On a 1,500 calorie diet, but not losing weight?!

1500 for a 19 yr old male isn't enough. Eat more so you can lose... and don't exercise for 1.5 hours! No need to.0

So....if you just joined on the 18th...that's 4 days. Not a lot of time. Adding exercise you haven't done before? Weighing and measuring everything ? If you are doing what was suggested, give it time.
you are a 19 year old male. Who told you to eat 1500 calories? I'm 47 and lazy as hell and that's my calorie goal!

Try raising your exercise to 1.5 hours. If you just started, you may not see a loss for a month or more. Stick with it. The scale will move. I promise.
There is no need to exercise for an hour and a half! Yuck! Losing weight is about a calorie deficit and you can do that all with food or a mix of food/exercise.
An hour and a half is nothing unless you are horribly lazy.
There is NO NEED to be doing 1.5 hours of exercise a day, unless you are training for an endurance event..
But you're the lady that survives on 200 calories net per day, so you know EVERYTHING

I suppose one might ask then, how much exercise you do a day? not including dorito lifts.0
