Just turned 18 and after a good few years of trying my best to limit my calories (although not 100% focusing on that) i figured that it's actually time i start doing it properly, however there are some thing that just don't make any sense in my mind.
I weight 123kg at a height of 167cm and am sedentary most of the time - according to these stats my intake should be around 2600 calories for maintenance
I use a scale to weight every single thing i put into my mouth and after doing all the calculations, I eat a total of 1200-1500 calories every single day (started this a few weeks ago so I let the weight loss take its time) and after that i do about 25-30 minutes of exercise on the treadmill during which i keep my heart rate at 120-130bpm (according to my apple watch that causes me to lose an extra 150 ish calories).
Great, so I consume 1050-1350 calories a day - wow that's over 1000 under my maintenance and probably means i lose quite a bit of weight!
No.
After 6 ish weeks of doing this i still weight 122-123kg. I have absolutely no idea why I am not losing any weight despite being in a caloric deficit and I want to know whether I am doing something wrong or I genuinely have some kind of medical problem and should have it checked out.
My sleep schedule isn't the best and neither is the time at which I eat my meals but i figured that even if that would be a problem it wouldn't be so big that it would affect my intake by that much
Thank you in advance for any help.
