    You just have to believe that if you are eating right and exercising that eventually it'll pay off either in pounds or inches. To me I'd rather have inches falling off.

    Take your measurements if you haven't done so already. Also maybe some 'before' pics so you can see your progress that way as well.

    I know the feeling! I've dramatically changed how I eat and am exercising at least 30 minutes intensely every day and I noticed no weight difference. Once I measured myself though I noticed I've lost 5". Much more important than weight los! Especially if you are exercising you will be gaining muscle.

    I've taken a look at your food diary, and you really need to start eating more fruits and veggies, and proper meals. Like DecemberChild says, those 665 calories could be far better used to have a good meal.

    One of the things I noticed in your diary was Kellogg's Coco Pops = 3 calories. This doesn't look right to me. The Kellogg's UK website has 387 kcal per 100g. I think that should be 387 CALORIES per 100g (which makes more sense). The cereals I eat are based on 3/4 cup (about 30g) serving and range from 110-130 depending on the cereal. Add a 1/2 cup skim milk (about 45 cal) and you should be in the 155-175 calorie range. That's a lot different than 3 cal. I've confirmed this info on 2 different websites: http://www.weightlossresources.co.uk/calories-in-food/breakfast-cereals/Kelloggs-Coco-Pops.htm and Livestrong.com so I think it's right. If not, someone please correct me. As others have said, keep the mindset and determination, the changes will happen and they feel great when they do. Hang in there.
