I am trying to lose but I have been all over the place with food. I feel I need to get back to normal food and be in control. The be in control has been tough and I have put a few pounds on. This has scared me that I can't balance my weight without Exante....

i have also reduced my exercise doing closer to 10-15 miles a week rather then +20. The treadmill will help with this.

why is life so hard?

I wish?!

Hopefully with a few weeks counting cals rather than carbs will see the weight start to come off again. It's about rebalancing the glycogen I think? Xxx

Hi Shrimp. I imagine it will take time for your body to adjust. I've just looked in my calorie carb and fat bible and it says that a very active 10 stone woman, aged 30 to 60, needs a calorie balance of 2441 to maintain. (It's 2034 for moderately active, 1763 for moderately sedentary and 1627 for very sedentary). To lose 1/2 lb per week you have to reduce this by 250, 1 lb per week by 500, 1.5 lb per week 750 and 2 lb per week 1,000. I can't see how you won't lose weight if you keep having balances of only 602.
