Reply from Marina, Age 16 - 02/29/04 - IP#: 24.215.12.xxx You hit a point where you can't lose anymore weight through what you are doing. It sounds like you're doing everything right. There are now 2 things that could change this. One being, you need to eat more & in correct balance. A lot of people don't eat enough...or they simply dont' balance their meals. For example If you're eating mostly carbs throughout the day, then you won't lose too much weight. Same goes for protein & fat. This is why high protein diets are unhealthy and don't work too well. Make sure you're eating a balance of 40-30-30. 40% carbs, 30% protien & 30% fat. You need all three of these per meal to lose weight! If this is not the case the second possibility is that you need to start toning. Meaning, you need to get onto those weights! As long as you use light weights and do enough reps with short breaks, you don't have to worry about getting bulky. Muscle burns fat. With some weight lifting you'll find you'll have a nicely sculpted body (with or without bulk or too much muscle depending on what you want) and you'll look great!
