I FEEL LIKE I HAVE LOST MY FOCUS. I EXERSISE 4 DAYS A WEEK DOING ZUMBA, KICKBOXING AND WALK/RUN. I CAN FEEL MY LEGS AND REAREND TIGHTENING UP, BUT THE WEIGHT JUST STAYS AT 160.
I REALIZE THAT EATING AFTER 7 PM IS NOT HELPING ME..SO NO MORE LATE DINNERS FOR ME. EVERYONE ELSE MIGHT EAT LATE, BUT I WILL NOT DO IT. NO MORE CARBS FOR DINNER, AND VERY FEW FOR LUNCH!!!
I NEED TO MAKE CHANGE TO THIS BODY.

Definitly keep your diet in check, sounds like a good plan. Also realize that with the muscle growth you may be loosing fat still and staying the same weight, because you are gaining more muscle. It is a good idea to keep measurments. I know that when I started working out seriously I actually gained a few pounds back, but lost inches, so thats what really counts!
If you must love your neighbor as yourself, it is at least as fair to love yourself as your neighbor.

btw.............you dont gain muscle by working out you gain muscle by resting. You're overworking your body and i'm going to only guess you're not eating enough calories to fuel your body. Honestly what helped me is to switch from skim milk to whole milk and egg whites to whole eggs. Carbs are not bad and help with recovery. Carbs are not your enemy.

I find that sometimes I lose inches and not weight necessarily. That happens when you lose fat and gain muscle. Good luck!
Love the food that loves you back.
Take it one day at a time!

1. Don't follow the scale, it lies.
2. Use a measuring tape to measure different parts of your body and write them down.
3. Track everything you eat.
4. Carb Cycle- higher carbs on days you workout, lower carbs on days you don't.
5. Remind yourself that health is the main goal, not a scale number.

Need suggestions on healthy/low-calorie foods.
I'm reading this while eating some absolutely delightful fresh melon for breakfast. If the melon isn't soft enough on its own you could add it to a fruit smoothie.

Hmmm. Didn't realize plain yogurt was that high in carbs. I mentioned it because the friend who recommended it to me said her parents do it, and they are both on Atkins. I'm doing Paleo, but ...
