What am I doing wrong?
I have been trying to lose weight for 2 months and counting. I have not lost a pound. Now I know muscle weighs more than fat, but I think I may be working my muscles too much. I exercise different muscle groups every day so I give my other muscles a break. Maybe I should just do that 5 times a week instead of 7?
I do need to keep my heart rate at 162 which I have not been doing. As far as me losing weight, I did it the wrong way the first time around. I fainted more times than I can count and felt lightheaded on a daily basis because I kept my calorie consumption to less than 800 calories, and I had an active job.
I am doing things differently. I told myself that this year. As soon as January came, I started adding resistance every day. I am able to lift more weight (20 lbs more) in all muscle groups than January 1st. I feel better, but still no lbs lost. My magic number for calorie consumption is 1421. I had assistance calculating that. So I have to be serious regarding my dietary intake. I know I am exercising enough. I may have to do resistance training less though because I am not losing any weight. I have started to take measurements so I can see SOME progress. Hopefully I'll see some results next Monday.
Wish me luck in my venture. This will be my online journal for my progress for however long it takes me to get down to where I want to be.
