16 year old male.  6'00".  Currently 220 lbs.

On May 31st, I weighed 235 pounds.  I have been off and on diets for the past three years.  I've always been big, but when I was told I'm actually obese, I knew action had to be taken.

By making healthier food choices, eating much smaller portions, and exercising more, I weighed 207 pounds this past Friday.  I kept with it.  Didn't stop ANYTHING.  I then bounced back to where I am now.

I find this is the norm.  Anytime I diet, I start to make progress.  Then for no reason, I gain it back.  It always gets back to where I started, and usually surpasses that.  I don't want to weigh 235+ again, and I see myself going back.

I'm currently averaging 1300 calories a day.  The majority of what I eat is healthy, I'd say!  I get a lot of exercise.  As of July 17th, I cut out any beverages that aren't water or milk.  I never eat more than 150 calories of "sweets" a day.  This had been working perfectly, and without problems!

Why am I going back?  Please help me figure something out so I don't end up back there...

You're eating too little. I'd be shooting for 1800-2000.
