[QUOTE="donnellysdogs, post: 825630, member: 17713"] How many carbs a day are you having? Are you having enough calories? I'm a size 8/10 and although I don't eat a lot (one meal of 12-50 ish carbs a day) I eat enough calories to sustain my weight. If I wanted to lose more weight I would actually have to eat more fat. If I want to gain weight I have to eat more carbs. As your BMI is **** good what size clothes are you wearing? I don't go necessarily by the weighing scales.. Although they are by the loo and I do jump on them everyday. I go by the size of clothes I wear, and more importantly the tone of my body. I am classified by all my GP's for years as "lean and mean"- because my tone is good. Are you toning up with your exercises? As with your BMI this is also important... Weight isn't as muscle is more heavy than fat with our bodies.. I am also a gardener so work my legs and arms hard, although I do very little other exercise besides walking. When I added more fat/protein in I lost 10lb in weeks that I didn't want or need to loose! Now I have a balanced, less dairy but more avocado's, olives, dressing etc I maintain my weight... [/QUOTE]
