[quote=Anonymous]If consistency is a challenge have you considered doing a workout challenge through an online program. I really like Caroline Girvan's Iron program for this -- it's 5 days a week for 6 weeks and focuses on lifting heavy (though you can add on cardio routines to balance out your workouts -- she has recommended add ons). The whole program is on YouTube and you can take it to the gym with you. You can print out the calendar and literally check off the workouts as you go through it. And yeah ditch the crazy fad diets! You probably already know what you need nutritionally. If you work out regularl I bet one thing that happens is that you try to eat less than you need for the workouts you're doing and then you binge on foods that aren't helping with the weight loss because you are so hungry. Instead try accepting that you need a certain amount of calories in order to do your workouts but meal plan so those calories come from efficient meals with lean proteins and whole grains and lots of veggies. Doing Sunday meal planning where you prep all your veggies for the week plus plan you proteins and how you'll put the meals together can help a lot to avoid just hitting a wall and eating whatever because you're hungry and tired.[/quote]
