Hey GUYS what is your calorie count?

Go here and figure up his TDEE. If he is exercising for an hour every day, his activity level should be "heavy." Once you have his TDEE, take 15% off of that, and THAT is what he should be eating. Also tell him to set his macros to 40%carbs, 30%fat and 30%protein. That should take care of things

What type of exercise? If he's lifting weights, or even if he's just fairly new to exercise, he may be replacing fat weight with muscle weight... which isn't a bad thing. If he's doing a lot of exercise, it might be worth investing in a body fat measuring device, such as some of those electrode scales, to get a real sense of whether he's progressing or not.

2000? for the amount of exercise he is doing he is not eating enough. I weigh 312, almost same height 6'3, a little older and I average 2600-2900 on days I don't exercise.

He hasn't been going for long, about a week and a half. The problem is he is getting discouraged.
He works out on the elliptical.
He is eating what is within his calorie range. I mean he doesn't eat to many fatty foods.

The other option is to get a heart-rate monitor to get a proper estimate of the calories he's burning off exercising. I find this site overestimates exercise calories quite heavily compared to my HRM.

But yeah, I agree with what someone else said that it sounds like he's undereating with those figures you provided.

Um this may sound odd but he has to EAT MORE! Men typically need to consume while on a diet 2600-3000 calories. As they burn it much faster then woman do ne ways. Hint: Y they always lose weight faster then girls IF they are eating correctly and working out. Trust me it works.. Cuz last month I had my boyfriend doin Insanity with me eating around 2600-3000 calories and sure enough, He lost all his weight super fast It kinda honestly, Discouraged me as I have been doin Insanity for almost 2 months now and Only lost 4 pounds
I eat around 1800-2000 per day so yea ur boyfriend needs to eat more!!!!

I eat at least 2870 calories per day. My activity level is moderate to heavy workload every week.

I can't tell you all of the specifics about losing weight as I'm still figuring that out myself, but what I can tell you, or rather tell your husband, is that you should NEVER give up. I used to be easily discouraged. I had always been a really petite person, and when I started gaining weight after having children, I figured I would naturally go back to my original size...easier said than done. Also, when I was really small, I ate everything I wanted and never gain a pound. Well, I'm a living witness that nothing stays the same. However, when I was small, I was super active. ...always doing something. I found that my problem since gaining weight was that my lifestyle has become somewhat sedentary. I have given up on weightloss several times within the last 4 years. I start doing better then I slack off completely. This time I am determined it will be different. I watch what I eat, but I don't forbid myself from eating things I enjoy. I try to work out at least 5 days a week (really intense). Right now, I'm trying to focus on walking more b/c though I do Zumba and kickboxing, I don't do a lot of walking. I've been a member on MFP for about 3 weeks, and I have lost 3 lbs so far so I'm on target. My advice is to take one day at a time, and if the scale is discouraging him, stop using it for a while. Remember, this is about more than weigh loss, but about a new, healthy lifestyle. The weight will come off eventually. While he's feeling discouraged, make sure you stay encouraged and give him all of your support.

Wishing you well,
