    It is just sugar free squash that you add water to. So it is only 3 calories per glass

    We don't have squash in the US, for the longest time I thought people were talking about the fruits that are in the squash family, like zucchinis and pumpkins and butternut squash. I was like, how are they drinking that? :lol:

    Assuming we have missed no issues, the next option is to take a diet break. A month or two of eating maintenance calories, and then get back to it.

    There is a good thread about diet breaks and refeeds, but I can't seem to find it. Maybe someone else has it and can link it.

    I am hoping someone will be able to help me spot where I am going wrong. I have been dieting for several months now at around 1500 calories a day, but I can't seem to get any lower weight wise. I am completely stuck at 11st 6lbs and have been for several weeks now.

    I have a completely desk based job, so i focus on exercising in the forms of weight training, cardio and badminton at least every day. I drink nothing other than green tea and squash.

    I have added images of my usual daily dieting and was wondering if anyone can spot what I might be doing wrong?

    The help would be greatly appreciated.

    Try lowering your calories by 200 or increasing exercise. Also, if you have been dieting non stop for a while it might be good to have a cheat to kick start your metabolism.

    Not a thing.

    I really don’t know. But at 160, aiming for 140, are your expectations too high? You probably shouldn’t be losing very fast?

    You’re taking in a lot of carbs. It isn’t a bad thing, we need carbs! Every meal should be 3 ounces of protein (actual meat or a soy substitute) 2-3 servings of carbs (a whole banana is 2 servings, so don’t go by the box. If you go by the serving size on the box count that as your 2-3) and a non-starchy veg (green beans, carrots, lettuce, spinach, salad, etc). It is a lot more food, but still low calorie. Watch it on drinks though, and try to drink mostly water. Those changes will help you out
