    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.

    No diary entries found.

    Are you going low carb? primal? How many calories are you planning every day? Do you have a plan?

    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 time

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

    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."

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

    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.

    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?

    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.

    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.

    No no. Your body only holds on to fat if you have an issue with insulin production.

    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!

    Have you tried a probiotic? That typically helps me. I like Pearls.

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