I'd rather do this alone then have to read borderline rude comments bc I worded something poorly

You people are sarcastic. FYI yes I was at a casino and had salmon and arugula. Day two I attempted to have a burger and had two bites and couldn't eat it but gave myself a 300 calorie count for the two bites. Just saying I faithfully logged even though I wasn't home.

Eating out? I don't do that.

I'm very disciplined. Basically I have a protein shake for breakfast. 11 oz approx 160 cal. If not a shake then eagbeaters and spinach. Lunch is raw spinach, tomatoes, green pepper, and chicken or eggs for protien. I basically have same for dinner. Snacks are nuts or beef jerky. I normally land under 1000. I've been power…

When my diary was public I got bashed for eating under 1000 calories or accused of not being truthful. I am not only making a permanent lifestyle change but am trying to lose as much as possible for my wedding. I'll raise my calories after the wedding.

I'm at a loss as to why I'm not losing weight. I've used the flow chart and am going to a doctor Wednesday.

So today I've had 41 fat grams. Came from protein shake,salmon,boiled egg,2 tbsp of cheese,and Caesar dressing. Is that too much fat. Heart disease runs in my family so I'm just concerned.

I have high blood pressure and I'm insulin resistant. I think I'm eating more than logged. I mean, I log what I eat but I didn't have a food scale until today so I think it's off. So far I haven't lost any weight in the last 2 weeks but I've lost 4 inches.

Total wedge here. I've yoyo'd from 125 to my max of 205 a couple of times. Currently 185 and still very wedgy. I'm getting married in July and unfortunately I'll still be looking like an upside down triangle at my wedding. When I was thin, I still had broad shoulders, but I kinda dug it. Made me feel statuesque. I'll never…

I'm 5'5 and currently 187. I'm on a pretty low calorie diet. Some days 1200-1400. Some days I only get in 1000 calories which I know is too low. I was totally sedintary until a few weeks ago. Now I'm walking(fast pace,or as fast as I can without croaking) for 50-70 minutes per day. I'm not losing pounds. My loss plateaued…

Just thought to measure myself. I haven't lost weight, but I've lost 2 inches in my bust and 2 in my waist.

I just measured myself. No weight loss but I've lost 2 inches in the bust and 2 inches in the waist!

I'm 187

I'll admit I'm no speed demon, but I've been sedintary for 2 years and I'm walking as fast as I can without totally winding myself. It took me 55 minutes to walk 3.4 miles. Is this why so few calories are burned?

Seems an hour of brisk walking to the point of breaking a sweat and being slightly out of breath would burn more than 160 calories

TDEE IS 1700

One person says one thing. An article I'll read says the opposite. I'm confused and getting frustrated. I'm eating way less and moving way more than my past sedintary and junk food lifestyle. Seems like it should be working.

Yeah but when I was eating 1000 everyone said to increase. I was snacking on nuts but cut that out bc of the high calories.

I weigh 187 as of this morning, I'm 5'5. That's why I increased calories. Still no loss. I'm 43.

I am having trouble losing also. I thought maybe I was cutting too many calories(1000),so for a few days I added 200 to 400 calories. I continued my cardio. Gained 2 pounds. The calories I added were sugar and carb free. Mostly protien and veggies.

Thanks for advice and encouragement.

I'm not lying to myself or anyone about my food intake. I'm 50 pounds overweight. I recently was diagnosed with high blood pressure. I'm also getting married in July. I am purposely restricting calories in hopes of losing some before wedding. I'm sure after wedding I'll up my calorie intake. But I'm pre diabetic and now…

I am only having 2 of these 160 calorie shakes, 1 piece of grilled chicken, 2 cups of raw spinach, and about a cup of strawberries. I try to keep it as low as possible. I occasionally snack on almonds. And as much lemon water as I can drink. That's been my daily intake of food for a couple weeks now.

* losing, sorry

I'm not actually gonna eat velveeta. That's actually a quote from the golden girls. I'm just saying I'm discouraged. I count every calorie. My protein shakes are only 180 calories each. 1 gram sugar. My chicken weighs in at 100-120 calories. I eat 2 cups spinach at 44 calories. My strawberries are less than 50 calories per…
