hi I've been using Mfp for 5 months now and haven't lost weight, I'm 110 lbs and been eating around 1500-1000 calories a day, should I decrease my calorific intake further??

How much water do you drink, how much do you workout?? what are you eating?0

I know it's frustrating when the numbers on the scale don't budge...but what about your measurements? Is your body changing at all? I know that for me the scale will hover around 5lbs while my measurements go down...then the scale will change some..then the measurements. I like to go by the numbers on my tape measure more then the scale Good luck and don't give up!0

Your 110 pounds trying to lose 22 pounds?0

Are you quite short, as a 6 stone target isn't very heavy!0

Probably about 3-4 glasses of water a day, exercise for 30mins a day, don't eat very healthily mainly pasta and breads not much fruit or veg either but I don't eat a lot, not sure if this could be affecting weight loss0

What is your goal?? 110 is already super low!0

Becca,
I see you're hoping to lose 22 lbs... That would put you at 88 lbs. final weight as an 18 year old... Is that a safe weight loss goal for you? Maybe your body isn't designed to weigh 88 lbs?0 -
How tall are you?0

Hi!

How tall are you? You aren't going to lose weight if you are already underweight.0

That's exactly what I was thinking0 -
Unless you are very very short you don't need to lose any weight.0

You should
1) open up your diarys so folks can see them and give advice
2) really work on eating healthy vs not eating a lot (your body could be sabatoging you)
3) be realistic on you your target weight. Is it correct for your age and height etc. (use the tools/calculators)
Good luck.0 -
No body measurements aren't changing at all, my body doesnt seem to want to lose anything, don't want to loser 22 lbs my target must be wrong 10lbs at the most0

Hey there
Did you say you weigh 110 lbs? I don't know your frame, height and dress size, but to me, it sounds like you are already where you should be with your weight. If you have noticed "fat" in certain areas, since you are already at a low weight you should consider lifting, crunches, lunges, etc. Up your protein intake as well.0 -

Exactly. Not thinking that's a very safe goal to have. I always say to myself, who am I to say how much someone should weigh...I normally would say whatever they feel best at. But really, my almost 10 year old weighs 89 pounds...sooo...0 -
But that still puts you at 7 stone - maybe you are already at your correct weight0

Okay these people are sugar coating it, Girl you need help. 110lbs is already skinny unless you are about 4' tall. I believe you have a warped perception of your self and probably need to seek the help of a counselor. Does your momma know your on here and trying to lose weight?0

At 5' 5" you are clinically "under weight" at 18.3 BMI... your weight SHOULD be stuck on a plateau! DO NOT continue dieting without consulting a physician!!
