Go here to break your plateau

Adrian Bryant | 10.02.09 - 4:05 pm

Hi,
I'm about 5'8 weighing 215lbs. working my way down to at least 180lb of lean muscle. I started at 240 doing a low-carb diet and about 20min of cardio with a full workout, and lately i've been pumping up the cardio to 40min and up (as long as i can go for).

Unfortunately, I find myself at a plateau right now, and I wanted to know if you had any recommendations as far as an alternate diet plan and workout routine?

Hey Adrian, I was wondering, would eating 5 apples, 5 carrots and about 200g of snow peas be over-eating? Or can you really eat as much fruit as you want without fear of putting on weight?

Only check the scale every 1-to-2 weeks - you'll drive yoursefl crazy checking it daily.

You should only expect to lose 1-2 pounds a week at your weight & height

I like the suggestion to eat 1 whole raw vegetable before a meal.
What are some you personally eat?
I'm bored with my usual red bell pepper.

Hello,

I will eat corn green beans and carrots if they are soft.. I do not like fish either.. Im so picky! I really need a mean outline that I like.. please help

Beth | 08.18.09 - 5:48 pm

Just curious

that doesnt matter 6, 8 or 9pm - the thing that matters is total calories + the total activity you do to lose weight.

The main reason 5 meals is better is because bigger meals tend to produce more insulin which promotes fat storage but dont even worry about that TOO much if you keep your diet & caloreis in check

Adrian Bryant | 08.09.09 - 9:11 pm

Thanks for your responses. What is the latest time I should eat my last meal? I've heard you shouldn't eat after 8, then I heard it's after 6pm.

Just curious | 08.08.09 - 10:28 pm

Just curious

mashed pototoes are okay

ANy weight scale will do as long as it helps you accurately keep track of total food calories

If you can't eat 5 meals - you can divide all of your calories into 3 bigger meals and doing that wont hinder your weight loss but...

If you do run into weight loss troubles then switching back to 5 smaller meals may certainly help

Adrian Bryant | 08.08.09 - 2:08 pm

Should mashed potatoes be avoided while losing weight?


Another question...sorry...I'm a teacher and it's hard to stop and eat more than once a day. According to the weight calculator I need to eat no more than 296 calories per meal 5 times a day. What advice can you give to a person than can't stop and eat no more than one time during work hours? I eat breakfast before going to work at 7am and lunch while i'm there around 12pm so will I have to eat again around 4pm, 7pm and 10pm???

I am 17 years old finishing my last year in high school. My dream is just to have the perfect prom dress ,but i have a little extra baggage on my hips and around my stomach. Is there any tips you can give me to lower my weight from 175?

keykey | 08.06.09 - 9:00 pm

Shawn

YOu are doing nothing wrong.

Weights are a good thing

You may have put on some muscle weight and even if you gained 3 pounds of muscle - it'll make you look 3 pounds skinnier so in that case...

you shouldn't worry about the scale

Adrian Bryant | 08.04.09 - 7:44 pm

I started my weight lose journey at 185 pounds. I lost 25 pounds with in 2 months. I recently added weights to my exercise plan and I gain 3 pounds back. should I not use the weights? My goal weight is 135 to 140 pounds. I am 28 pounds away. What am I doing wrong?

Terri

fried fish is still okay but to get a flatter stomach means you need to eat the right amount of calories to lose weight and exercise so basically...

let's say you can only have 300 calories per meal to lose fat - 1 piece of fired fish may be 300 cals and that's all you can have in that meal but...

You can eat baked fish + more food before reaching 300 cals

Adrian Bryant | 07.26.09 - 12:58 am

My goals are to flatten my stomach and tone all other areas. So, would it be best to stay away from fried fish altogether? This is in response to your email to me below.

Terri

It depends on what your goals are.

Generally - fish is just fine but baked is better because of less fat and I'm not saying FAT IS BAD but...

When eating fat - you cant eat too much fat without eating TOO much calories which will make it harder for you to lose weight but...

if trying to build muscle - then fried or baked will also be fine but again - with fried/fatty fish...

you cant eat too much fried fish without consuming TOO many calories

I've been eating a lot of fish lately. My question is even if it's fried fish is it ok? I do eat baked fish sometimes but prefer fried. I was told fish is fish no matter how you eat it. Is that true?

Terri | 07.23.09 - 10:13 am

carolyn4236

what kind of protein are you eating?

maybe switching over to leaner protiens like fish or chicken will solve the cholesterol problem

Adrian Bryant | 07.18.09 - 10:09 pm

Hello Adrian,

I am a 43 yr old woman who has become really commited to weight loss in the past 2 months. I have punched up exercise (strength training, walking/running and kickboxing). I really enjoy it. Where I am falling short is my diet. I was informed on yesterday that I have slightly elevated levels of cholesterol (how can that be?!). I was told it may be due to the fact that I eat protein in large amounts (more than 3 x per day). Please help! I am willing to try new foods, but am allergic to milk products and I don't like tomatoes.

I've heard the same thing but those aritcles recommend you only eat a "hershey kiss" size amount of chocaltate a day and...

Adrian Bryant | 07.09.09 - 4:16 pm
