Helping my girl lose weight
My girl has dropped 25lbs and can not lose any more and I mean she cannot .
We have backed her intake of calories to as low as 1000 calories a day . Still no weight lose. She follows an intensive workout routine. Have changed her diet many of times but it took a year to cut 25lbs and then nothing.
We have decided to look into supplementation now as any otc products and such have had no effect.
Also have tried keto for anybody who may recommend that 6 weeks in she lost no weight.

Please give us here current diet and training to see where it's at.

I would say you are starving her. Calories should never go that low ever. I would recommend a reverse diet back to maintenance with a break before you look into dieting again and adding suppliments. Does she have any other goals other than losing weight? What is her height, age, weight ect as of now. Also I would take note that lowering the calories isn't always the answer and can cause more damage than good in certain situations. Has she tried hiit before?

Ive seen ketosis drop 20 lbs in 3 weeks, no exercise. Not sure if shes already tried that. Shit works. Not sure about hitting the gym real hard while doing it either, just something Ive seen and throwing out there.

And I would agree with Gym89, get her back up to maintenance then take it from there.

Would need to know what the current diet looks like and I guess most recent change in diet you mentioned you've tried. If she's training really intensely on a highly restricted diet, if the body sees that it is being starved of required nutrients (i.e. appropriate energy for the work demands), it's going to stall out. Possible also "overtraining" which can also result in a general stall.

The last 2 weeks she hasn't been on a a diet as she doesn't gain or lose either way.
I would not say she is over training either as she has also backed that down just a bit to what she did when she first lost that 25lbs.
As of now she has a slightly above average training regime and a healthy diet.
5ft 1in 130lbs and 22 years old for those wondering.

I get what your saying but here's what I'm saying I have had her try intermittent fasting, keto , carb cycling , low calorie and each one she did for 5-6 weeks .
She runs 2-3 miles every morning and has a very active day.
Workouts are about 1.5 hours long at 75 % for sets of 8-12 for 3-4 sets
Monday:back
Tuesday:legs
Wednesday:chest
Thursday:arms
Friday:back
Saturday:legs
Sunday: rest
Rest between sets 60-90 seconds
She drinks only propel water
And sleeps 6 hours a night sometimes 7 or 8.

I think your girl is sneaking food without your knowledge. If you are in a caloric deficit, then you will lose weight. The 1000 kcals she is presumed to be eating would be far far too low anyway. 500 below maint with cardio and strength training.
