When I was eating about 1400 calories a day I gained 8 pounds over the course of like 4 months which is why I'm back on a low caloric diet because I gained so much weight so fast. I've been eating 1050-1150 calories for about 25 days and have lost 3 pounds. I'm just always tired. I'm usually always too tired to exercise…

I said before that whenever I eat more and work out I gain weight. I have a hard time maintaining so it's either eat low calories or eat more and work out which would only lead me to gain weight in unwanted areas

Usually more

Like if a package of oatmeal is 100 calories, it doesn't mean it's exactly 100, it can be up to 20% more or less

Yes I'm 22, are you losing or maintaining? What's your caloric intake?

Yeah I weigh my food and leave about 100 calories at the end of the day because I know calories can legally be 20% off the actual number

So could it be that my body just can't handle being at a Lower weight?

I don't exercise, I used to when I was a few pounds heavier. I usually feel too tired to exercise. I'm 5'6 and 133 pounds. Which is apparently healthy, my lowest weight was 124 and I want to be about 126-127 for summer

Oh ok I didn't even think of that! Thanks

I'm not sure. I can't really maintain weight. I lost 60 pounds a few years ago by eating 1250 calories a day, then I got lazy and started eating around 1400 calories a day and gained about 8 pounds so now I'm going back to lower calories. When I lost 60 pounds I feel the same way I do now, very weak and tired

I'm eating around 1050-1150 calories a day. I gain weight when I eat around 1300-1400 a day. So eating low calorie seems to be the only way I can actually lose weight, and I'm not losing weight fast either.

Eyes wide shut

Ohhhh hahaha

It shows the skirt in the pic! Maybe it didn't upload all the way! Sorry!

I eat around 1000-1100 a day, I drink a lot of water and zero calorie juices like bai or life water. I also tend to eat small snacks throughout the day (every 2-3 hours) so I'm never usually hungry unless it's before bed, then I'll make tea

Egg whites with low fat cheese or organic high protein oatmeal with Greek yogurt. Theyre both about 230 calories a meal if you measure out the egg whites

But if packaged foods are allowed to be 20% off, then doesn't that go for foods that measure in grams? It's still a label. I lost 60 pounds by calorie counting and not measuring a few years ago so I don't think calorie counting is an issue I was just wondering if I may have hit a wall or something

I'm tracking them properly. I don't eat a wide variety of food. Ex. Greek yogurt 80 calories, tofu packet 300, oatmeal 100 ect. That's why I don't need to measure because there's nothing to measure. Maybe I should start going to the gym

I look at the serving sizes but I don't actually measure and thanks!

I'm 5'6 and 134lbs. I don't weight my food but I always know how many calories I'm eating. I never eat out

Thanks guys! I'm starting law school soon so that'll be my distraction! Tea is a good idea, so is walking since the weather is going to be nice soon
