Why it seems I'm unable to lose weight?
I'm 32 years old, 175cm (5 feet 9 inches)
4 months ago, when I was on a fast food and snacks diet and maxed out my weight at 225lbs I decided to cut the shit and eat healthy.
After three months of a low calorie diet without cheat days I managed to lose 20 pounds. So I decided to hit the gym.
I was feeling better than ever, clothes started to feel looser.
For the first three weeks I did cardiovascular workouts only (30 minutes average, 4 days a week), and obviously kept on eating healthy.
No weight loss. But an evident fat loss occurred, I feel great and more in shape than in, say, 10 years.
But I'm still way overweight, ran my first 5k a couple weeks ago, I did great but my lower legs always seem to hurt after running, not after elliptical or weight training, just running.
205 pounds is still a lot for my height, I recently started to use a fat burner and man I sweat a river now in the workouts, but still, and again, no weight loss.
I obviously have to pay a visit to the doctor, but wanted to ask here if anyone has experienced a similar thing, what was it and how did you dealt with it.
Thanks!
