More exercise, less weight loss. Help!
hi all,
Well I started out on a 1600 calorie a day diet, which has worked very well for me in the past. For the first month, I lost about 5 pounds, which was great. Then I upped my exercise, doing more lifting, and started spinning classes three times a week, one of them is a two hour class. I eat back some of my calories (eating some or all of my calories has worked well in the past to, and by past, I mean a year ago). In the last month I have lost absolutely nothing.
I'm going to wait another week (it's almost TOM) and then try something else.
I don't buy that it's gaining muscle, because you should still lose a pound or two in a month, even if you are gaining muscle, right? Also, my clothes still fit the same.
Please help, has anyone experienced this? Any ideas?
