Definitely don't give up. There are a number of factors involved in losing weight. You could be exercising too much or too little. You could be eating too much or not enough. You could be eating the wrong foods for your body. Have you talked to your doctor, a personal trainer, or a nutritionist? Any one of them could help you evaluate what you've been doing and offer suggestions to make it work.

most people with a weight problem think that exercise and , to some extent , starvation will help them lose weight. The real cause of over weight, and to a large extent, underweight, is that the stomach cannot absorb the nutrients in the food that is eaten, effectively and so the body stores excess food as fat, in overweight people.There is a very good american based nutrition herbal food supplement company, whose product cleans out the stomach and allows good nutrition absorbtion to take place and the results are amazing for weight loss.

What do you call eating right exactly?
Your metabolism (the amount of calories your body burns each day) involves three key things:
1. Basic Needs -- This is known as your basal metabolic rate and covers the calories needed to sustain vital body functions; fuel for organs, breathing, circulating blood, adjusting hormone levels, plus growing and repairing cells. Typically, a person's basal metabolic rate makes up 66 to 75% of the total calories the body requires for the day.
2. Digestion and Absorption of Food -- About 10% of your day's calories go towards the digestion and absorption of the food you eat. It's ironic that you actually need calories to burn calories.
3. Physical Activity -- Exercise, depending upon how active you are each day, accounts for the remainder of calories burned.

OF COURSE NOT!! You shouldn't give up just cos you haven't lost weight YET. Think about the other benefits you get from exercising and eating right - like reducing your risk of getting heart disease, diabetes etc.

Well maybe you don't do the right excercise. In order to turn fat into muscle, you have to do weight training. do you do that. do cardio at least 45 minutes 4 days a week and weight training at least 2 to3 days a week.
