and i've only lost like 2 pds LOL ummm.....wtf?   
im seeing some results in my legs, hips, arms, ass, but my stomach & weight is still the same, minus a pound or two.
I changed my diet (3 months ago) to eating healthy foods like chicken & alot of veggies, alot of fruits, low-card shit....etc etc
am i doing something wrong?? or does it just take a while for results to show up? |
Have you lost any inchs? I used to weigh 450lbs, my first 3 months (doing roughly the same thing that you are doing) I actually gained 5 lbs. However i lost nearly 4 inchs from my waist. After that, I think it was because my body was finally back into balance, the weight just started to shed off. its been about one and a half years, and i am now down to 280lbs. Just keep at it, and if your having issues over the next month, pick up a personal trainer once per week, just to give you some good exercise tips. Everybody is different, and personal trainers are great because they can target your exercises to help you loose the weight much cleaner and faster.
Also, as to your diet, just cut out sodium and sugars. Sugar goes directly to fat, and sodium messes with your sodium potassium pump that makes ATP (the bodies energy source) Finally, drink A LOT OF WATER, if you want to shed the weight, take your weight divide it by 2, and thats the number of ounces you should drink in a day.
Hope this helps
