The reason why i asked this question was In July i took up an office job and made horrible diet decisions and basically never worked out. Gained 40lbs. Used to be toned at 210lbs. When i quit in December i was 250lbs, and used to always be tired, not feel like doing anything. But as months passed on i feel a lot more energetic, and i am a lot more active, and my diet is great (veggies, fruits and a lot of lean meats such as chicken) but my weight is still at 250lbs, so i really dont get it. I have been working out daily for 2 weeks so far. 30 min weight lifting, 30 min treadmill at max incline, cant run due to multiple knee dislocations that had happend since i was 16. Anyone know why the increase of energy over the months?

Your body is telling you your doing something right. You said your diet is great and your working out. You may not be losing weight because muscle weighs more than fat. So if your gaining muscle and losing fat it wouldn't show on your scale. Your body is telling you its working. Keep it up. You will see the changes in the way you feel and the way your cloths might fit. Don't always look to the scale. Your body is a great indicator of how your doing. People just don;t always listen to it. Also you don't need to run on the treadmill. Just extend your workout time. You don't even have to put your climb on max but keep track of your heart rate. Your doing good just keep up the good work.
