I think I'm doing something wrong :(

I'm wondering if your entries are correct, I mean just an obvious example is the use of black beans you keep using the dry entry which is the hard uncooked bean and I just can't imagine you are eating them hard and crunchy out of the bag. For that matter while you seem to have "healthy" kale soups and shakes, and some fruit snacks, the in between looks like fast food and take out which are abnormally high in sodium and simple carbs, I also suspect they just inject extra calories into that crap as I can always make it at home for less. You might also try reviewing your calorie goals based on your activity level, the general rule is if your not losing you are either eating at your maintenance level thus eating too many calories to lose or your not moving enough.

Looks like you may be under eating in two different ways. #1, you are having too few calories most days. Based on your height and weight your TDEE is about 2000 calories a day. Eating at 1500-1600 should net you a 3500 calorie deficit each week for about a 1lb loss. You are also eating too few meals each day. Eating only 2 or 3 times a day may cause your body to want to store some food for energy use later in the day. Eating too few meals and too few calories creates kind of a double cross. You eat too many calories that your body can immediately use at the time of the meal, so, it holds on to some for later when it "needs" it. Simply eating 4 or 5 meals a day will help keep your body using the food you eat as energy and not need to store any. The two added meals could be as simple as a protein shake or a handfull of almonds. Simple snacks can just keep that metabolism burning.

Next... STAY AWAY FROM PROCESSED FOODS! Not only do they contain bad fats, but, a slew of sodium and a list of things that you can't even pronounce. Need a quick lunch and Subway is your best option? Bring a chicken breast from home, grab a 6" veggie with mustard and add your own chicken. Eating whole foods are not only better for you, but, will give you more things your body need and keep your feeling fuller longer.

How much water are you drinking? Fruits and Veggies? Any way you can add exercise?

Are you drinking any water at all or getting enough water in for each day? I just didn't see you log that in. Water is a part of that weight game changer too, it will help your body filter out toxins and hydrate otherwise you'll retain water weight gain and suffer from dehydration & loss of energy.

Haven't read through the other comments, but I would cut back on the carbs and sodium.

I agree with most posts, however shake meal replacements get old very fast and we tend to snack and not record it. Also you need to drink and log water and Exercise, Exercise, exercise. move around and do something every hour.

You should add the sodium tracker to food journal. It can be a real eye opener how quick you can go over your daily amount allotted.

Yes and then change the allotted amount from 2500 to 1800. 2500 is waaaay too much.

ETA: Unless you are matching the amount of potassium you eat. Which most people don't.

^^^ This. At 2500 calories a day, you'll be lucky not to gain

This helped me!

I actually dont eat out much, but sometimes I have to put in estimations (my husband is a chef). As for burgers I'm pretty sure I've only had one burger (cheeseburger) and one Black bean burger in the few weeks I've been tracking. I'm not sure where the sandwich is but I dont eat those either. It's possible that bread was logged to go with the kale soup? Taco shells were with the spinach wraps, I'm still trying to figure out what I can replace those with (170 calories!!) I did have a moment of weakness with the pizza last weekend That's all me.

I'll start watching the carbs for sure, and I've already changed my sodium settings!

Ole Mexico makes a great spinach and herb wrap with only 74 calories, 2g fat, 12g fiber and 7g protein. They have other flavors too that are all good.

You can enter recipe ingredients into MFP and it will calculate the nutrients for you. Sometimes it's a pain, but it helps get a better knowledge and understanding of exactly what you're eating. Also, a food scale. Best thing I ever did. If it can weighed or measured, I do it! I thought I had a good idea of "how much" of whatever I was putting in my body. Nope. Not even close!

In my opinion, you should try eating more often. 5-6 times a day....keeps your metabolism going and make every meal count....protein in every meal. My diary is public. You're welcome to check it out. It's not perfect, but it's a lot better than it used to be.

Keep on truckin' and good luck!
