The 15 lbs of baby weight I have to lose is basically keeping me from eating. It's like I've developed a semi eating disorder about it. I cannot rest until this weight is OFF. None of my clothes fit and I just feel so lardy even though I actually think I look fine. [ Reply | Watch | Flag ]

If you are not eating enough your body will shut down and you will not lose weight. Try eating 6 small meals per day as opposed to 3 big ones. I find when I eat more often I never feel hungry and it gives your metabolism a boost. Maybe add more high intensity cardio to your workouts - I find if I do not do high intensity cardio I tend to gain weight (or not lose if that's the goal). I run - I know that is not for everyone but there are other things you can do - elliptical, stair master, bike riding, swimming. [ Reply | More

Not eating slows down your metabolism & will get you on a vicious cycle. Lift weights, more muscle increases resting metabolism and will tone you up.Also, try meditation, acupuncture or something to keep you from focusing so much on losing weight. IMO, it's counterproductive - stressing about weight makes me gain weight. [ Reply | More
