  • If your eating very little calories and not losing weight it means that your eating too low sometimes our body holds onto fat longer bc it’s starving it might come off eventually. Also keep in mind that, it takes a few weeks to see weight loss sometimes so I don’t know how long you been in a deficit. I would try also…
  • I know this might give the opposite effect but.. I been doing intermittent fasting I took some time off but I still didn’t take me that long to get back into it.. actually it was easier the second time but actually it helped me sooo much I used to binge and be an emotional eater but I started eating like 2 meals a day and…

  • yeah i wouldnt be eating your exercise calories cause then your gonna eat too much. but yeah just be really patient, liek everyone else said, just wait a little longer, stay consistent.
  • yeah like for me, im a small person lol only 5'2 and sometimes like i barely get all my water.. but my pee is really pale yellow... and i dont think it makes much difference drinking more.. but its good for you.. you should drink more water because feels good.. but its up to you.. just check your pee that should be good…
  • Try to focus on the plan. try to make a deadline date for your goal... chances are when you get to that date.. you wont wanna cheat anymore or satotage your diet. lol i do this alot too when im "maintaining" I get those groggy tired days and i just wanna watch movies and eat.. but try to keep your goal in mind. or try to…
  • yeah like I don't like exercise either lol. But once i get into a routine i feel so much better. and then hence i can eat better even food gets to be exciting like what im cooking for meal prep cause in general i hate cooking too . lol. you just need to think of it as like something you have to do.. if you really wanna do…
  • Yes i did OMAD for a week and lost 5 lbs... but honestly its very hard for me i prefer to eat 2 meals a day... when i do 16/8 or whatever i havent seen "crazy" results.. the best results was from OMAD but its so hard for me to eat like once a day... I get SO hungry lol.
  • I have intentionally done carb cycling yes it works , it works quickly. But it was just too much work having to monitor that i prefer having carbs moderately like everyday. But I often do this unintenitonally as well.. as long as im on a WEEKLY deficit... i take the average of 7 days and thats my deficit... now if im like…
  • I'm 5'2.5 and ugh back at 160, not sure actually i was 158 last week but maybe water weight who knows. But yeah i was nearly 165 almost again. I would love some accountability. Am i the only one who loses weight like SUPER slow? Like i workout 5-6 days for 30 mins, takes 2 weeks it see any changes to only lose 1 lb. and i…
  • do not do 1200 that is extremely unhealthy. you will lose weight super fast but its very hard and you will prob give up bc its not enough food...you will still lose weight , just track your food for a week to see how much you currently eat, and then the next week, cut like 10% calories from there...

  • yeah i agree with everyone else. I feel like also you just said that like the gym just opened up so you started running again, so it might be too much for your body to keep up with you. you should start with 10-15 mins and then do 30 ... but are you working out at home AND working out at the gym too... especially when it…
  • you ate 1200 for 2 years? and now your at your goal weight? my gosh that is a long time. hooefully i can get there.. but yeah i guess its a long journey. I just feel like this is never ending LOL. but you know what sometimes i love this journey other times i hate it... I been really bored and i tend to get bored of food...…

I know im not fat, but ugh i hate it. and im short right, im 5'2 so i feel every time im a bit bloated it sucks, i was thinking to do…
  • oh yes i have checked from my doctor, I have many deficiencies, vitamin D, and B12 recently, but when i was 17 my doctor first checked and I had anemia which runs in my family a bit. yes i didnt track much, the chicken shawarma was bc I used myfitnesspal for mostly recipes and like dining out. I was previously using Loseit…
  • no you will not lose muscle, most people dont even need that much muscle, it's actually 0.8-1g protein x lean body mass. To find lean body mass you subtract your bodyfat from your weight, 100g should be enough and if its not, it all balances at the end of the week just try your best. Also I was studying nutrition for some…
  • I just started in Sept this time i wanted to make it count. I didnt wanna do something that was too hard. So i did these steps.. it might help you, this is just what i did you can try if you want. 1) I did start out eating really low, first 2 weeks it was really hard (side effects - headaches, cant sleep, sugar cravings)…
  • hey im 5'2 and im at 155 lbs i wanna lose around 30 lbs

  • if WW works then you should stick with that. honestly ive tried so many things.... except keto bc i just feel like too much fat isnt like great for health imo. I am restarting my weight loss journey. I think, like what im doing is ... like now i have some understanding of calories in vs calories out right. so what worked…
  • i would say ditch the cardio...you dont need to lose any more weight... you need to lose "fat" which is totally different.. and continue eating clean.. abs are made in the kitchen... but to lose fat you need to increase muscle , and you need to increase protein
  • I wanna lose weight too I keep going back and forth I don’t know what to do
  • Thanks for being so nice :) I know it’s silly force it , but some people my family don’t understand they just tell me that everyone has pain and some people have to go to work with pain etc you know ? Makes me feel bad . Like I don’t have energy or motivation to do something? As for the injury it has been a long time…
