Been working out for about 3 weeks. I see no weight loss, not even a pound. Although, my BMI has stayed at 24%. I honestly work out hard and watch what I eat. Why am I not seeing ANY weight loss? Any ideas. Btw, I'm 47 years old.

    Have you been eating to hit a specific calorie goal? Weight loss is created by a calorie deficit, not by exercise.

    Yes, try to stay below the daily intake myfitness plan gives me.

    I can't see your diary, but it's relatively common for people to be making some logging errors that result in them eating more than they think they are. Three weeks is a bit early to be worried about progress, but if you open your diary we may be able to help you troubleshoot your logging.
