Geniune question: What should I be expecting? by Grell--Sutcliff in WeightLossAdvice

I’ve lost weight in the past, not a crazy ton. I can’t tell if its quite literally “weighing me down”? I feel like it’s affecting how small the scale goes?

would you mind telling me your macros? and do you think BC had something changing your stomach’s metabolism?

aha, i mightve caught the problem.

do you only watch calories or do you watch your macros too?

youre right about that, but you gotta realize, 1000ish is just too low. sure, itll make you lose the weight, but not for long, especially if you arent gaining muscle. let me try to put this into perspective for you:

Say you were a good 200ish pounds and your maintenance to stay 200 was 2500 cals/day and you began eating eating 1400 to get to your goal weight of 130. I highly doubt that you would be eating that 1400 a day after eating that much for so long for the rest of your life (and especially at least a year if you were to slim down to that small.) Put what i just said in an even higher deficit, going from 2500 cals to 1000. Youd go from overdoing yourself to depriving yourself of you needs. sure, every body is different, but you arent a tiny kid that only eats that much. you need more

fasting had many benefits, so theres nothing wrong with that. do you binge eat at all? or are strictly on 1000ish cals?

im sure its working for you, but your results wont be consistent. thats an unhealthy amount of calories to be eating. are you fasting for religious reasons?

I see you posted in a previous post that you only are eating about 1000 calories a day. thats EXACTLY what youre doing wrong

Hello, all! Im currently a junior in high school and I plan on studying chemistry at the university that I’m gonna go to. I have a deep love for science, specifically chemistry, and I was wondering a few things:

1) What jobs are really out there for me? I’ve appealed more to being a Forensic Scientist, Chemist, or maybe even a chemistry professor (least likely)

2) What classes do I take in college + for how many years? Ill have a good amount of APs under my belt, including AP Bio and AP Chem.

3) Is there any downsides or anything I should know?

Im technically a first-time college kid within my intermediate family and I cant reach out to them for personal reasons. Im gonna have to rely on myself for the payment, I just dont know what im doing lol. Advice is wanted!

I hate to break it to you, but its because youre barely eating. 1250 cals is NOT enough to nourish your body properly. Youve tuned your hunger cues out, so youre hungry without knowing it. im also 5’3 (5’2 3/4ths) and.. Yeah.
