Losing Weight Quickly

Amander asked:


I’m 18 years old and 5′2″. I recently went on a diet and exercise plan. I went from 130 to 105 in about 3 months! I would like to know the best way to maintain and stop losing weight?

I feel like I should lose weight, but I am not sure how to do this without losing muscle. I weigh 148 pounds and am 5′8. I run at least eight miles a day and excercise twice a day. I also eat very healthy (am a vegetarian), but don’t eat very much anyway.

Kate Winter asked:


For most of my life, I have been blessed with a fast metabolism. When I hit 28, it seems like my metabolism just died and I gained a lot of weight (I have no medical problems). I am on a healthy portion-controlled diet, I exercise and I have been doing OK. I lost three pants sizes. Today I got a passport photo taken and nearly lost it. I looked extremely overweight in the photo and feel so discouraged. I just want to give up. It seems like my best effort is for nothing. I work so hard and the results seem so slow and dismal. Is losing weight like this for everyone?
