Hello, everybody.
I have always wanted to join a weight loss community but never got around to it. I have been here a few times lurking around a bit but decided I would actually join today.
I have been losing weight for a while now but it has suddenly stopped. I figured I had everything under control but it's been 2 weeks and I haven't even lost 1 pound. I have eaten and exercised the same amount for the last 3 months I don't know why it would suddenly stop now. I was hoping I could get some advice on the subject.
I am male, 21 years old, 5'10". I used to weigh 245 but lost around 46 pounds. I am now 199 / 200ish pounds. I weight lift every other day for about 30 minutes. I use a recumbent exercise bike for 1 to 2 hours every single day (the bike says about 700 - 1000 calories burned after my work outs). I consume 1200 calories every day (though after reading a lot of the posts and stickies, I'm starting to think that may be a bit low).
A few problems I think that may be causing problems: I do the same exact work out for weight lifting every other day. I do the same exact exercise, recumbent biking, every single day. I eat the exact same food every single day. The food I consume consits of healthy choice turkey dogs, light bread, and one carb ketchup. I eat that and pretty much nothing else for every meal, mainly because it's easy for me to count. I drink Sugar Free lemonade (10 calories each) and water every day, though not much water.
Can anybody give me any advice as to why I have not lost any weight in the past 2 weeks when I had been losing 2 - 4 pounds a week before I hit 200?
I would appreciate any help or observations.
