How long have you been at this? That doesn't sound like a lot of food, but it's possible that you're expecting too much too quickly. If it's only been a couple of weeks and if the exercise is new or recently increased, it's entirely possible that you're just seeing some increased water weight, which looks like a stall on the scale but is really just masking your fat loss.0

No diary entries found.
Are you going low carb? primal? How many calories are you planning every day? Do you have a plan?0 -
No..been exercising and dieting for about 8 years.. but im trying to lose the last 10 and i feel like the only way is to do IF or just not eat much. So i dont eat till noon and dont eat after 7:30.. everyone says i have an eating disorder but i disagree because when i do eat bad im bloated all the time0

From looking at your pic, what exactly are you trying to lose? Doesnt look like you have much of anything to lose..0

They might be right ya know... Maybe your seeing yourself as fat? Questions age, height, and weight?0 -

Agreeing with this.
There's a saying: " If one person says something, you can probably ignore it. If 10 people say the exact same thing, there's probably some truth to it."0 -

If IF is making you constipated, do you think it's doing your body as much good as you think it is?0

You're going to get a lot of push back on that 'round these parts.
Track your calories. Eat to your goal. Don't go way under and obliviously don't go over. You want your 'Net' calories to be as close to "0" as possible (food - exercise).
Also, reeeeeeeeeeeeead:

^This. Doesn't look like you have any weight to lose. You are very tall and slim already.
Also, it appears you do not log your food in the food diary or use a food scale (based on the info you provided saying you ate 6 apple slices) so that's the first thing you need to go purchase.0 -

Define "eat bad." If you think eating bad means consuming the number of calories that you should be consuming daily, you just might have an eating disorder.
If you are bloated all the time, why not go see a gastroenterologist?0 -
you may be gaining muscle tone so go by measurements… when I start exercising/lifting weights, I gain weight and lose fat…my clothes are lose but I have gained 9 pounds!!! the scale gives you a number that most doctors will go by, but I've come to accept that my weight is not o reflection of me nor my health… many body builders would weigh in at obese.0

If you are eating under your goal expecting to lose weight, it will not happen. Your body thinks it is starving and starts holding on to the fat. Eat at your goal but eat smart and healthy.0

No no. Your body only holds on to fat if you have an issue with insulin production.0 -
i just reread… I don't know what IF is, but if you're bloated and not able to have good bowel movement, try dieter's green tea. it's herbal. I use it. also add more fiber/water based vegetables and fruits… watermelon is good!0

I have been lifting for 1 year and my legs and cellulite wont budge..i do lower days and upper days 2 times a week. I alternate days and run the other days..

I have had a colonoscopy with no problems (thank god)..i eat prunes flax drink tons of water and go about 2 times a week0 -
Have you tried a probiotic? That typically helps me. I like Pearls.I have been lifting for 1 year and my legs and cellulite wont budge..i do lower days and upper days 2 times a week. I alternate days and run the other days..

If you can't lose, you're eating too much... Got to start tracking your food.0

if you eat like today, every day, you're likely not getting enough fat in your diet to help 'move' things through your bowels. It does make a difference.0 -
I read the responses… varied and extremes… have you consulted a doctor? a specialist? they may not have all the answers but they can tell you what's going on in your body… like if you're holding stool in your intestines…
Cellulite… sometimes it can be lessened, and sometimes you have to live with it… go on line, read up…. get educated in the area of interest. sometimes massage can help loosen the fat and make it smooth. won't get rid of the fat… just smooth it… don't let people on here tell you what hype they're following as truth… you have to take responsibility for your learning about you.
my brother seems to think he knows more about things than everyone in our family but a lot of things he says are bunk. Read. learn. expand your world and know what to do.0 -
Talk to a nutritionist because your diet is absolutely terrible. If your friends think you have an eating disorder you should at least ask your doctor if your under weight and talk about your weight loss plans. If you really needto loose more weight you should eat more in the morning to get your metabolism going.0

This.
You need fats and oils to move things through your bowels.0 -
You are not overweight for your height. You also look very in shape to my eyes, from the picture I can see.
That said, you need to be eating enough food and enough fat to produce bowel movements.
You also might like to shake up your workout routine a bit and try something different maybe? I, personally, do a lot of boxing classes, as well as the odd run, cycling, walking, lower weight circuits and elliptical. I am also at 12% bodyfat. Same height as you.
I suggest adding some healthy fats like olive oil, avocado, nuts and seeds into your diet, get plenty of fresh vegetables and fruits, and strive for balance.0 -

You workout that much and your diet consists of things like "9 almonds" and "6 apple slices"?
Yeah, you have a problem with food honestly. You should probably seek counsel about that.0 -
IF is intermittent fasting. I do intermittent fasting ,and I'm not constipated. But then again, it doesn't work for everyone.
To the original poster, if you're not losing, is it possible you're eating a lot more than you think you're eating? It can happen. Also, 151 is in the healthy range for your height and based on your profile picture. It looks good on you.0 -

I count a grand total of 300 calories in the description of your diet. Granted you don't mention what you have for dinner but unless what you have for dinner is a 1 pound steak and a pile of mashed potatoes with butter then yeah you have eating issues. Someone your size and age working out that much should be having 2000+ calories even for weight loss.
You are exercising hard including HIIT and weight lifting while eating a horrible minimilist diet that is incredibly low in calories. Be honest with yourself, do you think this is healthy?0 -
Assuming this post is in earnest, go see a doctor and ask for a referral to a psychologist specializing in eating disorders.
There's no way you're getting adequate nutrition with the meals you've described in this and previous posts. You need protein if you want muscle. You need fat for many of the body's processes as well as to absorb nutrients. You need fiber (and fat) if you have constipation issues.0 -
EAT. MORE. FOOD.
Go get help - you have an eating disorder. Seriously.
