Try to relax, stick to your eating plan and it will happen.

thanks for the support. i've been on a normal protein, low carb, low fat, low calorie/ vegetables, no sugar, no oil, no dairy diet have had problems though with the low carb part sometimes meat lean dumplings are irresisitible although they don't have much fat way too many carbs. although i never exceed my calorie restrictions i sometimes feel that the low carb diet is not sustainable and when i do eat more carbs i tend to jump up one pound or so instantly.

Low carb is not for everyone. Some people do well on just restricting calories. Keep trying till you find what works for you. You can do this.

yes good advice thanks. i'll try to experiment a little more with my diet because it is very difficult/not a good idea to follow a rigid diet and tends to make you want to stray from your original diet plan. i've been reading that low carbs is not a healthy sustainable diet and there should be a normal balance between protein,fat,carbs for a long term sustainable reduced calorie diet.

as you can tell i can attribute the weight drops and weight gains and plateaus to carb binging/carb deleting/ and eating foods where i cannnot eliminate the carbs such as dumplings, spaghetti.

i've started a full body weight training program 20 minutes a day 3 times per week at home with a pair of 20lb dumbells, in addition to my tennis workout and every other week( 7 days) 8hrs continous 5 mile walks on my job. i've read that the easiest way to increase bmr and lose fat is to increase muscle mass which increases bmr and helps burn fat.
