If you aren't losing, which you aren't, it's because your body is holding on to everything it gets. I was recently homeless, couldn't cook anything and my body would feel full after a small sandwich every other day. It was definitely not enough for my body. I had to force myself to eat once I got into a situation where I could actually eat. You need to eat more before your body will understand that it will get food when it needs it. |

Assuming that your estimates are correct, though, try adding some fat. Put a tablespoon of olive oil on your vegetables. Or, if you are eating low-fat cheese, switch to full fat. Or, have a (measured!) portion of nuts for your afternoon snack. Dietary fat is not your enemy, especially if you are only eating 1000 calories a day. Finally, remember that there is a long time constant before you'll see the effects of any change. Changing your eating for a day or even a week doesn't tell you anything about how your body responds. You have to incorporate changes slowly and observe your body's responses - your hunger, energy, and weight - over the course of at least several weeks to know whether something works for you. |
