Interestingly enough I have portion control down. I haven’t gained a pound in 6 months. My problem is I can’t loose weight! I finally came to the conclusion that with the yoyo dieting of my life I had lowered my metabolism to a crawl. So I started exercising.
All the weeks later I have lost 3 lbs! Just 3!
At first I didn’t change my diet much because I had already mastered portion control. Now I am eating like a bird. I don’t eat much meat so I am concentrating on proteins. I have those Atkins shakes and my fridge is full of TOFU. I am also eating non salted nuts but not too many.
Yesterday with tears in my eyes I took my Dr Phil book and walked over to my Dr’s house (2 houses over) practically demanding a thyroid test. I don’t think he thinks that is my problem but I will be getting one of those in the next week. He seems to think I was adding muscle which was causing the scale not to go down. I don’t think it’s that.
Today I have ingested 1 Atkins protein shake (170 cal), Tofu (75 Cal), and 3 pecans. My only drink has been Dr Coke.
Tomorrow I will again haul myself 3 pound lighter body to 24 Fitness to workout again but do you guys have any ideas? Could it be my metabolism? How long does it take to boost a metabolism?


Couple things.
I completely agree with Divine (Im beginning to sound like a echo but she gives good advice hehe)
You definitely didnt eat enough today....Im not sure how you are even moving if this is how you eat everyday and exercising.
