  • Thank you for your post. How long do you think it should take to lose 20 lbs if cardio is been done 4-5 times a week along with weights eating around 1200 cal?

    You should aim to lose about a pound a week. Be patient and the results will happen. If you use resistance rather than cardio, you will gain lean muscle mass as well as losing fat and as a result, your metabolism will also increase so its a win win for you.

    This is awesome. I find myself in this situation currently because I am doing the South Beach Diet. My appetite isn't really there and I lost so much weight in only two weeks, I was scared to start eating "normally" again. My weight loss has plateaued, so I am forcing myself to eat a healthy amount of food now. Using MFP helps me to see that I was not eating enough and doing damage to my metabolism.

    Thank you for this very timely post - I just increased my calories due to low energy and I'm freaking out about the little bit of weight gain. I will keep going and see what happens...

    Thank you so much for this post!! Fabulous fabulous fabulous. I love learning about this. I'll probably go get this book; it sounds like it cuts out all the myths and crap that are abound in the dieting world and just tells it like it is.

    I read the article online...thought I should buy the book. My son told me that all the information is free on the web if you just look and read. lol
