Not sure what I'm doing
. . . .but here goes.
I read an interesting article last night about set points and weight. I was at a set point for years in which I finally broke and now I am at another one. What this means is not matter how much I exercise and eat right, my weight just stays the same.
I have been eating low carb for a while now and for the last several weeks I have not moved an inch to sticking to my plan. I exercise a lot - 1 to 2 hours a day. I usually only miss a day when my body give me a signal that it needs to recup.
Anyway - my new plan is to stick with the diet/exercise until I can break the next set point. I'm tracking it - it has been 5 weeks since the scales have not moved AGAIN.
I don't know if I am using this site correctly, but it looks like what I have been looking for for some time.
