I follow a regular exercise regime and go to the gym at least 4 nights a week - I cannot seem to lose weight and maintain the same weight all the time. Reading your article has made me re-assess what I am doing as at one stage I was having a shake to compensate for my evening meal because I was not getting home until 7.45pm after being at the gym. I previously ate a meal when arriving home but thought it was too late to be eating so substituted for a shake. The same for breakfast, I have a large bowl of cereal - now realise I need a smaller bowl but to also add fruit etc.
I often take only a yoghurt or piece of fruit for mid morning/afternoon, another downfall.
I do not take supplements - so it looks like I am falling down in many areas and could possibly explain why I am not losing weight. For my height 5'2" I weigh 60 kgs and ideally should weight 55 kgs so I am trying to lose 5 kgs.
I will definitely change my eating habits and see how I go.
Thanks for all your tips.
