No matter what I do, I can’t loose weight. I exercise 5 days a week, 10k steps minimum, drink once a week (need it for social reasons) and eat 2 meals a day and 1 snack (around 1200-1400) I’m 5ft8 and weigh 80kg and CANNOT loose weight, holding all my weight in my stosmxh help
So I’ve been struggling with food noise since the beginning of my weight loss journey ,but it has come to being able to bear it.It’s still there,but I just live with it.My real issue is that I only feel okay/being able to ignore food noise when I’m stuffed,like a turkey.I tend to eat until I feel overfull(I still manage to hit my goals),because that is the only way I feel like I’ve eaten.Don’t get me wrong I can eat a normal meal and feel good,but whenever I do that,I get terrible food noise and the urge to eat is too strong to ignore,so I eat what I intended to eat way earlier and feast until stuffed/physically ill. My last meal tends to be at around 4pm,which is fine,but I hate that I cannot control and eat my planned meals.Also when I finish eating I feel bad and full,but eating until satisfied just doesn’t work.Any advice?
Hey everyone,
I keep going in circles with this.
One week I’m tracking everything properly, next week I’m trying to be more active, then I try eating clean, and somehow I still end up feeling like I’m not doing it right or I fall off after a bit.
It’s not even that I don’t know what to do, it’s more like I can’t seem to stick to one thing long enough without overthinking it or burning out.
I’ve been reading a lot of other people’s experiences lately and it’s interesting how different everyone’s approach is. Some keep it super basic, some rely on structured programs like WeightWatchers or Noom, and some mention telehealth setups like CoreAgeRx or medically guided options like Zepbound support programs just to have more accountability instead of doing everything alone.
But even then, it feels like most people only really figure it out after a lot of trial and error anyway.
I'm just wondering, what actually made it click for you , if anything did?

Am I the only one struggling with this?

Hi friends- I’m desperately seeking advice and/or any recommended coping mechanisms/behavioral changes.
I eat clean throughout the day, usually tracking cals and macros and staying on top of my game nutrition wise (aiming for a deficit). I am pretty good about getting daily movement in too, whether it’s cardio or strength training. However, it seems like every single night I find myself overeating and not tracking it out of avoidance/shame/denial. I tell myself I’ll be better tomorrow and will actually close the kitchen after dinner and occupy myself in a different way, but it never EVER happens and I repeat the cycle every night. It’s usually with sweeter foods. It is making it impossible to lose the weight when I am going over maintenance calories every single day, in a significant surplus. I think this is a deeply ingrained habit of mine at this point that I am finding astronomically difficult to break. Any advice is appreciated. Thank you so much in advance… I feel so alone in this despite knowing it’s not uncommon.
If you are starting your calorie deficit you’re gonna feel hungry a coupe hours after you ate your meal. That’s normal your body will eventually get used to it and you won’t feel hungry anymore. You can eat healthy snacks in between your meals but you’re likely going to be hungry through the day. And that is normal
I’ve been reading about the physical changes many people notice after 30/35 and I’m curious to understand the real experiences behind it A lot of people report changes in energy weight and overall body response even without major lifestyle changes
I'm a woman, I'm 20 years old (163cm, 68kg). Since January I've been seeing a dietitian, but my weight is dropping incredibly slowly. Last year I decided to get blood tests done to check if there was a problem there. It turned out I have reactive hypoglycemia (fasting blood sugar 70, and after the glucose test 50) and problems with estradiol (on day 4 of my cycle it's <5, meaning below the detection threshold). I already had problems with estradiol a year ago as a result of my poor habits, I tried to rebuild it naturally following my gynecologist's guidance, but apparently, aside from my periods returning fairly regularly, it didn't do much. I've been prescribed Estrofem and Duphaston. I've also been advised to follow a low GI diet.
However, I'm struggling with weight loss. Over the course of a month doing strength training 5x a week, half an hour of cardio 5x a week, 13k steps a day, and a -700 kcal deficit. I lost nothing. I know these aren't measurement errors on my part
- I weigh every slice of cucumber and only eat things I'll be able to count precisely.
The doctors have told me to stop doing cardio, but all the strength training, steps, and once-a-week swimming remain. I'm still staying within the deficit calculated by my dietitian -500 to -700 kcal, so around 1,800 kcal.
Can taking the medication help me lose weight? Apparently estradiol is a big blocker, does anyone have experience with their weight finally starting to move after starting medication? Will managing insulin spikes and blood sugar drops through diet and meal spacing also be able to help me in some way? I've been told not to stress, but the fact that despite all my efforts I remain chubby is really stressing me out.
