QuestionI am dieting, my diet consists of raisin bran cereal in the morning, a fruit before lunch, salad and baked chicken breast for lunch, fruit in the evening and at night raisin bran cereal.
I do taebo 5-6 days a week, and some weight lifting.
Why is it that I am gaining weight still?
AnswerDear Alana, Keep accurate records on the exact amount of food you are eating and try to keep your calories between 1500-1800 per day. You will have to read labels and measure portions. Raisin bran has a lot of carbohydrates compared to Special K. If you are eating it before bedtime, your body might be storing some as fat. Also when you lift weights, you might be losing fat and gaining muscle. Muscle is heavier than fat so your weight stays the same. Laura Kraemer,Slimkids.com
