    Why can't I lose weight?

    This is odd. For the past couple of years I've had the same measurements:

    174 pounds
    5"9 tall

    give or take a couple of pounds. I ate whatever I wanted.
    Anyway, not fat, but losing 10 pounds would be an improvement.

    So three months ago I decided to lose some weight. I went from playing tennis once a week and jogging once a week to jogging three times a week and playing tennis twice (Also increased jogging distance from 5-6miles to 7-8 miles per day and speed). In addition, I started eating less in quantity and also less fat. I eat about 1,700 calories a day which consists of about 70% carbs, 20% protein and 10% fat.

    Yet, for some bizzaar reason, three months later, sticking with this routine, I still weight 174 pounds. I don't think my body compesition has changed much (Maybe legs are a bit stronger, I make better jogging time now than I used to).

    I enjoy it, so not planning on stopping, but shouldn't I be dropping some excess fat with this routine?!

          Lean Muscle weighs MORE than fat

          so when you start to work out you'll loose fat and gain muscle so for the first few months you'll probably weigh about the same as when you started
          if you Bulk up a lot you'll probably end up weighing more than when you started

          don't worry about pounds just worry about your body fat %

                      If you do say 1-hour of cardio a day and reduce your calory intake by 20+% you WILL loose fat, it is iimpossible not to. But as Kitty said, this may not affect your weight initially, as muscle weighs more than fat.

                          Well, I haven't "started working out". I do mostly aerobics. And I have been doing them before only less. I probably gained a bit of lean muslce, but my guess would be VERY little. And my body fat % is the same (20%, though it's hard to measure small changes).

                              If you have significantly increased your cardio exercise and significantly reduced your calorie intake over a 3-month period and not lost any fat, you should see a doctor. This is not normal.

                                  A good cutting diet is 40% Carbs, 40% protein, 20% fat.

                                  1700 calories a day is way too little. Eat 2400 and do REGULAR (as in almost daily) weightlifting and cardio a few days a week as well.

                                  Eat clean foods and avoid refined sugar whenever possible.

                                  There is no healthy fast food.

                                              Also...with doing all that cardio and only eating 20% protein, you're going to end up burning muscle.
                                              It's inevitable.

                                                      Dont eat after 19:00 ..
                                                      Do sport everyday but dont do it with full power.
                                                      For loosing fat you need to run longer and not faster ..
                                                      Same with bike and evey workout you do .. Do it longer but more easy then harder and faster .. When you stress yourself with hard workout your body panic and collect as much calories as possible after your first meal .. This way you wont loose or it will take you years ..

                                                                                      I have started jogging in the morning recently. I heard it's good for burning fat but in addition, it's a lot nicer. Air is cleaner, body is cleaner, not a lot of people...

Putting your heart on 155 heart everyday is not needed. You need to train you heart with such high rate only once per week.
                                                                                          In this one day of training you can reach 155-175 (depends on your age of course) but not higher then your maximal rate heart whichi is easy to calculate using 220-your age=your maximal BMP rate.

                                                                                          For training of course you can use whatever hours you . If you run outside of course morning hours are great with fresh air ..
                                                                                          It doesnt really matter but if your plan is to loose some fat first then the best way to do its 2 hours after your last meal ..

                                                                                                  give or take a couple of pounds. I ate whatever I wanted.
                                                                                                  Anyway, not fat, but losing 10 pounds would be an improvement.

                                                                                                  So three months ago I decided to lose some weight. I went from playing tennis once a week and jogging once a week to jogging three times a week and playing tennis twice (Also increased jogging distance from 5-6miles to 7-8 miles per day and speed). In addition, I started eating less in quantity and also less fat. I eat about 1,700 calories a day which consists of about 70% carbs, 20% protein and 10% fat.

                                                                                                  Yet, for some bizzaar reason, three months later, sticking with this routine, I still weight 174 pounds. I don't think my body compesition has changed much (Maybe legs are a bit stronger, I make better jogging time now than I used to).

                                                                                                  I enjoy it, so not planning on stopping, but shouldn't I be dropping some excess fat with this routine?!
                                                                                                  start to lift weights and do cardio more during the week. maybe use an excercise bike 3 times a week as well at a decent speed/intensity.

                                                                                                  drop calories down to 1500 by dropping carbs. protein levels are fairly low to begin with.

                                                                                                      Two and a half years ago I had the worse throat infection ever. Took three different types of antibiotics until I got rid of it.
                                                                                                      I stayed in bed for two and a half weeks with a high fever and not being able to keep any food down. Lost 19 pounds.

Do it longer but more easy then harder and faster .. When you stress yourself with hard workout your body panic and collect as much calories as possible after your first meal .. This way you wont loose or it will take you years ..
                                                                                                          too much intensity is bad because it won't be long enough, but dropping intensity for longevity is bad as well

Dont make you heart rate go over 135-140 for 2 weeks but keep work out for 1 hour .. And you will see great results .. Its very simple mechanism. If you take alot of enegry your body will start save it otherwise you will fall down..
                                                                                                              If you take less energy your body wont panic and will let it go ..

Less you know more you happy .. But overall you need to know that sitting whole day front of your pc and making 1 hour crazy workout with such high BPM rates its not very healthy .. Especially if you eat alot of unhealthy shit ..

Try Pro-biotics to normalize it. Ppl with too much Candida have trouble lowering their % body fat. Dr. Atkins was starting to uncover this fact right b4 he died. The candida ends up mutating into a spore and stores itself in the fat cells.

                                                                                                                          My HR is in the 140-170 area and my jogging sessions last for 1-1.5 hours.

                                                                                                                          I have started jogging in the morning recently. I heard it's good for burning fat but in addition, it's a lot nicer. Air is cleaner, body is cleaner, not a lot of people...
                                                                                                                          i dont think "jogging" is necessarily a solution. my body adapts very quickly to any cardio i am doing unless i am pushing myself very hard and mixing it up and increasing the intensity.

                                                                                                                          the fact that you are asking porn webmasters advice for exercise suggests that you have not met too many porn webmasters !

                                                                                                                              They move all day without intensity.
                                                                                                                              Moving without too much intensity its normal for human..
                                                                                                                              If you all want to get more detailed information I can write it down here of course but its not needed. Less you know more you happy .. But overall you need to know that sitting whole day front of your pc and making 1 hour crazy workout with such high BPM rates its not very healthy .. Especially if you eat alot of unhealthy shit ..
                                                                                                                              its been tested that you burn more with a more intense workout, obviously not sprinting but there has to be intensity. really wanna lose weight you can do what some of us did to drop weight classes, run at a good fairly high pace with a garbage bag for a shirt. if you want to run around all day of course you'll lose weight but some people have a life?

                                                                                                                              if you're working out etc and eat unhealthy you're an idiot anyways so it really doesn't matter what you do. thats the people who complain they don't lose weight while eating a bag of cheezies.

And it's free....you can find all the info you need online-you don't have to buy a book, buy any supplements, etc. I'm sure it would help, but you don't have to. The only thing is that it is more expensive than eating regularly. That's the only reason I haven't hopped myself back on it....I have four kids to feed on a very tight budget, lol, so I wind up eating the cheap food myself-rice, bread, etc., which of course is HORRIBLE for me as a main dietary source of nutrition.

What has happened is that you have lost fat but gained more muscle from the increased exercise. So you have probably noticed that even though you have not lost a pound your clothes fit better because muscle takes up less room than fat.

                                                                                                                                                                                      give or take a couple of pounds. I ate whatever I wanted.
                                                                                                                                                                                      Anyway, not fat, but losing 10 pounds would be an improvement.

                                                                                                                                                                                      So three months ago I decided to lose some weight. I went from playing tennis once a week and jogging once a week to jogging three times a week and playing tennis twice (Also increased jogging distance from 5-6miles to 7-8 miles per day and speed). In addition, I started eating less in quantity and also less fat. I eat about 1,700 calories a day which consists of about 70% carbs, 20% protein and 10% fat.

                                                                                                                                                                                      Yet, for some bizzaar reason, three months later, sticking with this routine, I still weight 174 pounds. I don't think my body compesition has changed much (Maybe legs are a bit stronger, I make better jogging time now than I used to).

                                                                                                                                                                                      I enjoy it, so not planning on stopping, but shouldn't I be dropping some excess fat with this routine?!
