QUESTION: What are some medical problems that can prevent weight loss?
STORY: I've been trying to lose these 20-30lbs for years. Two years ago I joined a gym. 30mins every other day of exercise didn't work, I upped it to 30 mins everyday--still nothing. Eventually I started doing an hour a day and after that TWO hours a day (was doing the spinning/cycling classes mainly, but also step and kickboxing and bodyworks). NOTHING WORKED. I also teach karate on the side.
In fear of overexercising, I cut it back to 30 mins a day of just running. Still have yet to drop a pound OR LOSE AN INCH off my waist. My diet is great... no fastfood, sugary stuff, fruit juice, soda, etc. 90% a wide variety of veggies and beans (I'm a vegetarian), cottage cheese, some fruit, protein supplement, and some whole grains. I split my meals up into 6 a day to keep my metabolism up.
I'm at a lost of words. I don't know what else to do.
