I just can't lose weight!

Options
I joined MFP like a whole two weeks ago so the weight should be dropping off! I even set my calorie allowance to 1200cals a day and set my activity to sedentary! A little back ground information...

• I log every now and then, at least twice a week sometimes more sometimes less.

• I estimate all my portions by sight, sometimes I even use measuring cups and spoons.

• I log my exercise, like yesterday I went for an hour walk and the database said I burned 900cals why would it lie.

• I only eat healthy food and everyone knows that healthy food is negative calories right.

• I switched to low fat which means I can eat so much more and yet I don't lose...actually I might have gained.

• My friends eat all the time and they are skinny and I hardly eat so I have to lose weight I don't understand.

• I've tried paleo, soup diets, shakeology, cut out carbs etc and everyone knows that if you do a special restrictive diet you'll definitely lose weight especially if you aren't enjoying it.

• I pay close attention to what my BeachBody coach and DR Oz are telling me and what I should buy.

• I bought Raspberry Ketones and Green Coffee Bean Extract! Why isn't it working.

Did I mention it has been a whole two weeks!?!

    I alternate between paleo, prancercise, and shakeweight. If you plateau, go part-time vegan. :flowerforyou:

    Should I eat 8 or ten small meals a day thou? and will prancercise make me bulky? as I heard lifting weights makes you huge and I don't want to look like Arnold Schwarzenegger in a month.

    Mini-tramps are the best.

    Nope. P-size is all about graceful, long, lean, dancer's muscles.
