    And remember that one pound is the equivalent to 3500 calories. If you look at it that way your burning off that much extra per week! And that's awesome! Remembering that helps me to keep it in perspective.

    What is your carb intake? reduce carbs and you might see a difference.

    50% carbs
    30% protein
    20% fat

    Someone suggested 40/30/30, but I'm worried if I lower my carbs I won't have energy to workout or get through the day. I'm up from 630am to 12pm most days.

    I trained and ran for a half marathon at 40/30/30. I also work shift work, 12 hour shifts. Again, if it doesn't work of you, fine, but 40 % carbs is not low.
