I'm feeling discouraged

I don't know why it's so hard for me to lose weight. I watch my calories and walk for 20 minutes every day.

This is an example of what I've been eating every day for the past year.

Brunch

Smoothie

1/2 cup fat-free milk
5.3 oz sugar-free yogurt: 90 calories
Handful of spinach
Handful of blueberries
Handful of almonds

Dinner

A protein (usually meat)
Vegetable side
Potato, rice, or pasta side

Evening snack

20 pistachios
Stick of cheese

I don’t think you’re getting enough protein.

My day:
Breakfast :2eggs and Turkey sausage sometimes a veg as well.

Snack:yogurt (Oikos Pro) possibly fruit added

Lunch: some kind of protein (chicken, tuna, even lunch meat). On a wrap or whole grain bread or over spinach/salad

Snack: rice cake with peanutbutter and/or fruit, or handfull of nuts (get outta here you perverts! 🤭)

Dinner: protein with veg and sometimes rice/protein pasta/potato

I walk 30-45min every morning and a few times a week use small dumbbells to do a few exercises through the day. I finally have been seeing changes in my body composition (it’s been a couple months of this), and I still allow myself cheat thing/treat here and there

@WaryWitchWandering also… I’m def not an expert and obviously every body is different. I’m just sharing what is working for me currently

Maybe bring this up with doctor and see what they say?
