[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]All this still does not explain how a person eliminating 500 calories per day would not lose weight over a 3 month period, especially when adding in the 4x week power walking.

Seems that it would not matter if a person is 5-2 or 5-11, or if one weighed 217 or 199.  500 calories less per day should result in some weight loss over a 3-month period. That is a lot of calories to give up. [/quote]

It isn’t. But if a person isn’t truly weighing their food and measuring, they probably THINK they cut 500 when they didn’t. [/quote]

Ding! Ding! Ding!

People are pretty bad at truly tracking calories in terms of being 100% accurate and consistent. They think that eating "healthy" is enough but if you are not weighting and measuring everything and tracking it you are very likely under estimating calories. They also tend to use exercise as an excuse to eat a little more ("I worked out today i can eat X)  when in reality they did not really burn that many extra calories.

At the end of the day it will always come down to calories, if you are not losing weight you are eating too many calories. [/quote]
