If it is coming off faster than that, you're cutting too far.

    What is your exercise routine like?
    Monday-Saturday I do about 10-15 minutes of HIIT in the morning empty stomach. Im also doing a 3-day split for about 45 minutes to an hour of arms, legs, and back. And yeah I figured having 178 Grams of protein was too high especially since I don't use any type of whey protein. I get it all from the foods I eat and get about 65-80+ grams depending on the day.

    The loseit app is horrible in comparison. It told me to have 700 calories a day to lose weight at 1-1.5 lbs per week. Seriously? I know I'm small but would feel sick on that few calories.

    You can always add chia seeds, ground flax, greek yogurt and cottage cheese. If I am in a deficit for the day, I do a quick egg white omlet before bed. I did 1200 or so per day for about 4 months and then kicked it up to 1400. I just kept my protein grams about equal to body weight. Works for me.
