I'm a guy, 22 years old, 5'7 and 156lbs. I've been using a calorie tracker app for the past 4 weeks. I'm also doing cardio basically every day, usually 30 mins (which burns around 170 calories), in the past few days I've been doing 60 mins. I also do some weight training and have a fair amount of muscle. I aim to eat mostly lean meat, beef, chicken, vegetables, fish etc. For some reason, my weight won't drop, I've only lost a bit over 2 pounds (1kg) and it feels like I shouldv'e lost more. The recommended calorie intake is around 1600, which I've been able to do, sometimes I manage to stay under 1600 pretty well. So I'm wondering if all the sites and apps that calculated the calories I need to lose weight are simply not accurate for me. A few years ago I managed to get to 134, and even then I still had excess fat (albeit less muscle mass). I'm honestly kinda lost, I'm not really sure what I should change or do differently. And yes, with my weight my BMI is still fine, but I just don't want so much excess fat. I'm naturally not heavy and it's always that small amount of fat that I can't lose.
