I am 5'5 and weigh 142, I have lost about 10lbs. I have been sticking to a calorie deficit and exercising but I can't seem to lose any more weight and I'm still kinda chunky. Am I doing something wrong or how can I get back to losing.

    Make sure your weighing food correct and track correctly. Your not in a deficit then. It's all a mathematical equation.

    Your body eats X calories a day
    Your body burns Y calories a day
    X-Y = your daily calorie intake

    Example - X=1500cals Y=1800cals

    1500-1800 = -300

    -300 times a 7 day week = 2100calories

    Your burn 2100 weekly
    4200 bi weekly so that would give you
    3500= a pound 700= 1/5th pound
    Every two weeks you lose 1 1/5lbs

    Hope this helped you out!
    Don't stress and keep it up!

    Keep carbs below 100 grams/day. :)

    Unfortunately, Doctors are rarely the solution. Just create more problems... ;)
