Can anyone look at my diary and tell me what I can change and how I can better my diet ?

    Do you weigh everything with scales? You have melon in your diary weighed by fluid ounce?

    Why would you need to substitute carbs ? Do you have a medical condition ? Has a doctor told you to restrict carbs ?

    Based on a brief look at the last few days, it looks like most days you're eating right around 1,000 calories. It's possible that you have metabolic damage (basically your metabolism can slow down due to long-term low calorie intake).

    It also looks like quite a bit of what you're eating is fairly processed (as in pre-packaged or not simple fresh foods). Quite often, this means more salt which can also (with me especially) cause bloating.

    Finally, I'm assuming what was meant by this is that your carbs are fairly high in comparison to your protein.

    It may help to shift what you're eating so you're consuming proportionally more protein.

    Feel free to add me & message me with more questions. I'd be happy to share some resources I've personally found helpful. :smiley:

    Scroll back to before the 10th of FEBRUARY and have a look!

    The 10th Feb is over 3 months ago.

    If OP is weighing in Oz or grams for the last 3 months, surely that is not the issue here.

    Someone quoted me asking about fluid oz, that is all I was responding to.
