Sick of building muscle....want to loose instead of gain
My New Year's Resolution was the same as many. It involved leading a healthier lifestyle and loosing a couple of lbs. This meant switching to frozen yogurt instead of ice cream, no more bad starches, taking vitamins and mixing in 30 minutes of exercise at least 5 days a week. My pre wedding weight was 123 (in november), which is pretty decent for someone who's 5`2 with a medium-large bone structure. About a week and a half after all the wedding festivities I was up to 129...which still isn't bad, but I didn't want to gain any more because I know from experience that it's a pain in the but to get the weight off (about three years ago I used to weight 155). Anyways, 4 weeks ago I started to exercise and eat better. I'm not lifting weights....just doing 30 minutes of aerobic exercise. One would think that the lbs would come off, right? Wrong! I'm up to 133. What am I doing wrong?! ahhh!!! Any suggestions from any JU fitness experts?
