[font size="1" color="#FF0000"]LAST EDITED ON Feb-19-02 AT 05:14PM (Est)[/font][p]x( x( I am about 30 lbs overweight. I have been working out and eating very healthy since January 21, 2002. I realized on my 32nd birthday that I weighed the most I have ever weighed in my life and decided to start making some changes. I eat 1200-1300 calories a day w/ on average 25% from fat. I drink at least 8-10 glasses of water per day. I now take calcium supplements after reading all the research about calcium helping the body burn fat. It took me a little while to get motivated enough to work out regularly, but for the past 2 weeks I have been doing this schedule religiously:
Mon - PS Back/Biceps/Abs 20 minutes cardio
Tues - PS Legs/Abs
Wed - 30 min Cardio
Thurs - PS Chest/Shoulders/Triceps 20 minutes cardio
Fri - 30 min Cardio
Sat - Firm Tough Tape
Sun - off
Daily - Abs
In the last month I have only lost 3 lbs and 2% body fat (I have the Tonita (?) body fat scale). I keep telling myself that it took many years to put all this weight on and it won't come off overnight, but I just feel like I should be seeing better results than this??? You all seem like pros out there so I'm looking for any advice you can offer. Am I doing something wrong? Is there something more or different I could be doing? Or will I just eventually start seeing greater results as my fitness level increases? If so, how long should that take?? Help!! I'm fighting to stay motivated and reading these posts definitely helps!
