sorry i mean a cm! but still after 2 days!

I MUST try this! I have been stuck on a weight loss plateau for about 2 months. I've always wondered if it was my late, night meals which caused this.<br> Tonight I will eat my dinner at 6pm (at this point I am so frustrated I will try anything).

Yeah your body is used to it. Maybe have healthy snacks like an apple or banana which will keep your going faster and you'll probably lose weight. <br>Do you want to lose weight? <br>It sounds like you do exercise, sit around doing uni work and think if you ate every 3/4 hours i'd def put on weight?? (that's what I was like) but you won't if it's small snacks (under 100 calories) just try to up your calorie intake but spreading more snacks like fruit, protein, veg and nuts throughout the day I think you'd lose weight. It's hard at uni because of the money situation, you can't afford to buy loads of fresh healthy foods. <br><br>300 calories is nothing. Do you drink? The thing is after uni when you go out of uni your body will be so unhealthy for only having 300 calories a day. Maybe just add stuff in slowly. <br><br>Good luck sorry this is long! <br><br>xx

@lucyscales I wanted to loose like 2kg but its not really like a big deal for me i just honestly thought i ate way more the days that im at uni i eat like snacks all though the day maybe every hour which is good keeps me full and alert but other days ill have like breakfast then a "big meal" for lunch then like a snack at 5. Im probs gonna have to start doing the thing i do on uni days all the time but even then im only eating 700 calories. who knowsss i just found it really bizare that i can be not hungry on that little calories haha oh well guess my goal is to eat more fruit and veggies! p.s im also a vego so thats another thing that stops me from having many calories

@MonroeChanelS Sounds like you're used to it! Maybe your body only needs that amount, everyones different. WIth me if I don't eat at certain times I feel faint that's why food and the time of food is so important to me. <br>From eating every hour your metabolism is sky high ah ha that's good and the other days are days off it doesnt' matter just as long as most days you are eating regulary. <br>Just see how you feel, calories are not as important as the nutrision of the food, if you are eating good fats, protien, fruit, veg and fibre you are doing it right. If you want to lose 2kg maybe workout another hour a week, spread it out i'm sure you'll lose it soon enough! <br><br>xxx

@lucyscales Also drink water! Best thing for cleansing the body and may help with weight loss. Also green tea! <br>x

@lucyscales thanks for your help ill let you know how it all goes in a weeks time! x

although it sounds counteractive, you may want to try eating more. you are not eating enough calories in the first place to maintain average body functions &amp; the exercise on top of that means that you are dipping much too low. It is quite possible that your body is in something called "starvation mode", which is an evolutionary mechanism that occurs when you are not consuming enough and your bodies metabolism slows to hold on to as much fat stores as possible so that it doesn't starve. Try upping your calories to at least 1200-1500 calories and see if that makes a difference. If not, it is likely that you have plateaued and should continue to eat a few more calories but also try different exercises to see if that makes a difference.. there is a lot of information on the internet about this that could help you.

@JessicaAdriane you're right. If you eat any less than 1000 cals, your body goes into starvation mode and stores everything it can... especially with that amount of excercise on top.

@ What height are you? You seem quite light, maybe you're slim enough and as your body is finding it sooo hard to lose that last amount maybe it's not healthy to? <br>x

Im 169cm I am quite thin its just a goal i have, i am never hungry and i do generally just eat all through the day instead of having big meals i dont think i could eat anymore and i know if i eat more i will put on weight cause i can fluxuate between 57-55. Its just frustrating when you do so much at the gym and have nothing to show for it! also i thought maybe im building too much muscle and cause muscle weighs more then fat? also do different foods maybe make me gain weight cause i know im eating little calories but i eat like croissants and stuff and is that making me store it more then other things i could eat?

@MonroeChanelS It seems like you may be eating a bit but not enough of the right foods. If you're not hungry maybe look at smooties or juices, they'll help you add some extra nutrients. Your BMI is on the healthy side, if you drop any more to 52 you'd be in the unhealthy range! Do you do weights at the gym? Maybe it's muscle mass? I'm not sure, hope some of that helps!

What are your measurements like? as in your waist and stuffcos that might give you a better idea of where the weights gotta go from.

@MonroeChanelS if you dont eat healthy foods you wont loose weight properly. Croissants are just fat!! eat fruit, veg and lean meat, wholemeal bread, pasta and brown rice and you will be able to eat more for the same amount of calories and it will contain less fat!

yup thanks everyone :)
