rapidly gaining weight despite excercise
| Tue, 06-30-2009 - 2:13pm |
Help ! About 7 months ago i had a medical setback that resulted in minor surgery (removal of one of my fallopian tubes). Since then i have hit the gym at least 3 times a week (30-45 mins on the treadmil or stationary bike and 1 hour strength training with weights )and am vegetarian but am gaining a lot of weight ...in fact i have gained 10lbs over the last 3 months and keep gaining weight ! I dont know what to do i am not sure what is going on ! Help !

I would keep a journal for a week, measure what you are eating and count the calories just to make sure there aren't any hidden intake issues.
I would definately start a food journal to check out exactly how much you are eating.

Welcome to the board :)
I see others have shared some great suggestions for you.
Let us know what you decide & if it helps/works.
Speaking with your doctor sounds good too.
Hope we'll see you back here again :)
Yikes!
Hi and welcome!
Are you tracking your calorie intake too?

Thanks for that tip Liz,
Probably something I need to look at & would conceivably increase the weight-loss factor in my case too - I really function best on a low carb, higher protein eating plan though I do love my carbs...
Let us know what they say & how it goes ..
As well as how you do with your food journal.
Look forward to seeing you here again :)
