I am not losing at all this week. As a matter of fact I am gaining (like 3 lbs!) Can someone look at my logs and tell me what I am doing wrong and what should I change?

Your diary is private so we can't see it.0

Your diet is loaded with omega 6's and should be loaded with omega 3's
Google 6's and stop consuming them.0 -
Two things I noticed... you don't have a lot of veg in your diet and you have lots of red meat which is high in fat. Try taking away some of the beef and adding lean chicken, fish, egg whites.0

I agree with the above posts but also cut back on using sauces... they have a lot of sugar in them.0

I agree to add in more lean meats (chicken, fish, etc) and less red meats. Also, you're not eating enough if you are logging everything. In general, you shouldn't net below 1200 (minimum), you should eat 15% below your TDEE. You can find out that number here: http://scoobysworkshop.com/calorie-calculator/0

Don't be afraid of eating all of the calories available. Eat every last one and enjoy them. Eating 900 a day won't help you.0

Mine too please! I am desperate for somebody to tell me what the heck I'm doing wrong...0

I definitely think it looks like most days you are not eating nearly enough which can hinder your weight loss. I agree with above posters talking about sauces and red meat. Try changing up some of the ground beef for ground turkey0

It doesnt matter what you eat as long as it fits into your macronutrients daily.
So if you preset your diary the night before.....
1) put in all the food you should eat.
2) put in all the food you want to eat.
3) if you go into the red on anything look at the foods you WANT to eat and deduct what doesnt fit.
Just a quick note on cutting calories, I can fit McDonalds into every cut day.
I can fit ________ food into any cut day.
You can eat anything as long as you are in a deficit you will lose weight.....kinda....

Hell ya I totally do that and I didn't even realize it. Pre-entering all your food data makes it so much easier. Also, doing that gets much easier the more you log.0 -

high on carbs and sugar. your morning yogurt has 33g sugar. thats more than i typically consume all day0 -
I suggest cutting out the processed food. it will lower your salt. and I also suggest eating fresh fruit and vegetables. you can eat WAY WAY more because the cals are low and it is amaing for you. best of luck!0

If you gained 3 lbs in one week it is likely to be water weight. You'd have to eat 10,500 excess calories to gain 3 lbs. If what others are saying is true then 900 is way too low. 1200 is the minimum recommended for a woman under doctor's supervision. Look up the group eat more to weigh less and educate yourself about eating above your BMR but below your TDEE.0 -
As stated above if you are under you total calorie goal you should lose weight, by looking at your diary for today there was nothing wrong with it you can eat red meat and sauces as long as your under your calorie count you will lose. If you are not that means you might not be eating enough calories overall so your body will hold the fat it has. Are you planing on eating 900 calories for the rest of your life to keep the weight off, I don't think so.So try eating more and see if that helps0
