Heya~
Ive been losing weight since start of January this year but now it seems I can't lose any more? I am doing a calorie deficit and exercising everyday. But these days I sweat less when working out and my weight won't budge! Usually you would lose 0.4-0.9kg overnight but I lose lesser. What's going on with me??

    It's not realistic to expect to lose weight every day, let alone 0.4-0.9kg per dag. Weight loss is not linear.
    Or do you mean 0.4-0.9kg lower in the morning compared to the evening? That's hardly relevant data, just weigh yourself in the morning, in the same circumstances and look at your weight trend over a month or so.

    If you tell us more about yourself and your situation, we might be able to give more specific advice.
    Your sex, age, height, current weight and goal weight? How long have you been 'stuck'? How much weight have you lost since January?

    First off, sweating has very little to do with FAT loss... it can contribute to weight loss by decreasing the amount of water in your body, but that weight (water loss) will return as soon as you hydrate yourself.

    Actual FAT loss is accomplished by eating fewer calories than you burn in a day. Fat/sugar are used by the body for energy and the byproducts of converting fat/sugar to energy are actually breathed out, they are not expelled by sweat (there is a thread around here somewhere that details this process, I am just too lazy to go search for it right now).

    How are you measuring your calorie intake? How much weight do you have to lose?
