Please stop spreading weight loss woo

Starvation mode isn't real, if you're not losing weight after 6 weeks you're not in a calorie deficit.

Muscle doesn't weigh more than fat, it's simply more dense and therefore takes up less space than fat does. If you've started a new weight training or strength training program you might be retaining water but if you've only been lifting for 5 days you have not gained 5 lbs of muscle. Muscle building takes time and dedication. No one accidentally Arnold's. Even Arnold Schwarzenegger would tell you he put in a fuck ton of hard work, and possibly some enhancers, to look the way he did.

Cheat days only work if they don't turn into binges, if you feel like this wouldn't be beneficial for your weight loss, don't do it.

Your TDEE can go up or down based on activity and weight. If you lose weight it goes down, if you move less, it goes down. No foods speeds up your metabolism. This is literal horseshit.

Please take advice you're given here with a grain of salt and do your own research to be certain you're being given correct information.
