Help!!

So I hope someone can help me! I was banded in August 2011 and I am down about 60lbs. However, I haven't been able to lose anymore weight and I don't know why. I've been going to the gym 3-4 days a week for the last 2 months and I haven't seen the scale drop?? I've been wearing my fat burning watch to monitor my heart rate to see if I am in my fat burning zone but sometimes I feel that when I'm in my "fat burning zone" I don't get that good of a workout? Any opinions?!

Remember that when you are working out a lot you build muscle and muscle weighs more than fat, so you could be losing fat and gaining muscle and the scales not changing.

I would say you need to do 7 days a week. At least 30 minutes.

The fat burning zone is a bit of a myth. I'd say aim for a higher intensity workout , within what is safe and comfortable for you.

When you work out to the same routines your body gets used to it. Try changing up your excersize routine. Maybe add a Zumba class or an aqua fit class to change up your methods (:
