Two weeks and no loss

Oh and sometimes (odd this) you need to increase your calories for a few days - not vastly - but if you are on 1200 a day and maybe you are eating less? Well it all slows down a bit so if you suddenly eat say, 1400 or 1500 just for a few days and then go back to 1200 you may well find weight loss. I don't know why this is but I think it is like revving the engine - it shocks the body again.
And you may want to change what ever exercise you are doing. If you are doing cardio, try weights and if you are doing weights - try cardio. Weight falls of me when I do cardio - aerobics and spinning, combat etc. But nothing much comes off when I do Pump. Experts insist that weights are better for weight loss but I'm not so sure (for me) but whichever it is, you get used to one type of exercise so try something different every few weeks. You may even want to exercise twice a day. Say, gym in the morning for a hard workout and a walk later in the day. The body loves this ... (it seems a lot but I bet you watch television instead?)0 -
Thank you for all the replies, tips and comments. It looks like I need to analyze my intake, add more water and maybe more food.0

It typically takes your body time to adjust to the changes you are making. Two weeks is not very long. If you are doing everything right and after 4/5 weeks, you are not losing, then you need to reexamine.0
