rock bottom... again... and again

Try upping the number of workouts per week.

I understand where you are. It is really frustrating. Don't let it bring you down. Put your head up and continue to do what you are doing. Maybe add a few more workouts per week as well. If you stick with it, the weight will come off.

What works for me is walking, yes, but real REAL fast. Walking, almost jogging, until I can hardly breath and sweat is rolling down into my eyes.
(My little grand son LOVES it when I push him this fast! Just be careful, make sure the walk way is totally smooth so no accidents)

But usually I use my treadmill and put it on an incline. I looked online and found a good work out for a treadmill. It's only for 1/2 hr. but it kicks my butt! It starts slow, then goes faster, then a minute of slow, then fast etc. etc.

I am sure you'll get other advice here also.
Open your food diary so people can help you better.

Good luck to you.

Weight loss is a marathon, not a sprint. It takes time for changes to occur. I would recommend, if you haven't already, that you take measurements. Don't rely on the scale--it lies. I can fluctuate in weight up to three pounds over the course of two consecutive mornings, and that is not even at TOM. A measuring tape will show you more accurate results, as will the way your clothes fit.

If you are honest about your calorie intake, and are eating at a deficit, the weight will start to come off, but it takes time for the body to regulate. Being patient was often the hardest part for me. Oh, and while it is important to exercise for overall health, in all honestly, unless you are exercising like a Biggest Loser contestant, it's tough to lose appreciable weight with exercise. The diet is what is going to get you the biggest loss. I don't know what your food intake looks like, but what really worked well for me was cutting out the majority of the processed carbs I ate and adding in more vegetables.

Going in with the attitude that this is a lifestyle change, and making healthy changes, will help you maintain the loss once you reach your goal. Good luck!

Like others have said, those photos (and I have several in my phone to remind me) are motivational, but they do tend to "push" me to a "faster, faster" kind of mentality. I just can't stand being this size, and I want it to change. Steady, solid changes in diet and exercise are what works. Always have.

What's helped me the most is logging everything. Every nut, every chip, every piece of fruit gets logged as best I can, and it really helps.

Keep going. You CAN!

DON'T GIVE UP! You can do this! This happens to me all the time!

Sometimes I sneak some food into my diet, and think if I don't log it, it won't count! IT DOES. Try also drinking lots of water, and increasing your fiber intake! Try eating six small meals a day instead of 3 big ones. Try eating more protein. Try increasing the number of times you work out, and decrease the amount of time you actually spend working out. Try new and different things, but please please please, don't give up!!

Like I said, you can do this!

Nothing tastes as good as thin feels!
Best of luck!

Each day I come in under my calorie goal and I really try to exercise at least 3 times a week for an hour or so plus I've tried to better my eating habits (especially breakfast and lunch) but I'm not seeing improvement. Ergh.

How long have you been dieting/exercising for? What progress so far?
