I'm seeing no changes, I am hitting all my nutrient goals, yet I feel less and less motivated to work out what's going on.

General energy boost
I have been recording and using my app accurately for the last 7 days and have hit my calorie target most of the time. Enjoying the food and not missing too much. I have cut out most of the carbs, not all. But as the week has gone on I have felt lifeless and have no real energy. I am 63 and working from home so fairly…

Just realised I am not doing this weight loss thing for myself as I would happily sit and watch TV in the evenings after work, but as soon as I book a weekend away with some friends I want to do it for my appearance. OH doesn't give two hoots…

Please can someone explain to me
This is my daily allowance and I have tried so many times to stick to this. But to be truthful I dont understand. If you have 1260 calories for the day that I can understand, but what actually is the Carb/Fat/Protein figures. Are they out of your 1260 calories or are they a weight measurement. Sorry about this, maybe…
