i'm honestly not sure about whether or not you should reduce your calorie intake but i would recommend that if you want a more "numeric" tracking system and dont want to buy a scale, you could purchase a tape measurer (the type used for sewing) and begin taking ur measurements every 2-4 weeks ...that way even if you dont…

i have degenerative disc disease and went through physical therapy for about 6 months... they started me slow (similar to what you're doing).. the cardio that worked best for me was the elliptical bc of the lack of impact (did you know jogging puts something like 300x your body weight's pressure on your spine?! crazy!…

if you are building muscle and losing fat then it stands true that you may lose inches but not pounds...though eventually the pounds will start to shed as well. maybe you should also be measuring your body fat percentage

do u like fish? cod and tilapia are cheap lean proteins... eggs, a protein shake is a GREAT way to get good protein and add some to your calories.. i do mine with 8 oz of milk and between the two its about 200 calories and 33 g of protein... :)
-
I use exercise TV...i could add in a workout at night after work too- there are all kinds of videos- i'm sure i could get in the extra 250 calories that way- i work 45 mins from home so i usually dont get him to bed until about 930- guess saying that i just want some quiet alone time is the type of excuse that got me…
-
