Hi all,
Sorry for another one of these threads but I could use some advice!
I've been doing LCHF for three weeks in combination with IF (usually at least 16:8), and I am not seeing any results. I currently eat between 1000-1200 calories a day, with under 20g carbs, between 50g-80g fat and 60g protein (these values were recommended by an online ketogenic diet calculator). I don't get a lot of exercise as I work from home at my computer, but I usually average a small half hour walk each day.
Basically, I don't know what I'm doing wrong here. Are my macros off? Am I expecting too much so soon? Am I just doing too many things?
I desperately need to lose weight to improve my HbA1c and sugars, so it's getting me down that I've not seen any results whatsoever after nearly a month.
Thanks for your input
Edit for clarity: It is my weight loss that I am not seeing results with. I am managing to keep my sugars at an okay level through low carb.
