argh, gained 5 pounds!
I'm so disapointed with myself. I've been trying really hard, exercising every day, etc. and I still overeat, and end up gaining. I know it's not muscle because I measured myself. Part of it I think is the holidays, and the fact that I'm rather stressed out right now. I -might- not be eating enough, I've been trying to keep to 1000-1200 calories. I'm 14, 5' 6", and 176 pounds. I exercise for about 45 minutes several times a week(20-30 minuntes high-impact cardio, the rest stretching and situps/pushups etc.(not sure the technical name for those sorts of exercises)). I'm thinking I should boost my average calorie intake to 1400, is that about right? I eat every 3 hours or so 5-6 times a day, and try to include in each of those carbos, protein, and fruit/veggies. Any other suggestions for getting back on track? Thanks!
