I’ve been going to the gym for 11 weeks, and Iv’e lost 15 pounds. I used to weigh 145lbs and now I weigh 130, and I am 5’1. My target goal weight was 135 but now I see that I am still losing more weight. I exercise 4 times weekly, and do intensive cardio workouts after each session. I reduced my calorie intake, eliminated fruit drinks, and tried eating more protein like lean meats, eggs, etc. but I still would eat bread but whole grain, or brown rice, or whole wheat pasta but I always measured portions. Iv’e noticed a big difference in my stomach, but I still have that lower pouch. Should I eliminate the rice, and bread completely even if it is whole grain or brown rice. And what would you say is a reasonable consumption of sugar for a person of my weight and height, because I have reduced my consumption of sugar tremendously but I don’t know if I should take it a step further.

Are diet snack bars bad for you also? For example Special K granola Bars?

Thank You

I am 5’4 and 108lbs. No matter what I eat I can’t gain weight and I’m stuck with this weight which is low for my height. And I am in my late 20s and even after giving birth my weight dropped fast. I consume a lot of sugars and never watch wat I eat. The problem is that if I do and eat healthier my weight drops and I don’t want that. My mom has the same metabolism and weights the same as in her 20s so it is in my genes. What I need is to tone my stomach but I don’t want to lose weight by cutting all the sugars. What can I do? Right now my only exercise is dancing and I dance 3 to 4 times a week for about an hour. Thanks in advance.

Thank You.

Thanks a lot!!!!!!!!!!
