So I am constantly torn between doing exercise and dieting or just dieting. When I exercise I never lose any weight even combined with being super good and being religious with my 5:2. Even though I know that I am toning up I really struggle when I don't see the scales dropping. I am now at what I thought I wanted to be as my target weight 9:7 but I have this psychological block around seeing the scales go down and sometimes they go up! Why is it other people still exercise and lose weight and I can't? Any tips on how I can get past the emphasis on the scales as I really enjoy exercise but it's this pathetic cycle of losing weight starting to exercise and then panicking when I don't lose or gain a pound. Any tips or advice would be great!
