Sounds like you need more fibre in your diet. You can also use a supplement such as "Clearly Fibre" that works extremely well. It is tasteless and mixes with all liquids and can be added to almost any food. Available at most Health Food Stores and Pharmacies. This is a natural vegetable fibre made from chicory root.

Proteins and carbs have 4 calories per gram and fat has 9 calories per gram. Eat too much of anything and you will gain. Anything I have read or been told is that you need a minimum of 60 to 80 grams of protein per day during weight loss to maintain your muscle mass.

I think what you are doing is just great. There are many benefits to exercise but burning calories is a significant one. Putting the other reasons aside it really makes no sense to burn calories and eat to put them back on. Stored calories are fat and getting rid of it is the what this whole thing of dieting is about. I…

Look at how many calories you need to just maintain your current weight. To lose weight either have to consume less calories (eat less) or burn them off through activity, but you can only go so low for any length of time without creating health issues for yourself. Nutritionists I've talked to recommend that weight loss of…
