I am pretty frustrated lately, ladies. I need your help and/or opinions on what I'm doing that's NOT working.
For the past month I have been counting calories (weighing, measuring and logging) and hitting the gym 5x/week. I have averaged 1,820 calories in (which is under my BMR) and exercised for 1,795 minutes so far this month. I generally do 35-60 minutes of some form of cardio (elliptical, stair stepper, racquetball) every day and around 30 minutes of strength training every other day. I also play (non-competitive but still a workout) volleyball 2 times/week.
I have not lost even one. freaking. pound. this month. Not a single one. I know that a month isn't a long term experiment, and I'm not going to give up, but I am really discouraged. At my weight and activity level (in addition to the gym, I'm also SAHM to a 2 year old and a 9 month old) I should be losing weight.
Thoughts?
ETA: For the past couple of days I've kept my calories to 1500-1600 in hopes that it would help and I am going to bed really, really hungry. I can maybe do it on the days I don't work out but 1500 in particular leaves me starving at the end of the day.
