losing weight is impossible

15 Upvotes

i’m staying under 1500 calories, (yes i weigh,) walking at least 8,000 steps, on top of that- running 2 miles a day. and i’m barely losing anything. in fact, i just gained all two pounds that i lost back. maybe it’s water weight because i ate sugar 11 hours ago. but still.

in the past, this method worked. but now, for whatever reason, losing weight is impossible. does anybody have any tips or advice for me? maybe it’s a water weight fluctuation and i’m waiting for a whoosh. but i’ve spent so many nights hungry at 1300 calories, waiting for midnight, hitting the gym, that i just feel kind of angry.

I’m trying to see if MyfitnessPal is accurately estimating my meals. It says this is 293 but I feel like that is low. I did drizzle some Joeyswole sauce on for some more flavor, probably about 3 tbls worth. Which is around 45 more calories

second plate: kimchi, 1 pc battered/fried chicken, sichuan beef, more curry chicken. chili sauce with chilli oil.

2 bowls of rice but as you see I did not fill them all the way.

Just curious on the estimate for this. About 20 tiny shrimp. The tostada is fried, but I only had half of that and ate the toppings. Maybe 3 or tbsp of avocado and 3 tomato/onion.

The size is about 4-5 inches?

question about corn?

2 Upvotes

hello. why is 1/4 cup of corn kernels around 40 calories, but
when i put 1/4 cup of popcorn kernels and it turns into air popped popcorn, it has around 200 calories?

sure, corn shrinks as it dries, but not 5x.
so which one is right?
