i would like to think there's a right mix of protein and carbs that would be optimal for each person :) certain enzymes in meat or in veggies or fat when eaten in prescribed amounts will aid digestion and fat break-down, at the same time help nutrients from food become absorbed more efficiently--at least, I think that is the general philosohpy. :)

i'd been doing weights since i was 13--my brother made me a program and made me exercise when i get home from school. :) and then i got into running, and then boxing, and for 5 years now i've been doing bikram yoga. bikram yoga burns 7 calories per minute, so a 90 minute class is easily 630 calories lost, and it's both part-cardio part-strength training. i guess my point is i have always been active since i was very young, so i never really lost the muscle that i gained. :) it's that no matter what i do i still always have some form of flab that i can't get rid of.

there are other factors to calorie burn, e.g. sufficient sleep, which i have trouble with - hopefully the hormones in charge of this normalize as well with this program, so it's not really just weight loss that i'm after. :)

I think you may not be eating enough to fuel your activity which makes it harder for you to lose. Check out http://www.emma-leigh.com/basics_calorie_needs.html she's my nutritionist. Sorry to sound irritating, i just want people to know there's a better and easier way to lose weight. :)
