this right here is all you need to understand, OP. This. Get a food scale, accurately log your intake, and then adjust slowly and accordingly.

I'll try again. Are you weighing your food and logging everything?

if you've been at it a few months and haven't seen any loss, you're eating more than you think you are. Are you accurately weighing your food? are you using a food scale? are you legitimately logging EVERYTHING? Sushi isn't going to make you gain three pounds. It's water weight. Don't hate on sushi.

it's water weight. just roll on and don't stress about it.
-
this is exactly what it is.

is there any particular reason you're jumping head first into keto instead of just a modest deficit?

... and even if it's free, it's still absolutely unnecessary. There are no "toxins" or some buildup of poop in your body that this is magically going to flush away. You'll poop a lot, because it's a liquid diet. You'll lose water weight. You'll probably be on the verge of your body starting to consume muscle to compensate.…

So, it's a terrible and pointless idea. There is absolutely zero need to do any kind of shake cleanse. He's been given poor advice and fallen for it. Want to eat healthier and lose weight? Then just log your food, eat at a modest calorie deficit, and you will. The reason you get the responses, is because these forums have…

For the sake of accuracy (and an example) many of my recipes that I've been using for years use milk/almond milk/soy milk or whatever in fl. oz. measurements. I know the cup equivalency, but habit is habit. For what it's worth, my digital ozeri scale measures fl. oz. If it's an option for logging, it's just more effective.…

food scale or nothing. You're eating more than you think. Weigh liquids (fl oz of milk) instead of using cup measures, and all solids. The more accurate your logging, the easier it will be to adjust accordingly.

50lbs in 10 weeks is really not sustainable at all and you're going to get push-back around here for a good reason. So, you're already looking at making even a larger deficit? You're trying to brag about a 2000 calorie deficit? What... daily?
-
right? sounds almost too good to be true!?!?!
-
then we need more info. what is your starting weight? how much are you trying to lose? are there any medical issues? how long have you been doing this? Have you been 100% strict? are you eating back calories from exercise? estimating calories burned? If you were to open your diary, it might actually help us give you better…

this is the important question.

are you using a food scale? if not, you're probably eating more than you think, or burning less calories than you think. MFP is a tool. You can use a wrench to drive a nail, that doesn't make it a hammer. Learn the tool, use it correctly, win.

I have a Rogue R3 rack, an adjustable bench, a few hundred pounds of plates, and a concept 2 rower. Overall, less money than a gym membership and I don't have to wait for some jagoff doing curls in the squat rack anymore.
