Stuck

Options
I am working out twice a day, 6 days a week. I do strength training in the morning and cardio at night. I watch what I eat and I have cut out 99% of the items I used to love ie: coke, white bread, chips, chocolate everyday and sugary snack. In the first 2 weeks I lost 6lbs, and tomorrow will be 1 month and I have actually gained 1.5lbs. I know people say not to worry about the scale, worry about your clothes fitting better, but I have enough fat on me that I should see more come off?? I am just frustrated that I am working so hard and getting very little benefit.

    I am just as frustrated...I cut out a lot of the bad stuff, started doing Insanity....have only lost 3 pounds...and nothing in the last couple of weeks. My hubby on the other hand has lost 7 in the last week by doing nothing more than rolling over in bed. lol It is easy to get frustrated and I wish I had taken measurements in the beginning so I could go by that.

    Hang in there...it has to happen.

    Progress pics every 30 days, especially for lifters. Critical if you need motivation.
