Frustrated. What am I doing wrong!?

In my opinion based on experience and reading other posts around here, I would guess that you're not eating enough. Particularly if you're doing a rigorous program like 30-day Shred, you probably need to be eating more than 1000 calories (even netting more than that, including eating back calories burned from exercise). I've read, several times, advice recommending not going below 1200 calories NET (again, including eating more to account for exercise). I recommend you try netting at least 1200, maybe between 1200 - 1400 ?

Just my $0.02. Good luck to you and remember, it's a long, persistent process.

Sometimes paying attention to pounds isn't the best way to guage weight loss. How are your clothes fitting?

You need to eat more. Your body has gone into starvation mode and is holding on to every calorie you eat. Women need at least 1,200 calories a day.

well 1st it appears by your statement you are only eating 1000 plus working out... right there might be a little problem your not eating enough calories and your body to storing the food. You need to make sure you net calories are at least 1200 a day.

I agree with Angela.

Hopefully you can get an answer to your questions.

I do agree, cutting too many calories can put your body into starvation mode and cause you to stop losing weight. Use this formula to see how many calories you need to eat every day:

1. Take your weight (or a good weight for your body) and multiply it by 10. This estimates your resting metabolic rate (RMR, the amount of energy you need to simply exist, pump blood, breathe, etc.). If you weigh 140 pounds, your RMR is about 1,400 calories -- the amount you'd burn if you were to run for 14 miles!
2. Add to your RMR about half that number for activities of daily living. For example, if you weigh 140 pounds and are moderately active (without your purposeful exercise), you need about 700 calories for daily living. Add fewer calories if you are sedentary.
Next, add calories for purposeful exercise. For example, a 140-pound person would need about 1,400 calories (RMR) + 700 (daily living) + 300 (for 30 minutes of exercise) = 2,400 calories to maintain weight.
3. To lose weight, deduct 20 percent, to about 1,900 calories. This translates into 600 calories for breakfast/snack, 700 for lunch/snack, and 600 for dinner/snack (or the equivalent of 11-13 Fig Newtons per section of the day.)

if you stay closer to a healthy, reduced calorie diet, you should start to lose weight pretty quickly. Good luck!

You probably lost water weight the first week. If you aren't drinking enough water or are consuming too much sodium you will retain water which will cause a gain. Make sure you're meeting your calorie goal and eating your exercise calories and avoid processed foods.

imo I'd eat 1300 cal. a day. I did the 30 day shred last year after I had my son & lost 34#;s in 4 months. When I started it this year again it wasn't so much so I had to try something different. You'll always fluxuate here & there but 6# in the first week is A LOT. if you've just started working out after not for a while you can expect a big # like that & then it'll slow down dramatically. did for me this time around anyway. Just make sure you do a level everyday for the 30 days! Good luck!

I agree with what everone else is saying. you need to eat more. I had the same problem. let us know how it works for you.
