Hey. Quick background: I have been eating nearly 100% unhealthy (french fries, lasagna, pizza, general junk-food, lots of coca cola, etc.) for over 8 years. Even before 14 I didn't eat healthy, but at that time I atleast every now and than eat somewhat "normal" for my culture (like 3 normal meals (except no vertables) a week). I have actually almost never eaten vegetables in my life and rarely eat fruit. I have also never done a sport of any kind.
Even though I have lived unhealthy my entire life, I don't appear overweight, only a little bit if you would examine me attentively. Because of this I expected to have a fast metabolism. It doesn't appear to be the case however.
5 days ago I switched from "near 100% junkfood, unhealthy" to "quite healthy, deficit". I do intermittent fasting, 1900 calories a day (chicken, beef, sweet potatoes, brocolli, whole grain bread, etc.) (36% Protein, 28% Fat, 35% carbs). I also do the reddit recommended routine, except I haven't actually been able to complete it once due to extreme low energy due to my new diet. I expected, according to my stats and online TDEE calculators, that ~1900 calories would be a deficit that is low enough for some speedy, steady (0.9kg/2 pounds per week) weight loss.
But it isn't doing anything. I feel hungry till 2 PM. I feel weak/weird even during my eating window. I have zero energy mentally and physically. In general I feel pretty shit.
I weighed myself every evening right before bed, to be consistant. I have started weighing myself in the morning. No change basically, it goes a little all over place, just like it did when I eated as unhealthy as I have seen anyone doing.
TLDR;
I ate as unhealthy as I have known anyone to do for my entire life, I just switched to Intermittent Fasting, 1900 calories of healthy foods a day, the Reddit Recommended Routine (3x per week bodyweight training). I have done this for 5 days now, and feel completely shitty during all of it. I don't lose any weight at all. What am I doing wrong?
