Hi everyone my name is Zara 48 years old
I need to loose about 3st in weight. I started the recommended 1200 calorie plan on MFP and this is my 4th week. The past week I have lost and then gained 2Lbs I find it very frustrating as I'm sticking to the plan and burning 1000 calories a day either on treadmill or long walks. I'm not seeing the results for the effort I'm putting in. Feel very demotivated. Any tips help advice or support would be appriciated. :)

    Your calorie goal could be to low that's why you gained weight

    Your body might be in starvation mode up the calories a bit because you doing so much exercises try 1300 might work

    Starvation mode is a myth. I looked at your diary and it looks like you must have a good scale and are measuring in grams? How are you tracking your exercise? 1000 calories for a long walk or walking on the treadmill sounds like a lot. Could the 2lbs. gain be due to TOM?
