Anyway i got bored of that and hit a plateau so ive been going gym for twice a week for the last couple weeks and still have had no more weightloss even round my waist im still at 39 inches. Any suggestions on how to get back on the weightloss wagon

Any ideas on whats going on???? also im thinking about doing that excercise where u lie on ure bak and raise ure feet 6 inches off the ground and bring them to your chest, i think its called a leg lift, before i got to bed will this help or speed up my aim to have a slim stomach.

Spot reduction won't work, the leg lift is a part of a whole, but don't do it just before bed. -------------- ----------------------------------- Getting there... one kg at a time... -----------------------------------

Seems like your fat intake is probably low, and I'd still like to see more protein in there. -------------- SQUAT MORE ~Jesse Marunde Mortal by birth. Strongman by the grace of god.

Basically pig out, eat non diet foods, and much more than you normally would for a 24 hour period. This will help bring certain hormone levels back to normal and undo some of the damage. Are you doing anything other than HIIT? -------------- SQUAT MORE ~Jesse Marunde Mortal by birth. Strongman by the grace of god. Blood Guts Sweat Chalk
