    Oh I eat plenty of protein and fiber(I usually go over on them)...that can't be the issue. But thanks for the suggestion.

    Have you tried more veggies and fruits and less processed stuff? It looks like you eat lots of processed and packaged foods and really tiny servings of veggies. I am often guilty of the same, but find when I up the vegetables and lower the other stuff, the weight comes of more easily.
  • Try watching your sugars as well. Make sure you are getting enough calories and change up your workout. If you push yourself a little harder on your workouts and change it up from walking only, you should see some changes in the scale. Also watch carbs at night. Hope you see some changes soon, but do remember regardless of the scale if you are eating healthy and working out you are doing a wonderful thing for your body, mind and soul.

    Have a happy and healthy day!!

    I agree 100%. you will notice a change on the scale when you increase your fruit and veggies and eat less processed foods. Not to mention you will feel so energized you will want to be twice as active. Good luck! :smile:

    Walk faster! Try to beat your previous times.

    Are you using an HRM? 800 calories seems rather high for 3.6 miles.

    I noticed in your diary it doesn't show sugar.. how are your sugar levels? I agree with everyone else. Stay away from the processed foods and see how that effects your weight loss.

    Yes I am using a HRM. The trail I walk is partially in the woods. It goes up and down hills. I jog up the hills. There is also a stretch that goes on the local college campus and there is a flight of stairs that I jog up and down which is actually not on the trail. That may be why the HRM is saying I am burning so many calories.
