    Yeah it doesn't sound like much food at all. Maybe add more protein so you don't get hungry. Tinned salmon is nice too. How many calories are you eating?

    I have Young's Salmon pieces at least once a week too. The thing is, at the end of the day, I'm full. Anything extra and I'm stuffing myself aren't I? And I think it works out at just over 1000kcals.

    An easy change would be start eating full fat yogurt, greek yogurt would be best for the extra protein. More calories and you look like you need some fat in your diet. Eating fat doesn't make you fat and fat is needed by your body.

    Why did you ask for opinions and help on your diet when you clearly are not interested in changing what you're doing? You're arguing against every response and advice given to you.

    Add nuts, nut butter, avocados, full fat dairy for more calories and protein, plus healthy fat. 1000 calories is not enough food to sustain your bodily functions--your body will begin to take it from your muscle if you maintain this type of caloric deficit overtime. You won't be getting the micro-nutrients (vitamins and minerals) you need. But if you want to keep starving yourself, clearly we can't stop you.

    But I hope everyone saying you need to eat more will sink in and you'll begin to take better care of yourself.

    You are presently attempting to lose more than 1% of your body weight each week. The smaller you get, the worse that harms you. Please adjust your mfp goal to lose 1.5 lb per week and stay close to your daily calorie target net of exercise
