Alright guys, I'm obese, 5'2" and as of this morning 200.6 lb.
Gah. I have been fat all my life, got down to 170, then went on anti depressants (off now), and got up to 198. I have been trying calorie counting, which works, except, I have this problem with eating too much. When I can manage to keep my calories lower, I do fine, however...
I wanted to start exercising too. I've started doing the P90X work outs, I am not following their nutrition plan. I am trying to keep my calories between 1200-1500 per day.
I'm doing the lean work out as it was suggested to me to start off with. I've been doing it a week and this morning I weighed and found that I have actually gained a couple pounds.
I am frustrated and don't quite understand.
Am I building muscle already? A week doesn't sound like a whole lot of time to be building muscle in. My husband is pushing me to just keep going on with it,
it makes me want to choke his skinny little neck. This is a really intense work out for not losing any weight, I just don't know if it's worth it, I need some encouragement, some feedback and maybe some of you who have used it can share your results?
