So I was doing c2k for a bit, until it had me run from 2 min to 5 min in one shot. There was no way I could do it. So I increase my time of running by 10 seconds either everyday or every week. I started at 2 min and now I am at 3.40 min. I have never ran for 4 min for any given length of time.

the're not, accurate at all, you should get a Polor PT4 or some sort of heart rate monitor. You may not burn the same amount of calories per exercise, as you lose weight.

Maybe you need to drink more water overall and not on days your just working out? You can also try having a cup coffee 30min before you start to exercise

listen to your body. If you need to eat, then eat. if you don't then don't. Some people do, some people don't.

I guess for me, to help you with that answer would by run on a treadmill to see what your pace is, then start increasing it, over time. so if you run 5.0 m/h, try 5.1 or 5.2 etc. and eventually your time will start to decrease.

fish is high in protien Rabbit food is low in carbs (Celery, lettuce, etc..) Some Yogurts, like 3-0 is high in Protein but low in calories, no, carbs, no fat.

I am not entirely sure that is correct. Calories is just food, but its the carbs that fuel your body, and if you don't eat the carbs, then the storage carbs/fat is used to fuel the body. Right. So I believe this because there are people who are 600 lbs, and lose weight at 12000 calories, they are able to lose a 1 lbs a…

If one loses weight/fat at a deficit -- which she is, why does it matter if she is eating 800 calories, or at 1500? A deficit is a deficit, so why does 400, or 700 calories make a difference?

Hi.. I do things a bit different. I try to keep a running total time of 30min. I try to keep a break time ( time between laps) to 2 min. I try to increase my lap time by 10 seconds per day.

Whats in June? How much do you exercise? Have you tried to drop the carbs, and have high protein, ( It works for me, it may work for you).

I would exercise more --- Just enough for you to burn off the sugar. so if you consumed 50 extra grams of sugar for coffee, then go for a walk to burn it off., on that day. If is too short not to enjoy your coffee

Wait..I have tons a questions for the OP. are you measuring your food. Do you weight it, with a food scale? Do you exercise? do you record how much calories you burn with a hear rate monitor. It doesn't need to be accurate, it just needs to give you a base line, and here why. If the scale is not moving, then exercise more,…

I lost 8 lbs in 4 weeks.

@mirandafinch -- You could have a bigger cup of coffee with lower amounts of sugar. Do that for a bit, until you can wing your self off of sugar. Could you take sugar substitute.

Can you exercise? You could eat more then, then exercise it off.

You could limit your use of Half & half. 10 calories with no sugars. per serving. You could also exercise to make up the difference...

Is that your answer that you are looking for. Strength training will put on weight. Maybe you can lower your carbs, or lower your calorie intake, start by 100 calories

Hi. My sister in-law, lost over 100 lbs with low carb high protein diet. are you a vegetarian or a vegan ? Low carbs food would be rabbit food ( lettuce, mushrooms, celery, etc).

Great Job!!!

wow.. wow.. Back in my day, we called fasting - lack of food and water, or not eating or drinking. but if the OP wants to try intermittent fasting. The Muslim holiday is coming up. she can do it then.

then what is wet fasting?

What is dry fasting?

You don't have that much to lose, All you have to lose is 5lbs then re-evaluate your self again, if you have to lose 5 more lbs. Now depending on your activities, you should be able to lose 5lbs a month. Just focus on 5lbs.

Eh.. I am a beginner, Never got out of being a beginner. Me personally, I don't care about distance, I care about how long I can run for, ( lap) I started/restarted at 2 min,, now I am at 2 min and 50 seconds. Tomorrow should be 3 min. Never ran for 3 min. Should be interesting

You could try to wear more form fitting clothing?

Eat 100 calorie less, work out 100 calories more, until you see a change.

What about running?

Is it possible for you to do some cardio in the morning? Is it possible instead of walking to run?

What if her Fit bit was off?

If you are doing CICO and you are correctly measuring your meals, then the last variable needs to be increased. Increase your cardio, by 100 calories ( should =10min) until you see the scale moving.
