First, run more. Run daily, or at least 5 days a week. Also do some other workouts, such as weight training, bodyweight circuits etc. Finally, clean up the diet - ditch all junk food, reduce alcohol, eat good quality carbs and lean proteins. Hi Richard.

If you stop losing weight (fat) then it simply means that your body has reached a balance - what you eat provides your body with the energy is requires to maintain itself at your current level of activity. To lose more fat something has to change again. Hi Lindley, how much exercise are you doing each day, and have you modified your diet?

So I started jogging. I gained a few pounds, but over all looking fitter. After about a month I cut back on my jogging and started going back to the gym...and I've gained 15lbs. Now im running six days a week, eating healthy, and going to the gym. So why am I not losing any weight anymore? Hi,

Ensure that you eat a healthy diet and increase protein intake too to help muscles develop. You should also consider doing some <a href="http://www.motleyhealth.com/fitness/best-bodyweight-exercises-for-weight-loss">bodyweight exercises</a> a couple times a week to help develop some general, all round strength.

It sounds like you are making good progress with a steady and healthy weight loss. I would just carry on as you are for now, working on getting fitter, and if you hit a plateau start to think about additional exercise and modifications to your diet. But for now, if the system is working, don't change it. Hi Jeff, only time will tell really. It sounds like you are making good progress with a steady and healthy weight loss.
