Been on an average of 1170 calories for the past week ...and the scale is up 0.4 kgs or 1 lbs today...I've been stallung for this weight (147.5 lbs) for more than 20 days now...
My calories intake never went above 1300 calories and I guess going lower than 1200 is unhelathy and not recommended.
Feel8ng totally frustrated and don't know what to do.
How many times ur weight is stalling during this journey? I only need another 10 lbs tp reach ideal weight...but these last 5 lbs were really hard to lose.
need some encouragement

    Agreed. You may not be taking in enough calories. Also, try changing things up-find a different way to get in some exercise and use some different muscle groups!

    You might try a refeed. One day eat 2000 calories then drop back down.

    I am 5' 3"...weighing 147.5 lbs ...and I am eating 1100 to 1200 calories aday weighing every 1 gm of anything getting in...I go for 45% carbs, 35% Prot. And 20% fats.
    I rarely hit all numbera as I cant fit more food within the day...I also follow daily fasting...eating from 3 pm to 12 am ...only...and fasting from 12am till 3pm next day....but weight is extremely slow lossing

    Getting less than 20g sugar/ day usually gets the scale moving

    Tighten up your logging. Understand that the last few pounds are going to require patience.
