No weight loss...why is this happening?

Packeteer

I have a few tips that really helped me with some not too majoy weight loss.

First of all is track everythign you eat. Everything, i mean every single thing. No you cant skip things becuase you don't want them to count. I dont know if i can hammer this home hard enough becuase it is one of the biggest ways people who are really working hard dont get results.

With that said, leave some room in your calories per day to cheat. We usually call that "descretionary calories". Maybe leave 200 calories hanging that you can snack whenever you didn't get full from your meal or are hungry between meals.

Onto meals; eat a meal every 3 hours. They will obviously be smal meals. Eat breakfast, every day. A day you dont eat breakfast is a day your resting metabolism plummets and you almost garunteed won't lose any weight. Even if you dont have an apetite in the morning you must eat. This is preferably one of your larger meals.

As for meal size it is going to be small so you need to find a way to feel full. #1 tip for me is lots and lots of fiber. Fiber is a carb that your body cant get an calories out of. It makes you feel full but cant turn into fat. Eat LOTS of whole grains and fiber. If you are biking a lot you want to eat lots of carbs but many people like bodybuilders eat a high fat diet. Bodybuilders are one part of the population who are constantly going on weight loss plans and have a lot of experience. Fat makes you feel full but they also try to lose weight without doing cardio like biking. So if your biking you might want 40% carbs and 30-30 split with the rest.
