IS there anyone else out there who CAN"T lose weight on 1200 cals or more? I really have tried. Many times. Even when I do all the "right things" (exercise, eat 80% clean etc...) I just can't. I even tried doing a metabolism reset and , in 5 weeks gained 11 lbs!!!!

Then, when I cut to above my BMR but blewo TDEE I STill gained. (2 more lbs ;(

Is it possible that some of us have to eat vlc? Am i alone in this? (BTW, I do exercise. A lot. I do p90x 4-5 days a week)

thanks.

Have you been to see a doctor? Gaining on 1200 calories is not normal for most people. You may want to rule out medical conditions, and once cleared, it may be beneficial to talk to a nutrition counselor. Something isn't adding up.

I have had a physical recently and everything was good. I regulary have my thyroid checked b/c my mom has severe hypothyroidism. THanks for your response.

I agree you might want to talk to your doctor. Underactive thyroid is the first thing that comes to mind, that makes it very difficult to lose weight.

We cross posted, just saw your response. Sorry, I don't know what might be going on. It sounds like your TDEE calculation might not be accurate for you.
