Please help I workout, Jillians dvds, eliptical, treadmill, rip 60. I mix them up atleast 5 days a week.
I try to do the 1500 calories and usually am close.
I cannot shed the pounds. Would I be better off doing just cardio until i love the lbs and inches. Its not just the lbs its also the inches that are going away! ..

Thanks for your replies!

    Have you lost any weight so far? You could've hit that dreadful plateau if not I would try more cardio and examine the foods your eating,I hope this helps

    You might just be losing mass as opposed to weight. Try not to overthink it, and carry on. :)

    your body might be intolerant of certain foods you're eating. if you can, go see a nutritionist and they'll be able to help figure out what it is that isn't working in your system. if you can't go to a nutritionist, try cutting one thing out like steak or eggs or whatever for fourteen days at a time and see which one works. OR you might not be intolerant at all! make sure you're getting enough sleep and that you are eating enough- if you don't eat enough protein or enough calories in general, then your system will think that its starving and will try to maintain fat content and calories. I hope this helps, just some things I've learned from various sources over time. good luck!

    what r u eating, just because you are close or under 1500 calories a day, you could be eating things that are making your body store fat...just a suggestion, my weight did not move until I looked at what I was eating.
