shedding the fat

[jennstar]

I have always been into excercise but just really starting to get serious about it i am 5'5 and 125 pounds i have always had a muscular physique even when not working out i have been into it for about 2 months i wake up in the morning do intense cardio on an empty stomach for 30 min every day and in the evening i do weight training for about an hour my diet is really good i eat about 6 times per day barley any carbs high protein but for some reason it is so hard to get the fat off i even take the exenadrine to help any suggestions on what to do to shed the extra pounds.

The best tip I've gotten from these fine ladies is a simple one: Lift more weight. Lift as much as you can safly, keep stepping it up. You body will burn more calories and more fat.

are you counting calories? for a cutting diet i would start off with 15 calories per lb. of body weight, per day, makign sure to eat about 1 gram of protein per pound of body weight. don't go below 12 calories per pound, otherwise your metabolism drops. if you have a naturally muscular physique, count yourself lucky. how long have you been on the xenadrine? it took me a few days to see results from e/c/a. don't try to drop more than a pound or so a week, too fast a drop could send the body into shock and make it preserve fat all it can. that's just what i've heard...

I eat 1300-1800 a day, if I eat more than 1500 I make it less than %15 carbs. I'm wondering if this is a little much? (I weigh 110)
