Weight Loss Plateau... Already???
OK, I just posted my intro so here's the part I need some encouragement and/or advice on. First my stats. I'm a 32 year old female who is 5' tall and weighed in at 211.4lb for the 4th day straight this morning. I know I can't rely solely on the number of the scale so I'm trying not to get too discouraged, but after…

Magazines?

Losing Inches - Not Weight

Am I Exercising Too Much?
I'm a 32 year old female of 5' tall and 211lb who is trying to lose some weight... a lot of weigh! I've been keeping my daily food intake around 1200-1500 calories, BUT I have had days where I've eating over 1500 so I think (corret me if I'm wrong) that's balancing out overtime to be a healthy number of calories. I'm…
