i calculated my basal metabolic rate, BMR its called, with the online calculators and formulas they provided, and the approximate number that i got from all the calculations online is around 1300 +/-
That’s rather low… and im trying to lose ALOT of weight. Im not overweight, but i would like to be thinner. I was hoping to lose around 5 to 7kg in the shortest time possible. And the fact that i seldom exercise makes the matter worse. I’ve been able to drop my weight previously, but as soon as i started eating a little bit, i gained back all my weight again.
(SERIOUSLY, IT WAS MAD!!! Last year holidays, i dropped 4kg after dieting for like, eternity, mostly by eating a tub of 48kcal yoghurt for breakfast, lemon juice dressing salads and fruits for lunch and a 90kcal alpen light granolar bar for dinner, and after that, i went back to eating normally and by ‘normally’ i mean eating 3 full meals a day, does not consist of any fried food, sweets, sugary liquids and not much meat, NO milk NO cheese, and reduced my exercise from running 1.2km every alternate day to only cycling once every week, and the devastating fact was that i was gaining 0.5kg everyday.) So all my efforts went down the drain in less than a week. MY GAWD.
so now im trying to diet again, and i am trying to increase my metabolic rate. and the fact that my bmr is low is making me feel helpless. i sleep less than 6 hours a day due to studies and stuff, and therefore have no time to do any form of exercise.
I have to consume less than 1200 kcals aday in order to lose weight at all. i dunno why. or maybe the weight drops too slowly for me to notice any change.
PLEASE HELP! ANY HELP IS APPRECIATED! NO HARSH COMMENTS! IF YOU HATE ME, DEAL WITH IT! I NEED HELP! NO INSULTS FROM YOU PLEASE THANKYOU.
