It sounds like you are in a rut and need to mix things up. Are you doing cardio and weight training, because they torch calories when you combine them in your workout. (Also remember that muscle weighs more than fat, so you're probably doing pretty good.) I would suggest altering your exercise program and adjusting your…

Before I go to the gym, I just have coffee. I can't exercise with food in stomach. I eat an nutrition/meal bar after, depending how hungry I am. But it's up to the individual to decide what works best. There is no formula.

Do not get discouraged! Your body is adjusting to the changes you've made. The weight will come off. As you increase your fitness level and follow your meal plan, you will notice physical changes before the weight drops off. I've been exercising since 9/25/2013, and I've lost a total of 22 lbs with on and off use. It's…

It takes time. I gained weight at the beginning too. You need to be patient, watch your calorie intake, and exercise. It took a long time to put all that weight on, and it's going to take time to lose it. Be honest with yourself about what you eat and make healthy choices. Listen to your body. Try not to get discouraged…

I started off with walking 30 minutes a day, working my way up to an hour within about 4 weeks. I wasn't used to exercise either, but after a point, it was much easier to use the treadmill, I would speed it up from 3.5 mph to 3.8 mph. It's all about baby steps. When my weight began to plateau, I shook things up by adding…

I have to stick to my program because I tend to sabotage my diet when I say, "Oh, one piece of pie won't hurt..." Conveniently, I am the only vegetarian in my family, so I'll be bringing food I can eat. I'm going to eat vegetables and rice or a potato so I'll get full and won't feel deprived. If I want something sweet,…

It's good to know I'm not the only one who doesn't have that much of an appetite. I sometimes forget to eat breakfast because I'm not hungry. I'll have a cup of coffee with coconut cream, but I have no desire to eat. I can do a workout for 90 minutes, have a Clif Bar when I'm done, and be fine. When I do eat, I only pick @…

I could use some positive feedback and support too, so I'm happy to help. :smile:

When I saw that you have been eating a lot of cheese, I thought it sounded like you might have some lactose intolerance. I would suggest nixing the cheese and cutting out dairy altogether to see if that might be your problem I am lactose intolerant, so I nixed most of my dairy (except for pesto, which has a scant amount of…

The problem is I'm a vegetarian and stopped eating most dairy. I use pesto in my sandwich wraps, which I forgot to mention, that has a small amount of cheese in it. I need to find a non-dairy way to add more calories. That's what's making things so hard. Maybe I'll try incorporating rice or some other starch to get me…

Thank you! :smile:
