Please Help, I'm not losing weight anymore

Gawd this site makes me so sad sometimes. People destroying themselves to "get healthy" is just so aweful. Please go see a doctor and get the help you need.

Thank you everyone. I didn't realize the danger I was causing to my body. Change is on it's way!

Glad to hear it!!!!!!!

The answer lies in your question itself - before you were not exercising much, so with whatever little you were eating, it was enough consumption and deficit for that level of activity. Now you are exercising A LOT more, so you need A LOT more food too..Your TDEE has obviously increased, so your calorie consumption must increase too and you should maintain a healthy deficit, not the kind of insane deficits you are currently following coz clearly your body is probably in starvation mode and so is storing every bit of food you give it. If you eat more, your metabolism will start ticking again and you will start seeing weight loss.. In summary, EAT MORE TO LOSE MORE !

Actually, I do and do not agree with what is being said.

1 ) I agree the weight loss is way too fast
2) but the math is not adding up...if this person is eating too little, and exercising a lot, he should still be losing weight. And it does not compute even if he is adding muscle or if his body is in starvation mode. Starvation mode only slows consumption a little...not as much as being reported.


Think about it...you don't believe in perpetual motion machines because they defy the laws of physics. And, if you are burning calories thru exercise and not replacing them, you lose weight...simple as that!

There are 2 simple explanations for the situation:

1) the person is not properly counting the calories being consumed. Or:
2) the person is not expending as much energy as he thinks exercising.

Sorry, everyone, but simple laws of physics apply....the details are incorrect.

Okay,so before anyone says anything, I am completely aware that my calorie intake is very low. The thing is, I tried this exact diet before and lost 36lbs in a month, and I only did about 20min at the most of exercise. Now I'm doing so much more, and I stopped losing weight, if anything I feel like I'm gaining it. I workout ALOT everyday. I'm starting to feel very discouraged and I just wanna give up. I feel like, what's the point of this?! I just don't understand. I was losing like a lbs everyday, and now it stopped and I feel stuck. Someone please help! My diary is public so feel free to take a look. ONLY constructive criticism wanted. Thank's Everyone.

Sounds like you're too much "in a hurry." Set your weekly loss goals to 2 lbs (max), or less. Then, place emphasis on fats and proteins, minimizing carbs as you can. (If you can keep carbs at 20% +/- that would be very good; but keeping them lower, relative to fats and proteins is the thing).
