That happens to me quite a bit. Last week I bonked after a hard workout, I felt dizzy and chilled for hours. "Off"explaims it perfectly. I was trying to cut my carbs down to 40% and that is too low for me. Make sure you eat something with healthy carbs and protein before your workout, or eat half a serving of each before,…

Sorry you're not seeing results as quickly as you'd like! Weight loss is so frustrating! I've had 4 kids and lost many pounds over the years. Just because you didn't lose this week, doesn't mean you are.doing anything wrong. If you are starting a new fitness program it is likely you are holding onto some fluid in your…

I had 4 pregnancies, and I gained a lot of weight...50-60 pounds! I used a method that Weight Watchers uses which is to take 10% of your weight and make that your current goal. So if you weighed 160, you would aim to lose 16 pounds, then once you reach that goal you celebrate (non-food lol!) and make the new 10% goal.…

You are DEFINATELY not eating enough calories, you're body is in starvation mode and hanging on to whatever you can give it. You will be pleasantly surprised if you eat more, by losing body fat and gaining muscle. My advice would be to add 2 snacks and space out your meals, 6am, 9am, 12pm, 3pm, and 6pm. I would have you…
