Your issue sounds similar to mine. I exercise 4-6 days week eat around 1500 calories but I'm down a few up a few. Frustrating. Will go on for months. I do see a difference when I eat yeast free, similar to paleo I will loose like normal people . But its not ez to maintain eating this way. But I will loose 2-3 pounds per week. I do have hypothyroidism and am taking medicine. But unfortunately medicine doesn't eliminate all side effects. And i have read that this endocrine disorder can slow metabolic up to 20 percent even when on medication. you should have your thyroid checked.hope this helps. I'd be interested to know if one of these works for you too.

This is a very old thread. I sincerely doubt the OP will be back.
