Help, please!!!
Hello. This my first post on this board! Woohoo. It seems like there are a lot of experts here, which is great for me!
Here's the long story short: Hubby and I have been eating a low carb/ no processed foods diet for 2 years. We started in order to improve health and straighten out my hormones so that we could have a baby. Both goals accomplished, we're proud to say! The thing is, my weight and size haven't really changed. I am extremely active (jump rope 3-5 times a week for 20-30 min, weights 3 days a week, yoga and Pilates) and quite muscular, but there is this layer of jiggle covering my muscles, especially in the belly area. I WANT IT GONE!!!! For the first time in my life, I'd love to wear a two piece suit to the pool this summer!!!!!!
So, do I need to watch my calories in addition to my carbs? I drink 3-4 liters of water a day, and for the past 3 weeks I have been eating 20g carbs or less per day, and still - no change. However, my diet has been very high in fat - I love olive oil and cheese!
135 is the Dr. recommended weight for me, I'd love to see myself at 125 (currently 150)
Help! Any suggestions?????
