I can't seem to lose any more weight

Post Reply New Topic

I lost 7 pounds eating 1250-1300 calories per day. I'm 18. I am trying to lose a few more pounds, but I am not gaining nor losing weight. My weight fluctuates like crazy. One day the scale shows my "real" weight, and the next day it appears I gained 1-2 lbs. My weight fluctuates between 1 to 2 lbs more than my actual weight and I appear to be bloated all the time. Yet I have noticed that I'm losing inches off my waist, and the scale doesn't seem to show that. My current caloric deficit makes tired and I don't have energy. How do I lose weight effectively?

Artificial sweetners such as aspartemine can cause ones body to absorb water as a reaction to them being taken. My Mum went for 7 weeks without eating and only drinking diet lemonade and actually put on weight due to this. These days she can't touch artificial sweetners and I have to keep off them as well. The bodys natural reaction to store water weight is a well known allergic reaction to sweetners as most artificial sweetners are a mildly toxic. It is the bodies way to try to rid its cells from the toxins it has absorbed.

I've never counted calories.

The fastest way I lose weight is by cutting all drinks except water.
No tea, coffee, juice, soda, alcohol, or anything, for a month or two.
I don't drink a lot of those but somehow without them I lose a ton of weight.

The other thing that works for me is Keto, but it's harder to do.

The other thing is mild exercise such as cycling.

Cheap digital scales can be imprecise. I too have a daily fluctuation of 1-3lbs.
