silly question from a tightwad
I have two pairs of Reebok Play Dry tight running capris that were not cheap. They are starting to fall down when I am jogging. They are a medium, and I am not a small.

My Dad just picked up my son for a "boy's day". I was getting ready for the gym and weighed in at 160.8. (2.2 down from last weigh in) I whooped, and my dad says...wow, you weigh 160? I said..better than 202! (my starting weight) He says..looking at you, I would guess maybe 140.... I think he meant it is a compliment:)

No loss... Frustrated
So I have been working out with my trainer 2x a week and alone 1x a week for a little over a month. My clothes fit different but I have not lost anymore weight:( He said I am not eating enough calories and need to eat 5 or 6 times a day, not 3. I eat my suggested 1200 plus my exercise calories.
