@peaceprevails26 Women in general NEED more fat than men. As long as you have a healthy lifestyle, and your bloodwork show that its good. There is no need to lose weight.

@vireak Slow progress is frustrating. Hopefully you can start being able to predict how your body tends to do things. You should start seeing patterns and take notes of patterns of what could cause the gain. So you actually know when you're plateauing. At least for me, I generally know if the...

@vireak its tough cause fluctuations are normal. You can try to up your calories to maintenance for a week and then go back to a deficit to see if it makes a difference (if it does make a difference, it should show in about another week). You gotta make sure you're actually calculating your...

@vireak Yep focus on your workout. How long have you been stalled? Its normal for someone of your height and weight to lose 1lb every 2 to 3 months.

@armour_101 Who is "everyone"? Do they realize that petite people exist, or just people their own size?

@fadeaway This isn't a weight loss specific journey though. This is a healthy lifestyle change. Of course all at once the change feels overwhelming, especially with media. But one step at a time, its a route to a healthier living. I've honestly started enjoying it a lot. It meant exploring so...

@joyfullyobey Lettuce, apple, and almost any veggie has barely any calories. You can eat it every hour. You will get hungrier faster, so have them as snacks. Check any high calorie part that you eat that has a lot of fat and sugar. Limit those and replace it with protein or low calorie...

@66bookssss If you want a new therapist that would say things you want them to say. Get a new therapist. If you don't think you have body image issues then you don't need to discuss that with a therapist.

@myfavoritepa Fat has more than twice as many calories per gram as carbohydrates and proteins. If fat makes you fat, its because of the calories in it. I volume eat, so less fat works for me.

@66bookssss She's you THERAPIST. not your dietician. Accepting yourself beautiful in any size isn't the same as "don't lose weight".

@kaylarose3 lol I couldnt use a 5lb dumbell for years. Now I'm using 4kg max, probably for the next 2 years. Not sure where you got the idea that 11kg is the lowest possible out there.

@regadoo Yeah you're quite low in weight already. Almost at the normal BMI as well. So without intense activity, it will really be slow. Maybe 2 lbs a month is doable, if you add more activity and strength train. Do you think that it would be sustainable for you to maintain at 110? Because I...

@judenshabbot The moment you start lifting weight. Throw BMI out the window. It is no longer a representation of health. As long as you're not in the obese range, you are healthy, and you know you've gained muscles. Then you are healthy.

@lpt My scale has not moved for months. I'm attributing it to muscle gains. So it might be a good idea to adjust your scale expectations. Expect it to take longer, or you might gain weight due to muscle gains. Don't overdo it. Your body needs rest. your clothes are fitting better, the scale...
