I expected a bit more of a loss but no worries. I am going to keep up the eating and working out. I am feeling a bit weak and lack of energy in my workouts. I'll need to evaluate to figure out the cause. Enough calories? Enough healthy calories? Too much HIIT? Not enough sleep? Probably all of this:)

Just had a quick look at your food diary, I think you need a lot more calories, you should aim to have a calorie defecit of no more than 500 calories and certainly no more than 800. I know I struggle with this. I would try gradually increasing your calories because you don't want your body to retain it all as fat. I was having similar problems and when I increased my calories mainly through protein I felt loads better and still lost weight. Hope ive helped. :-)

Ps. If you don't get enough protein your body starts to eat your muscles as it is an easy way for it to get energy and also because it uses a lot of calories for your body to maintain muscle so it saves calories by having less muscle. Hope that makes sense. Lol

Thanks for the feedback, pinkmoo! You can add about 600-800 cals to those totals as I have a hard to logging dinner. It is so busy when I get home with the crew that I don't have the time to log my dinner. So I would say I at least eat about 2000 cals really. Especially when I try the heavy weight-training in the mornings.

It is hard keeping the logging going isn't it! You could try adding the food before you eat it when you have some time to do so. I often plan all my meals the night before or in the morning and log it all then. It helps me to know if I'm getting my numbers right and then I don't need to think about what im going to cook and I can get on with my day. Keep up the good work, you're doing great. :-D

That's a great idea! I'll try to plan ahead for dinner and see if that helps.
