In this specific example, someone may start to think they have a "slow metabolism" just because they aren't losing weight on their supposed diet.
⠀
If this person also happens to be petite and sedentary, 1710 calories is what they likely need to maintain weight, not lose it.
⠀
If you find yourself using the excuse of “I barely eat but I cant lose weight”, then I encourage you to spend 3+ days really paying attention 👀 to everything you put in your body📝
⠀
Now this is not an example of what you should eat per day in my opinion, I actually ask my clients to eat more food on a regular basis😂, but it could shed some light on why you aren't losing the pounds.
