The difference a couple of days makes!

thats great - you have probably gained a bit of muscle since starting to work out more

with the dizziness are you getting enough iron and stuff?

those pounds will soon start dropping off

Hi, Its almost cetainly muscle development that has caused your weight gain as it weighs more than fat bt takes up less space hence the loss in inches.

well cals depends more on her size height etc. If she is a really small person height wise it may be that is all she needs but my guess is that the dissiness is caused by low blood sugar, I really recommend that you go to a min of 1200/day net meaning that when you work out you keep that deficit so that you are at 1200 net cals/day. Eating the right kind of foods or "good carbs/proteins" will signal the metabolic rate to say ok I am getting what I need so lets drop the excess. Its really just a matter of getting the metabolism to get in line and start working right, I see way to many horror stories on here about ppl damn near staring themselves with so few cals not realizing that its doing more damage than they even know to their metabolism. Its simple really don't give the body what it needs and it will horde energy kind of like a spoiled kid with toys it sees the cals you eat "toys to a spolied kid" and says MINE all MINE and hordes them in the form of fat. If you give the body what it needs in the form of healthy food choices then it becomes the friendly kid who shares his toys "getting rid of the fat". Thats how I look at it, fueling the body with the right stuff makes weight loss easy, its getting the old mindset out the door and bringing in the new one. My wife has lost 50 lbs following that rule, more veggies, less processed junk and don't drink the cals with sweet sugary drinks she has done very well with it and I have dropped 20 lbs in 2 mths doing the same thing.

Are you eating carbs? Sometimes if you deplete carbs you can have some dizzy spells.
Make sure you take anice post workout shake after you workout or at least a solid meal with fast acting carbs

With being dizzy.. Are you drinking enough water? Not eating too much sugar? Making sure your diet is balanced with sufficient protein, and not too many carbs can help regulate your body. My program has a balanced protein-carb intake.. roughly the same number of grams for each meal. And the carbs are natural and not sugar. I've been feeling pretty well with the balance and cutting back on sugar--Although I find it nearly impossible to stay under the recommended levels of sugar hear, I do use it as a goal and my intake is definitely down. Drinking lots of water helps your body shed the fat too.. and really does help with the weight. Although, when you first up your water intake, your body will likely hold onto it because it doesn't know if more is coming. However, if you keep drinking it in, your body will start letting the water cycle through and you will have a good loss from it. Just my thoughts for what they're worth!
