Hi everyone! My name is Connie. I have only been a member of myfitness for about a month. My dad passed away in Oct and I guess from all the stress and everything else that was going on made me gain weight. I was starting to get really depressed because I couldn't work out because I would get dizzy, or feel like I was going to pass out. I would eat then feel hungry again about 2 hours later. I am no longer hypoglycemic so I can work out now. I started eating every few hours and working out. Walking, spinning, and running. I had a metabolism test done and they say my metabolism was so high and I wasn't eating enough to sustain my body. So, I was storing fat instead of losing weight which answers why I was gaining weight instead of losing! I have never been this big before and want to lose it and I will. I currently weigh 192 and since i started my diet from the metabolism people 2 weeks ago I feel like I have tons of energy and feel like I'm losing inches. I weighed 180 in December and it seemed like I kept gaining! I usually weigh around 168. However, the scale isn't moving:( Is it because I'm gaining muscle and since muscle weighs more than fat thats why? I really want to see weight loss! Does anyone else have any advice?
