    I still like cereal a lot but sadly porridge is far more filling, though less interesting!

    Don't give up! You can do this! I have really seen results using my elliptical. Another trick is greek yogurt. 80 or 100 calorie.
    Be careful about eating to much fruit. There is a lot of sugar in some of them. I have found apples to be very beneficial for weight loss. Good Luck! uote="charliedavis995;10097405"]I have been trying to lose weight now for just over 3 weeks, I have dramatically changed my lifestyle, I am really active and go to the gym 4 times a week whilst also playing football twice a week. I can see a slight difference in my legs but more to do with muscle definition and not weight loss. My stomach is the main area I want to work on but everything I try seems to be not working. I am working so hard by changing my diet and fitness plans but it seems nothing is paying off and I am not seeing results. HELP
    A basic run down of my diet consists of:
    Breakfast: homemade smoothie
    Snack: fruit
    Lunch: egg white omlette or salad
    Gym and recovery shake
    Dinner: meat/fish rice/ sweet potato and veg

    Really need some help before I get so angry that I go back to the rubbish I was eating before.
    Does anyone have any ideas about what to do?[/quote]

    On a similar note I have to tell you that I'm not even interested in eating cereal anymore after seeing how fing small a serving actually is. Damn it's like two handfuls if even that. Also don't listen to people who tell you to eat more.

    so eating under 1000 calories is OK …did you even look at OPs food diary???

    Sugar in fruit is not anyone's enemy. Overeating or undereating is.

    Okay...so yes a scale is better than measuring cups...but measuring cups are better than eyeballing it or nothing at all. baby steps here people!

    Lol I don't know how anyone would be satisfied with those piddly cereal servings!

    Another case of inaccurate logging likely resulting in eating more than you think while burning less.

    I highly recommend that you open up your diary, if you want specific advise.

    With the little info you've listed, it could be a number of things. Your best bet is that it's only been 3 weeks so give it some time! If you are noticing muscular definition, then you are on the right track. Try taking measurements instead of relying solely on the scale.

    Keep it up! It's not a race! :)

    Really? I could have sworn this time the answer was starvation mode. I've been foiled again.
