I never eat the fake meat, pretty much never snack, I exercise daily for 40 min, 2 to 3 mile walk too each day. Total calories per day never go beyond 1500 anyway. But nothing is budging.


What do you do for exercise?


Weights and 2 to 3 mile walks per day.


You need to ramp up your exercise. While walking is great for health it’s really not exercise.
.

It burns calories though in a non-stressful way for the body. Ramping up steps is a better idea than doing HIIT for instance when in a caloric deficit. 2-3 miles is very little though. I would target double that. And lift weights at least 3 times a week.

It sounds like your metabolism is shot. Maybe add weight lifting to increase your calorie burn?

DP. My guess is you’re eating way more than you think you are. Get a scale, measure and count every calorie, don’t fudge the numbers.


Nope. Use My Fitness Pal. Every crumb is logged.

Vegetarian here. When I focus on fiber, I naturally lose weight. I aim for 35-50g.

I know my weight sounds high but I am on a beta blocker for a heart condition as well as hypothyroid. This has been my weight for 15 years. I just want to lose 10. I don't snack, 1300 is pretty easy for me actually, don't even eat that much. I exercise every day.

Go fully plant based for a month (M-F plant based / Weekend Vegetarian)
You will shake things up and drop some pounds.

But it really depends on where you are starting from for how much you are going to lose.

What should my macros be? Struggling in figuring out right ratio.
