I have been on my diet, or "new lifestyle" since November and have lost 21 pounds...that's roughly 3 lbs a month...considering I still have 50 lbs to lose, that is NOT good enough! Anyone have any tips for what I should be doing differently? I typically eat between 1200-1700 calories (varying it daily) and go to the gym 4-6 days a week. i usually do about 30-45 minutes of cardio when i'm there, burning (according to my heart rate monitor) between 275-450 calories depending on what i do. I also strength train 2-3 times a week. I eat back most of my exercise calories...I am lost here...

I think you may have to increase the intensity of your workout (bigger weights, go faster, etc) or increase calorie intake. Try browsing through the unofficial FAQ, I found it very helpful: http://www.myfitnesspal.com/forums/show/474-unofficial-mfp-faq0

You work out too often. 3 days maybe 4.
Rest is crucial for proper dieting.0
