Eat but no gym

You also need to eat more than 1100 calories. Consume at least 1200 per day. Exercise will do you good of course. How old are you? I would say basketball practice would be enough exercise. I know in high school and college when I was practicing and training I would only do that. Nothing on my own time and I lost weight.

You need to eat more, but the whole working out thing is not absolutely necessary to lose weight. It does help, and if you do the right sort of workouts you could drastically improve you ball skills. I am thinking High Intensity Intervals using body weight and plyometric exercises.

I looked at your profile again, and you definitely need to eat more calories not only because you are an 18 year old male, but because you are within 8 pounds of your goal weight. If a person is obese their body can handle very large calorie deficits. When they are just overweight, they cannot handle as big a deficit. When they just have a little extra fat (say the last 10 or 15 pounds) a big deficit will work for a very short time, but your body will not want to get rid of that last fat. With the large deficit it will use other tissues instead. You need to eat more to lose weight well. I would change your settings to no more than 1 pound a week (maybe even less than that). You not benefiting your health they way, I know you are 18 and don't likely feel you need to worry about that, but realize this, if you take the weight off this way, your bodies first response to eating more normally will be to pack on fat again. If you were to measure you lean weight compared to your fat mass from before you started dieting and after you finish and likely gain the fat back you will find out something more that you might not like, you will have less muscle mass and more fat mass even at the same weigh you started out at.

I definitely think basketball practice and walking is enough exercise (assuming you're moving throughout the whole practice, and getting a good workout). Like many other posters, I'd suggest eating 200 - 300 calories more on the days you practice. In addition, if you want to lose weight faster, add strength training - even if it's just body weight exercises (push-ups, lunges, situps).

I don't go to the gym and I've lost 40 odd lbs since July 10. I do walk a lot more though, try and make sure I hit about 10k steps a day.

I didn't mean to quote you and now I can't get rid of it. Sorry.
