Is it my age? I'm trying so hard to lose weight and it's just not working - last year I went up and down by 4-5lb at a time every couple of months, always putting any weight I lost back on, and this year it's just not shifting at all.
I'm short and about 20lb overweight, and I don't think my goals are unrealistic- I just want to be a size ten, which at 5'2" usually still makes me slightly overweight (but liveable). I'm trying to be sensible and do it in a sustainable way.
I've cut down on milky coffee, toast and butter, cheese, and pasta. Those are the things I was eating too much of, really. I did c25k last year and am now trying to go running 3x a week (I'm not fast but it's way more than I was doing before).
I'm tracking on MFP and struggling to stay below 1200, and even then I think that may be too much for my height.
I'm sad and chubby and worried I'll never lose the weight.
