what kind of doctors have you been talking to? Hopefully not just a GP. It sounds like a nerve issue and for those kind of things. It’s good to work with a neurosurgeon. You may need to get an MRI, working through these things with PT may not be the best route, in fact without proper diagnosis PT can exacerbate the…

You need to stick program for 4 to 6 weeks to see what the outcome actually is. One week is not enough time to figure anything out water shifting around that hasn’t really been lost yet, very little fat will be lost in a week, give it some time
-
incorrect.
-
without knowing all of your details, it’s impossible to give you any real advice. You could be hugely overweight, and the app is telling you to eat 4000 cal or something. We just don’t know so until you can give some actual statistics and information it’s all just guessing what to tell you to do.
-
that’s pretty low. What are your stats? What is your height weight. Losing fat and gaining muscle especially with low calories very difficult. In fact, losing fat and gaining muscle at the same time at any time is difficult if not impossible. There are factors that need to be in place which isn’t always possible. Get away…

if you’re not hungry and you’re getting your protein and proper nutrition then don’t worry about it if you can get by with a few less calories by getting in the proper nutrition then that’s totally fine. Calorie counting is never going to be absolutely perfect so there’s a potential that your calories may be a bit…

Eating healthy and exercising is no guarantee you’re going to lose weight. It comes down to calorie balance. Every week if you’re taking more calories than you’re burning, you’re not going to lose weight and you may even gain. You need to wait 4 to 6 weeks at a certain calorie amount to judge if your actually in a calorie…

You need to decrease not increase calories especially when you’ve lost that much weight. Your body is a lot lighter and needs a lot fewer calories, if your weight stopped all of a sudden you may be retaining water if it was more of a gradual loss then that signals that you’ve reached your maintenance calories
-
you’re hauling around 35 less pounds so you don’t need as many calories so you may want to think about lowering those a bit to continue losing weight
-
No loss = No weekly/monthly calorie deficit. 1500 to 2000 cal is a really big gap. You need to be more precise on what you’re eating and drinking. Calculate what you’ve been taking in and lower that. Your initial loss after dropping calories is usually water so that was expected stick with a more exact amount for 4 to 6…

Two weeks isn’t enough time. Also don’t figure your macros in percentages, figure in grams. Fasting and a lot of water does nothing for fat loss. weekly calories will determine what happens with your weight so give it a couple more weeks and if no loss you’re gonna need to lower your calories.
-
Fasting of any kind will not directly cause fatloss. You want to look at your overall weekly calories. Take seven days worth of calories and divide by seven and that is your average calorie amount which is the magic number to look at. If intermittent fasting or things like that Help you lower weekly calories then it works…

Unless you're diabetic i wouldn't worry about it.

You can’t spot reduce your waist or anywhere else on your body. Your body is going to lose fat where it’s genetically programmed to do so in whatever order it decides whether it be waist, hips, legs, butt or whatever else. You’ll need to do some research on calorie deficits and follow those rules and then the fat will…
-
that looks ok. If you’re eating quite a bit more than that right now you may want to go down to 1500 cal over the course of a few weeks because dropping calories too fast can make things hard to stick to
-
yes 500 is always a good number to shoot for just in case you’re off a little bit on your accounting on the negative side just keep an eye on your fat gain around your waist if that starts growing too much you just cut your calories back a little bit but the only way muscle goes on is if food goes in the mouth. The right…
-
when you’re cutting you need quite a bit of protein and low calories so that can be difficult combo as a vegetarian. Especially for a man because they carry more muscle that needs to be maintained. Just do your homework on foods that have high protein and low calories
-
at your weight and height I would be a little more aggressive with a deficit than 250 a day. You have enough fat on you and it will be able to make up for a lot of the energy that you’re going to need. I wouldn’t really try to be adding any muscle right now, but you should be lifting weights because that will keep the…
-
You need to add muscle you want to eat slightly over your maintenance calories and get on a good beginners lifting program that specializes in compound movements. you are not a candidate for fat loss right now. When you add some muscle you may be a little bit more in line to do that when you add muscle in a calorie…
-
Small women such as yourself shouldn’t really have a 500 cal a day deficit I would shoot for more like 250. You just don’t have a lot of body weight to work with. You didn’t specify what your weight was so that would be a big factor.
-
There is also water and food, cucumbers, watermelon, etc. that’s why trying to track Water is really kind of a waste of time.

90-100 Lbs. doubtful you need to lose fat

Use your “around” 1,400 number as this number is already supplying you with actual data. Tighten up that number by getting more accurate with your counting every day so that you’re establishing a weekly amount. You’ll most likely find that you’re taking any more calories than you think. Plan on maybe lowering those a…
-
After a month of being on a plateau, you’re eating at maintenance calories every week. Week is the operative word people as can say they're taking in that amount of calories every day but is that every day or is that cherry picked a day or two a week when they’re actually eating that low? you need to figure calories Weekly…

A week is not long enough and your friend did not lose 30 lbs in a month

Is that under 1200 cal every single day consistently For six weeks or is that cherry picking a few days here and there where the calories are that low. you want to count seven days worth of calories and divide by seven that is your actual daily amount. If in fact, you actually were on 1200 consistently and you stop losing…

How long have you been at 1850? if it’s been less than a month you need to give it a little more time. If still no loss then your weekly calories are not allowing you to lose fat.
-
Some people have great luck with it. The bottom line with any diet is you need to take in fewer calories every week consistently than you burn if you want to lose fat, the carnivore diet is no different. It really comes down to eating in a way that you can stick to permanently. I know friends that love carnivore.
