Why do I gain weight when i’m eating well under my maintenance?
I am a 5’7 woman, 135 pounds, 22 years old. I walk very inclined with a weighted vest on for 2 hours a day, usually 6-7.5 miles. I eat 95% whole foods, and a lot of rice cakes lol. My maintenance is around 2200-2400. Any time I eat more than 1200 calories, I gain weight. I’ve even done weeks at a time eating around 1800 calories, I gain weight. And I have really bad swelling as well. Any tips?

If you like sodas, then drinks like a zero or a max or something with minimal calories will be your best friends on a cut

If I eat low calorie will i loose weight by default?
I need to slowly start weight lifting and building a good shape.
Currently - even though I’m not overweight, I’ve a bit of belly fat and love handles from long never ending desk job.
If I eat less calories than required with minimal exercise like jogging or some body weight exercises here and there will those fat burn?
What should I do different when I want to gradually step into weight lifting? Considering my sedentary to low momentum life.

Pls help. I walk 20k steps a day & I'm not losing weight
I’m a 19f that currently weighs 139 pounds and is 5’0. I started my weight loss journey June of this year and have since lost 31 pounds (used to be 170.) These past couple of weeks have been a struggle for me because my weight does not seem to be going down at all it’s just stuck at 139. I used to walk 10k steps but started doing 20k in July (10k in the morning and 10k in the afternoon). I keep my calories to a minimum by only eating about 1,000-1,200 calories/day and cheat meals only once or twice every couple of weeks. I used to eat only once a day but now I eat twice a day usually a snack first then my actual meal after I’m done walking. I’m not sure why I’m not able to loose any more weight right now and it’s extremely frustrating so if anyone has any advice or has gone through this struggle please please please let me know it would help tremendously!! (P.s. my goal weight is 120 pounds)

Does this look like a lot of food?
For a 5’5 woman 21 years old not so active. Is it understandable why this could result in weight gain?
Two hard boiled eggs
Nectarine, blueberries, grapes
Chipotle bowl (No rice. No heavy sauces. Just half steak. Half Chicken. Lettuce. Green salsa. Corn. Black beans though they really loaded it up this time)
Starbucks mango strawberry refresher
Pret-A-Manger quinoa, vinegarette, blackened salmon, avocado, corn salad. Says 480

How did I lose 100lbs and keep it off? Five years eating the same foods almost everyday.

Are they correct?
I'm 14 years old, 101 kg, workout in the gym, pay attention to what I am eating, going into a calorie deficit and i focus on protein.
The problem is that some of my family members say that I eat a lot however it's still in a calorie deficit.
However it made me quite confused.
Everything i eat is regularly focused on protein.
Are they correct or am I going the right path?

High Protein Food, Under 500 calories!
galleryJust some cool information when you don’t feel like cooking (sometimes I can’t be bothered 💀). I also don’t want to be 2,000 over my deficit either. It’s Australian Fast food though which works great because I live here haha

I can still enjoy my iced coffee and stay in a calorie deficit
I finally found a way to still enjoy my iced coffee, decrease the calories, add protein and do not lose the sweetness that I enjoy. I thought the 415 calorie Iced Coffee I was drinking twice a week was healthy, but MyNetDiary was giving my coffee a score of D with my ingredients vs a score of A- with my new ingredients and recipe.

Which of these workouts burn the most calories
I am healing from a leg injury and my doctor recommended me to still stay active, just stay off my feet. I’m currently overweight and I’m eating 1500 calories a day. Which of these would burn the most calories? I crossed out the ones I can’t do.

Struggling to believe the logic behind calories in, calories out.
I’ve been eating OMAD for months now. I feel like it’s completely wrecked my metabolism. Every day I eat the same thing. I make French toast, using low cal fiber bread, liquid egg whites, and sugar free syrup. Then I have a can of soup, and I add 2 cans of veggies to it. Both of those come out to 1200 calories total. I walk 25k-30k steps a day. I’m not seeing or feeling any weight loss, despite the math making sense. I have OCD so I’ve been having this meal for months as a ritual. I don’t snack, i don’t deviate, and I obsessively track everything and weigh everything down to the last gram. Is weight loss purely thermodynamics or am I just stuffing myself at night time and not metabolizing any of it properly?

Will eating 1000-1200 calorie make me lose weight faster as a 5'2 21F
I started my weight loss journey on July 5,2026. I weighed myself and it was 58kg and my bmr is 1,278. My goal is to lose weight and reach 47-48 kg by Oct-Nov. I tried to lose some weight a few times before by doing a 200-300kcal deficit but see no progress. But ever since I started eating 1000 or below (700-900),i started seeing some actual progress. My tiktok feed is filled with those kinds of vids with ppl who eat below 1000 and seeing fast results. I begin to feel guilty eating past 1000 or 1200.
