I am so frustrated. I have been back on Weight Watchers and also tried just counting my calories and fat, really watching what I eat...I can't lose a single frikkin pound!!! Is anyone else finding this? What did you do to start the weight loss? I can gain very easily, but can't take it off!!

Hi, I've been exercising, I cut out breads and soda, I eat really healthy and I can't lose anything either. I will lose 3 or 3 and 1/2 pounds and just gain it back again, this has been an ongoing cycle with me and I am very down and frustrated by it. I don't know what to do, I guess we need to just keep at it and maybe in the long run we will lose the weight, but I know how depressing this is. Good Luck to you.

Hi
I'm having the same problem I have been walking for 30 mins 4 times a week
watching what I eat, not eating after 9-pm and the scale stays the same
I'm actually going to see a dietician next week because there is diabetes in the family so I'm hoping she can help! any good tips I will pass them on

yes, please pass them on. I think it is all due to this hormonal imbalance, but I just can't understand if I eat less, I should lose weight. Could this be due to anything else??

I'm feeling fat and frumpy! I'm only 40, but have gained in two years approximately 15lbs. It's driving me crazy. No wonder so many women turn to anorexia etc. What can I do besides the lifestyle change, it doesn't seem to help right now.
