Why am I not losing weight?

[Anonymous]

I've completely changed my diet for one month now and incorporated light weights and long walks

I've cut out sugar and eat more protein and fruits and vegetables

My belly still looks the same and is a large pouch so its not muscle

You CANNOT survive on 1000 calories a day. It's dangerous. You need at least 1500. Calories aren't the issue as long as you eat healthy, lean protein, fruits and vegetables (no starch, greens, carrots) and plenty like 8 glasses of water a day.

I'm eating proteins fruit and veg and sweet potatoes i wanted to do this short term. Intermittent fasting then one I lose about 4-5 pounds i will go increase to 1400

[mark000h]

You have to increase to 1500 and cut out starchy things like potatoes. Eat more chicken, fish and leafy greens, fruits and 8 cups of water.

Have you ever gotten your hormones tested? I was the same I could not lose weight at all. Tried every single diet you could think of as well as getting a personal trainer and nothing worked. I eventually went to the doctors and did some testing and they found out I had PCOS (Polycystic Ovaries). Once I got my hormones regulated the weight started dropping off with moderate exercise and a strict diet. It’s very common in women.

You don't gain fat nor loose it in a short period. You should eat 200 to 400 cal below your daily need (BMR x activity level). If you go lower, your body will go into starvation mode and nothing will happen. Loosing fat is one thing that will make you more slim. Getting muscles is exercising. Getting visible muscle is the combination of both.

You're thinking too much. People always do this. The key to losing weight is to stop looking for shortcuts and perfect paths. Get out there and hustle. Forget the calories to some degree. Get out there and move.

Instead of dieting & working out there is a simple trick & all you have to do is the following. If You Want To Look Skinny Hangout With Fat People.

To short of a time period. Specially if you are also lifting weights. Means that your muscles are becoming heavier. And muscle weights more than fat.

My belly still is the same flabby same size

[This_Is_My_Opinion8]

It's not over a month that you see results. Don't expect to see anything in less than half a year.

How are you tracking weight loss by sight?

[Asker]

Scales

[Asker]

Still the same and look the same

[boggboss]

So your weight hasn't moved at all?

[Asker]

Nope

[boggboss]

Buy new scales as I'm pretty confidant in saying that's impossible even if u wasn't doing anything your weight day to day changes slightly

How long has it been since you started doing it?

[Asker]

4 weeks now

You should wait a little longer for this

[Wise4myage]

Give it more time.

[Asker]

A year? Lose 2 pounds in one year?

[Wise4myage]

Then take a closer look at your diet because something is wrong.

How about GYM?
