[Anonymous]

Soo i have been losing weight since about May and have really changed my lifestyle around with eating and working out. I have lost a total of about 30 pounds so far which im soo pleased about. But... I have hit a plateau with losing weight i have been stuck at the same weight since the start of September.. and i have changed my workouts and have started to swith up some meals to see if the weight would budge.. it budged a little bit but im so frustrated with being stuck.. Any tips? Please!!

Stress might prevent you from losing fat. Try to get al the very least 8 hours of sleep a night. Drink lots of water to prevent water retention. Switch from cardio to HIIT (it's much superior). Cut down on carbs but not on fats. Some fatty acids actually help with losing body fat.

Hmm... Ok if you're on a diet, I would recommend not staying on the diet. I am 127 lbs and 5'8". I don't exercise much at all. All I eat is a bowl of oatmeal in the morning loaded with blueberries, raspberries, banana, raisins, craisins, cinnamon, chia seeds, coconut flakes, and walnuts. I have an egg with oregano and hot pepper flakes for lunch. And for dinner is fish or chicken, baked or grilled, with sweet potatoes and vegetables. If I need a snack in the day, I'll have a clif bar, yogurt, fruit, or nori (Japanese seaweed). And I've never had a weight problem. You really can't eat too much of these foods. They are all healthy for you.

Do not eat cheese or pastas. Stay away from white flour things. No candy or cake or sweets. Alcohol is empty calories as well. No bacon. Get lean meat at the supermarket if you are getting beef.

Yeah i don't really eat any sort of bread or anything like that, maybe once a week with a cheat meal but they are never really unhealthy cheat meals. I definitely have gained a lot of muscle from my workouts with weight training, which maybe thats what the scale is measuring.. So i might cut back on weight training and stick to cardio to try and drop some of the fat. Thankyou :)
