i need support and motivation.. I been gaining back what I've lost and more and now, i'm terribly upset..help..

i been trying to eat lower than 1500 kcals a day without once a week "unconscious" eating till I reached 300kcals..I eat at least 2 cans of baked beans a day and the max i ever had is 5 canned a day..

I know sodium cause water retention but if i lost weight while eating lots of sodium,then when i cut it down, would i lost more weight?

oh ya, and i din exercise much other than the occasionally jumping around..so i think i'm sedentary.. Is 1500kcal good for losing weight? I'm 16 by months, 17 by years

'nyone?

Well 1500 isn't a bad amount, and it's enough to lose weight. But is beans all you eat? I don't think that's very good for you if that's all you have. Beans aren't your only source of protein, you should try fitting in chicken, beef, tofu, eggs, etc.

Don't worry, I used to be 130 and I wanted to lose weight then, and I've gained 15 pounds since then, so I need to lose weight too. There are people here for you, so you came to the right place. Sodium is not a good thing for you, I mean it's good in moderation, but you shouldn't be having a lot of it. I'm not sure if you'd lose weight while intaking a ton of sodium, but I know that if you eat the right amount of food, and exercise, then you'll lose the weight. Exercise is a complete must alongside a good diet. So why don't you try walking, jogging or finding something fun to do. Look at the weather, it's great outside, perfect time to go outside and run around a bit.

well,i'm a pescetarian so i dont take meat except seafood..I took eggs a few times a week when i make cabbage tom yam soup and I walked a lot (lesser now than before cause of haze) ..This year is the year of an important exam so if i got time to exercise, i would spend it on resting..well, i don know..but thanks for the support..
