Try just going to bed earlier, change up the routine, do different things. any snacks you do eat be sure they are low…
  • Its ok, as long as you keep moving forward & keep trying, things happen, & sometimes you have to take into account other reasons for not loosing weight or weight gain. two weeks ago I was unable to get the scale to move & felt bloated for no apparent reason, then look out mother nature decided to surprise me a week early,…

  • I say your body does need some rest, to recouperate damamge done to muscles & joints, but that doesnt mean that your rest day you sit on your butt, do stuff, just take it more leisurely than a work out day. even days that i dont work out Im still busy, unless im sick. But I know like this week monday was an off day for me…

Im scale stuck this week too, but Im definitly tightening up, cuz my jeans are getting looser. sometimes I think my scale is possessed & just likes to torture me, I have on occasion threatened to run it over with my pick up! as long as you keep it up & mix up your work outs you will continue…

  • I believe in moderation as well. But I also think that everyone is different, some people can eat the pasta & its no big deal, others need to avoid sugar more tha carbs, others need to watch fat & salt consumption.

  • I agree you probably need a few more calories.but really examine what your eating a lot of.are you eating a lot of carbs or fat or sugars in there somewhere? (Not saying you are doing this but if you consume 1600 calories but it was all from potato chips your not going to trim the bulge). Mix up your exersizes/& intensity.…

Also I like to chop some vegetables up in it…
