Hmm…Your story does not compute. You are eating at maintenance, if not a touch below (2000/175 = ~11 cal/lb), and burning at least a 1000 cals/day via exercise. Thus your net intake is <1000 cals/d, but you haven’t lost weight in three weeks? Something’s not right. Possible explanations are:
- You’re consuming significantly more calories than you think (how are you measuring/tracking intake?)
- You’re exercising significantly less than you think (what exactly are you doing every day?)
Other, less likely possibilities include:
3) Your true weight is closer to 100 than 175 pounds (are you actually a small child?)
4) You are not bound by the laws of thermodynamics, and are therefore God (do you have a long white beard and flowing robes?)
My money is on #1 or 2. Care to elaborate on your nutritional monitoring and exercise?
Water gain from the Test can be upwards of 5-7 lbs easily.
Need more info and btw 3 weeks is a little too soon to be griping about progress.
I would actually be surprised if you didn’t gain more weight on that form of Test!
