Re: About the plateau/starvation mode theory....

I am so glad I am not the only one experiencing this. But why isn't there an answer?? I exercise 5 days a week (aim for at least an hour a day but at least 30) and watch my calories yet the scale refuses to move. I have recently bought 2 "metabolism" booster books in search of some insight. I increased my exercise and that almost killed me b/c I started getting so exhausted and muscles ached alot trying to do more pkus work 8 hours a day & take care of other things throughout the week. I cannot get an answer as to why this is happening to me.It is not like I am pigging out on Burger King, or whatever else and laying around doing nothing. I do too much for the scale not to move. Although I have not gained, I am doing entirely too much to just maintain. I too don't know whether to eat more/less, exercise more/less. Should not be this complicated. It's like a screwed up Rubiks cube that is unsolvable.
