    Hi and Welcome.

    How many calories are you eating right now? How are your macros?
    Are you doing any exercises?

    Hey, there. I would definitely read Helloitsdan's Roadmap. He's awesome. I was eating way too few cals when I first started, which was actually just making me maintain. (I eat Paleo/Primal, so I thought maybe if I lowered my cals, it'd be better.) I wasn't losing any weight! So I tried his calcs for TDEE and have mine set to my highest TDEE (which includes exercise level). That way I know if I eat up to that I will still lose...or maintain (if at the highest) and go up if I eat over it. I try to aim for 20% (about 500 cals) below my TDEE and NEVER go as low as my BMR. Hope this helps. I lost seven or so lbs. so far in three weeks following his advice, so I know it works. Best thing is...I don't ever starve! :) Hang in there. And eat.

    Hey we have similar body stats! I guess you're set at light exercise? I'm at moderate and to maintain (which I guess you're at?) I have to eat around 1800-2000 a day ish I think. I haven't reached that yet as I am a new member and I'm graduating my calories. :)
