Why am i not loosing weight??!


Question: Why am i not loosing weight!?!?
i'm 5' 3" a female and am 17 years old and am 124 lbs!. and i eat about 600 to 900 calories a day, pretty much every day for the majority of my life!. i am also pretty sedentary when it comes to activity but i mean every now and then ill get all hyped up and work out for around an hour to two for a week or two everyday lol(but then i just quit haha) but i also you kno go places and hang out with friends at the mall and such!. not quite exercise but activity none the less!.

but looking at how many calories a person burns a day and such i was wondering why i am 124 lbs!. and not less!. i have no muscle wat so ever so any extra weight is just fat!. i mean my doctor told me i need to loose weight also!. i have probably the highest fat percentage possible for my body relative to my weight and height!.

so to get to the point, why do i not weigh less!?!?Www@Answer-Health@Com

First of all you are not eating enough calories!. You should never go below 1200 calories per day!.

When you eat so few calories a day you body thinks its starving and your metabolism will slow down and you will store calories instead of burning them!.

Everybody has a set weight point!. A set weight point the weight that your body will fight to maintain no matter what you do, short of starving yourself completely your metabolism will slow, and your insulin production will change to counteract your efforts!.
