ahhhhhh,,,,
i dont understand this completely but in general in almost every human being overall muscles does weigh more than fat. if a person got 20% of body fat and he weighs 100Kg that mean 80Kg is muscle and rest is fat
BUT...
a kg of muscle is equal to a kg of fat (even inside the body) 1kg of led=1kg of rye.

Re: STUCK

before starting your whole workout routine did you took your measurements. mainly waist(at full stretch), hips and thighs (the areas where most fat is stored). again 10 days is too soon to tell whether someone is plateaued or not..

Re: STUCK

Invest in a sweat suit, u can buy them off of ebay for quite cheap. or alternatively wear black bags :s

something like this: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/NEW-PRO-EXERCISE-SAUNA-SWEAT-SUIT-1ST-CLASS-POSTAGE-/290401198535?cmd=ViewItem&pt=UK_Sporting_Goods_Exercise_Fitness_Fitness_Accessories_ET&hash=item439d42a1c7

10 days is not enough time in my opinion. For any diet or routine to start showing results it takes at least 3 weeks. If you're young, two days, lol. If you're older, 3 weeks. Yes, age makes a difference. :( A slower metabolism is to blame for that. There are of course exceptions to this rule...some people shed weight miraculously...like its no problem at any age. But the general rule is, with age your metabolism slows down.

^ This is very much a possibility. I guess your body has stopped working hard and has gotten very comfortable with the current routine.

Adddd the protein njgal! Fish is the best!

The HIIT is a good idea...most spinning and cardio classes are conducted that way too.

njgal, I know you want to see results because you're working so hard but you have to be patient. Some people find it harddddd to lose weight after pregnancies. So, my advice is...do not get distracted by the scale. Put it away for now. I want you to keep working towards your goal but do not even think about checking your weight until you've given yourself at least a month on your current regimen.

One month minimum.

I eat a lot of subzi - besides brocolli and asparagus. How many servings of vegetables do you need in a day?

Thanks for words of encourgament and wisdom Reha . I have lost 9 and since beach season is around the corner I would love to lose another 7-9.

I took maroush's advice and ditched the running yesterday and did the stationary bike. (which I thought was wussy before). I had a crazy sweaty workout. I almost died.

So I'll switch it up a notch and hope that the scale budges.

I can't do without my scale. I am a numbers gal and it motivates me to work out harder
