some weeks are going to be like that - check your balance between protein and fat you are consuming. Your protein intake seems high - which can be a good thing, but usually, there will be a % where carbs are about 40-60 - fats 20-30 and protein the balance. I think www.livestrong.com has some articles on this. That could be the difference - a fine tune - as it looks like you are doing great overall with intake and exercise. keep it up - do not become discouraged and stop your good work to date. :)

Exercise is good for health and toning - but it does not contribute significantly to weight loss. Cut down on the sugar. Ditch the daily banana - pure sugar at 24 carbs (= 6 tsp sugar). Replace it with blueberries or raspberries. Ditch the rice - pure sugar at 44 carbs (=11 tsp sugar). Replace it with konjac noodles (zero calories/carbs, available at New World) or cauliflower rice. Eat full-fat yoghurt - the fat makes you feel full longer and doesn't increase weight. Try to keep sugar (carbs) low and you will burn fat - body fat.....

Thanks Kiwimike 😊 I know I'm impatient but I have committed to doing this and so I will! I have been consciously eating more protein to try conserve muscle mass (sweet FA there to start with) while losing 20kg in 20 weeks. Thanks for the website link, I will check it out 😊

Thanks Jaybee 😊 I've been subscribing to the school of thought of calories in vs calories out and trying to think of it as simple mathematics...where I'm getting frustrated is that I can calculate a calorie deficit to achieve my 1kg a week goal and when it doesn't turn up in the scales it makes me want to chuck my toys hahaha 😆😆 Will try losing the banana and rice and we how I go. I did make cauliflower rice last week and it was meh 🤔
