congretz on reaching your goal. and i m sure u lost that weight because of that plateau break

now comes the hard part

"MAINTAINING"     &n bsp;     i DREAD it

really need help

you have to decide ur self what type of exercise u want to do.. and for how long.. site tools recommend 3 times minimum activity in a week.. it advises to be active.. u just have to exercise and log it in ur activity log.. and dont be more deficit than the total daily consumption goal

hmmmmmmmm

all recipies seem yummy

im actually trying some of them

my problem is that i dont actually use net that much...(my son always wants to play with the pc when its on) lolll

thats why im replying so late in my own thread...

what can i do...

I'd like to find that recipe as well! I've made several friends and corresponded several times. I still have not heard from several of them, I have since then moved on. I guess you could try to participate in the daily chat or post/reply on topics that you know about. Ehh, sorry I'm not so helpful! :)  Cute title, btw!

  thx for replying...

the only few u made... how did u do that?

did u reply to their posts or just added them and sent pvt messeges etc?

how do u correspond with them.. on posts??? or personally or msn yahoo etc?

Girl, let me tell you -- I lost 99 pounds, and I look at myself and STILL barely see a difference. It could be your mindset. I still feel like this huge, fat, nasty girl who needs to jog, run, walk and lift more, more, more, and eat less, less, less! It's a self-defeating attitude, but it really could be that you don't see it because you have that mindset, too.

Just a thought.

 wish it was just a thought...(sigh)

i am talking abt actuall measurements

any help plz..

i posted the same question in "ask mary" section.. no reply yet..

any help would be mych appreciated

It can depend on a lot of things, I think. How much did you weight to start with? How tall are you? (I mean, a 20 pound weight loss on someone who is 5'8" is not gonna be the same as someone that's 5'1").

Have you been weight training when you work out? Weight training protects your muscle, keeps them there and might help them develop more (depending on how much you eat). Not weight training can lead to a weight loss that's muscle as well as fat, not just mostly fat. Muscle is more dense than fat - it weights more for the same 'space'. So if you lost weight that's mostly muscle, because you focus on cardio (that's an hypothesis, you didn't specify much other than that'd you'd been working out for three months, which can mean anything) alone or only do a little weight training, you may have lost a lot of muscle, which wouldn't show as much as a high-fat loss, since it takes up less space to start with.

 how can i loose muscle?... isnt  that suppose to happen when fat is not found in much larger amount?

though im not doing strength training... not enough cardio even... im just doing calisthenics for 40 mins... i do sweat and my heart beats faster.. so i assumed i am buring fat

may be i didnt take enough protein in my diet.. can that be the reason????

and to add on to what Vman said, it could also be that the weight loss is in more discreet places that is not as noticable as say your as$, legs, abdominal...you may have lost it in your breasts, arms.....

How much do you weigh now and how much more do you want to lose?

didnt know how much were my legs.. but everything else is just the same.. breast, neck, ass .. did loose some 8 inches or so on upper abdomin whereas lower abdomin is just the same.

i donno whats happening
