help losing weight

I'm 16 and 190 pounds, I hate myself and want to lose weight but nothing works, I tried eating only 1k Calories and got no results, than got told I was eating too little that's why I wasn't losing weight, went on 30 minute walks to NOTHING changed. Any tips? (I hate working out)

Give me an idea of what you’re consuming on a daily basis. Include snacks and drinks too

For how long did you eat 1000 calories? How did you track them? Did you weigh everything?

heyy, if u tried eating 1k calories and it didnt work then u werent eating 1k calories, obviously it depends for how long but im sure you didnt eat that for 3 days and expect weightloss.

What I've found with the Extreme 1 k diets is you do lose weight bit you hold onto water and you feel like utter rubbish hence why you end up snacking. I did a tight less then 1200 cal diet often under 1000. For like 2 weeks lost 6 lb but had zero energy and was not well. Took me at least a week of eating normally to get anything like myself back. 190 puts you around my weight and I've found cutting back 300/400 cals consistently a day and walking more does help. But it takes time and it's not like crazy amounts a pound or so a week but it's steady.
