I'll break down your little self-pitying hissy rant paragraph by paragraph since you LOVE attention.

I'm coming here b/c I'm so frustrated. I've done EVERYTHING people have said to do, or have already tried it. Stop being so BITCHY! I am in a vulnerable position here, asking for help. If I wanted to be abused, I'd go back to my ex., thank-you very f***ing much!  |
That isn't an argument sweetie, this is a forum and you brought up the topic about different macronutrients. If you want things to stay on topic, do it in a more polite manner than accuse me of arguing. You BROUGHT up questions about CARBS and Calories... so if the topic went that way, it's your fault. Don't be an ass about it. If you've done EVERYTHING you've done about it and LOST 3 lbs, how is this a failure? Because you have a VERY healthy BMI... you can't fit in your jeans?! Maybe, just maybe... that's going to be your build as you get older...

You have been helped, I have responded KINDLY several times to your repetitive posts. If you feel like you are being HURT... why do you keep coming back? I only asked you if you were fucking with us on this forum because you keep getting the same replies and/or post that you're losing weight and you want something from us we can't give you.

The only potentially BAD thing I do is I eat ice cream almost every night, as well as dark choc. for the antioxidents. BUT, if a cal is a cal, that should make no damn difference in terms of weight gain/loss, |
So you still have a PT and still not seeing results? Fire them... but your story makes ZERO sense since you posted back at the end of April about getting a Trainer and you came back in May saying you don't have results. I think I am quite justified in saying what I said.

Yeah, whatever, it's clear you have some sort of disconnect with society and your jeans. Don't believe everything you read/hear in the media... it's obvious you are easily lead down wrong paths of information. That comment had nothing to do with our president btw, which I could care less about your political views.

My BMI is 22.5 according to a breathing test I took. Same test said my metab. is over normal and I should eat b/t 1200-1400 cal a day to lose weight; and eat around 1800-2100 to maintain. Well it's been a month on 1300 cals. I gained that 3 lbs back too. Guess it was a fluke (big surprise). |
If you say you are eating 1300 calories and you eat 1800-2100 to maintain (which is a HUGE gap and it's clear you don't really understand the numbers behind any of it), than you are probably in too large of a deficit which has been said about 3 times in various threads to you. You body doesn't want to give up the weight... how about this, give up the chocolate and ice cream, because I guarantee you aren't recording your food accurately. I'd be willing to put a decent amount of money that you aren't weighing food with a scale.

A normal sane person wouldn't listen to this crap

You might want to change your cardio routine for something that is optimal for fat burning, like HIIT. I won't even bother to give you information on that (which you can find in SEVERAL locations around this forum, so help yourself for a change).
