Boy, that escalated quickly......

What's an RMR?

And the other 3 days he has me doing cardio, on my own. Sorry, didnt want anyone to think I was slacking. :)

Ok, right now I'm doing what my Coach says. I'm 3 days a week with him and he makes sure what I eat. It follows what I have been already eating, though. I can give it until the end of the month and if I still dont budge, I can go get some bloodwork. The last time everything came back fine, but it wouldnt hurt to do it…

Ha, ha! No, I dont want the twinkie. But thank you! ;)

And I came on here to get help, no to defend myself. Apparently I need to post my receipt for my gym membership, but even if I did that someone would come up with "But you have to go". And I do. If you dont have anything to contribute, then please, dont. This started off helpful, but some of you are not being nice.

And to the person that said I was closer to 50% body fat, you are wrong. I'm closer to 40%. Trust me I checked. And if I go under 170, then I look like Dolly Parton, which is not the "look" I am going for.

I write down what I eat. My husband is paleo, so besides the morning bar, anything else in the house falls under that. Its sometimes easier to carry a notebook and write it down than it is to log it sometimes.

I'm currently 5'4 and 210. According to charts I should be in the 130's, but I am not built to be that small. 170 is a healthy weight for me and puts me in about a size 6.

By the way, high school was 20 years and 2 kids ago. I am nowhere near a healthy weight. I thought I had posted it earlier in this....

http://sophieologie.me/2013/09/26/1200-calories/ This was a good read. THANK YOU!

It shouldn't be any different. I just listed all that I've done, along with the "professional" help that I have received. I'll try and increase my calories and see what that does.

I'm not an eater. I'm a starver. That's always been my go to when losing weight. I battled aneorxia for many years during high school. When I gain, that's what I fall back on. So, no, its not overeating that is my problem by any means. I've done Weight Watchers, Adkins, Dietitians (a couple, actually), The Virgin Diet,…

OH MY!!! How does one eat that much??? I'm serious! I dont know how I could fit that into a day!

My stats are I'm 5'4 and 210.

Good advice! I will swap to a smoothie. Yes, the trainer asks me every time what I am eating I'm a creature of habit, so if I didn't log it, you can be sure that's its pretty close to the same thing I eat every day.

That's good advice. I forgot to put in my water amount. I'm already at 80 - 90 oz. a day. No caffiene.

WOW! Thanks everyone! I'll get on and see how to make that public. And yes, sadly, I do have a scale to measure food. However, I am not eating back the calories I burn. That could be part of it? That's just A LOT of food though!!! Keep the help coming! I'm taking notes!!!
