    Sodium = retained water = retained (and false) weight gain. Eat more whole unprocessed foods and increase water (i drink way more then I log)

    I found out this week I have a vitamin deficiency.. means a pill for the rest of my life.. don't hope for that.. but if it makes a difference I'll let ya know.. I'm sure it will though.. it's been linked to so many things.

    You might have over calculated or under calculated your numbers. I don't do the TDEE thing just yet.. I'm excited to eat over 1200 currently, regardless of exercise, but if you are eating too much you won't lose.

    If you are lifting, you are likely losing fat and gaining muscle.. so you won't lose weight, you'll lose inches. Muscle does not weight more then fat, it just has less mass, so a pound of muscle takes up less space then a pound of fat. So 100 pounds of muscle is much smaller then 100 pounds of fat, even though they weight the same. (This is my current struggle, no weight loss, but definitely getting tighter and more toned, I'm happy about it.. but I had to step away from the scale for mental health. LOL)

    Just don't give up and keep aiming for a healthy lifestyle.

    The things that are most worth it are often the hardest to attain.

    just wanted to update in case anyone checks this...I got my blood work results today and I have a B12 and vitamin D deficiency. Both are easily supplemented, so we will see how that goes. No thyroid problems, so that's good :) thanks again to everyone for their responses, I really appreciate it!
