down to how many you're eating and yet her take-out was different.
Granted, it can be a guessing game trying to figure out what your calories in and your calories out, so I get that it is equally frustrating for people who feel that they can't lose.
OP, it is incredibly easy to underestimate how much you are eating; even nutritionists underestimated their intake in a research study, and that's what they do for a living. Make sure you are using the MFP app and logging as accurately as possible (I also recommend a food scale that measures in grams).
I also am not sure how long you've done this. Weight loss isn't linear, and if you've just started a workout program, your weight can go up due to water retention (increased cortisol and muscle recovery). You even will swell with the water, which could make your clothes tighter.
Make sure you're logging accurately, and give it time.0 -

Rice and starchy root vegetables are your friends.
No - a food scale is her friend.
I didn't comment on that.
And plenty of people do just fine without one, since you brought it up. I agree the OP could use some help with portion recognition, but that has nothing to do with my comment.
lol - her question is about the fact that she has not lost a single pound in 4 months and you suggest adding some higher calorie foods to her diet.
Excellent advice. She's clearly eating enough calories - and that includes rice, your advice is pointless at best, opposite to her goals at worse.
She clearly isn't doing fine without one - so the fact that some people don't need them is again - pointless.

OP - I have been where you are. I think you're over training and eating way too little . You mentioned your hair was falling out.
Given that intense training schedule you need to eat more than 1200 calories! I attempted a similar thing and didn't lose 1 pound in SIX months. Talk about frustrated.
So I bought 2 digital scales. One for the bathroom and one for the kitchen. And I radically cut back on exercise - the gym doesn't rule my life anymore. I weight train a couple times a week and take a yoga class (great for core conditioning) and if I'm not going out for pizza and beer I'll take a dance class for fun.
My body seems to be a lot happier without all the abuse I.e. training every day. Since I backed off that crazy schedule and started eating MORE, I've lost almost 8 lbs in 21 days.

Stop dining out. There are way more calories in those dishes than you think, and the portion sizes they serve in restaurants are often 3 - 4 times the normal serving size. I limit my dining out to twice a month. Plus you save way more money cooking your own food than going out to dinner. And I agree with others, buy a food scale and weigh everything.
Second, you need to see an endocrinologist for your PCOS, not a gynecologist. A gyno will treat the symptoms, but an endo will get more to the root of the problem.
Third, six days a week is a little extreme. Only one rest day? Your body needs more time repair itself after an intense workout.0 -

You weren't weighing your food, but knew you were eating too little?
Okay.
OP, again, please get a food scale. When you are not losing weight, it's the quickest way to get to the bottom of your problems. I've been there with estimating my intake and being sure that I was eating a certain amount of calories. I was dead wrong. Being accurate really will get you on track.

So much good advice here but it is getting lost in the derailment. OP, I hope you're getting the benefits of the good advice.
You are certainly eating too much.

First you are probably gaining muscle.
Next start taking measurements and get away from the scale for awhile, this will keep you from getting frustrated as out bodies fluctuate in weight throughout the week. I weight myself once a week at the most, on the same day first thing in the morning.
Don't follow fad diets, your body needs 30-40% carbs 20% fats and 15% protein to be healthy. If you are not getting the proper nutrients your body will stock up. Make sure you take a multivitamin. Just remember have at least a 500 calorie deficit a day. 3500= 1 pound of fat
Change up your workout, you don't have to do the same thing all the time or your body is going to adapt to it. Go run, swim, bike, do yoga, take some different classes. Weighs are awesome for building muscle, and cardio is good for your heart!
DRINK WATER you seem to be doing a good job of that, but water is the most important thing you can put in your body! Drink half your body weight in ounces every day! You never want to lose water weight because once you drink water again that weight will come back. You want to focus on loosing fat.
Last relax, the more you stress the more your body will store fat or make you want to eat. I know it can be frustrating I have been there. My own struggles have lead me to finding my career in exercise science and on my way to become a physical therapist. I hope this helps! You can do it! Don't let anyone get you down!!0 -

Lots of good advice. I ditto the weighing and measuring comments. I never got any real results until I got serious about logging every single thing I ate and started weighing and measuring.
I eat out a fair bit because I enjoy it and so does my family, but I am aware that it tends to introduce a lot of uncertainty into my calories for the day especially at places without even rough nutritional information. Unless you specifically tell them to cook your food without any oil or butter, you have no idea really how much was used. If I don't lose on a week where I think I should have, that's the first place I look.

I haven't lost a single kg, i haven't lost a single % of body fat, nor has my BMI reduced.
I work hard, I work really hard. I have a personal trainer who advices me on my nutrition, but nothing. nada. zero. To the point I feel that my partner is so embarrassed of being out with me.
ON TOP OF THAT, i am a regular 10km race runner - just completed 3 10km races in the month of July.
NUTRITION
Breakfast:
- I avoid carbs except breakfast - have either oats or wholemeal bread
- 1 hard boil egg
- 1 kiwi
- 1 banana
- 1 cup organic honey + warm water and lemon
- -> I generally have to take a bit more in the breakfast like these because i have problem with low blood sugar levels and low blood pressure. i get dizzy very very easily - to the point i can faint
Lunch:
- some days i'll have salad - hoping to make it 3 times a week
- i avoid carbs - just have lightly stirfried vegetables with minimal oil and pinch of salt (i'm not big on salt)
- either Chicken breast OR i'll usually have fish - i'm a fish lover
Snack:
- apple
- i am troubled by snacks because i have severe gastric problems and i'm advised to eat as often as i can and sometimes apples just make me feel so awful in the stomach
- so sometimes i'll have a bowl of soup and a small bread bun wholemeal
Dinner:
- i'll usually dine out with my partner - but i'll avoid carbs
- e.g. last night i had grilled fish with salad and mash potatoes (sometimes i reward myself a little when i have worked hard for the day)
- or Chinese dishes
- Sushi - my biggest weakness is sushi - raw fish
Sorry if someone already covered this - didn't read through all the posts thoroughly . . . I was just wow'd by this as someone who also runs (and is currently in training for a 10K)
So by stating you avoid carbs, I'm assuming you mean starchy carbs since bananas have a very large amount of carbs in them (some bananas - depending on size - up to 40g, maybe more)
Anyways, how long have you been a runner for? And why do you not eat starchy carbs as a runner? I get you're not in the long distances, but you still need carbs (and some starchy ones at that, like bagels, pasta, etc) for nutrition. Some people may disagree but I have found my runs (I do 5K and 10K distances) are better when I've eaten starchy carbs (in moderation) as a regular part of my diet . . . carbs like brown rice, sweet potatoes, etc etc normally and then carbs like pasta or baked potatoes once or twice a week. I'm curious how you're running is going when you have such a low intake of carbs for someone who stated she's a regular 10K runner.
ETA: you state you usually avoid carbs but your example of what you had for dinner just yesterday includes mashed potatoes (maybe this was one time thing, maybe not) which you don't know how they're made - could have tons of cream or butter in them when made at a restaurant.
Also, I don't know the nutritional value of sushi because I don't eat it, but isn't one of the main ingredients rice? That's a whole lot of carbs right there, too.

As everyone else stated, you're not logging your foods correctly. I also don't think you're eating enough quality food either. Put some freakin protein in your diet! Also you say you eat "low carb" but eat apples pretty consistently, which have a lot of carbs. A low carb isn't necessary either, as everyone else mentioned. I, however, am on a low carb diet as well. I eat low carb (between 100-135 per day give or take), however every 3rd or 4th day I have a carb load day. My logic (this is what works for me), is that 3-4 days is long enough to put my body into keto, and then on the carb day, the carbs I eat are immediately converted into pure energy. And when I carb load I *still* don't go over my calorie goal. I exercise 5-6 days a week, and eat around 1500-1600 calories a day. You should also get your TDEE, so you can more accurately eat the calories you need. I would *die* if I only ate 1200 calories a day. Die.0

Not entirely familiar, but as PCOS raises testosterone, if a woman had the genes for male pattern baldness, the testosterone could activate them. A woman with PCOS but without male pattern baldness genes wouldn't experience the hair loss.dahhhhhling wrote: »Hair loss is actually a common problem with women who have PCOS.
