Just so everyone knows, not that anyone is reading this... but I (like many others I have been reading) am really frustrated with my progress. I started reading the Fat Loss Troubleshoot forum and am considering buying Leigh's book because I (like many others) upped my calories when I started NROL4W (not by a lot) and feel like I have gained weight. I definitely have gained strength, and have made some progress in my upper body, but once again, I'm stuck. This always happens. I make some minor changes, and some things change, and then I get frustrated...

I started swimming more this week because I am in training for my sprint triathlon, but I think the key for me is to be active at least 6 days a week and stay within the 1400-1600 calorie range.

I'm also on summer vacation (I'm a teacher) and most weeks I can dedicate every morning to the gym.

Looking at my typical day today in my Daily Plate log also showed that my ratios are off.

To get more protein, should I be having a protein shake everyday rather than just on the days I lift?

Should I ditch NROL4W all together, for now, and do Leigh's program?

I don't know... what to do, what to do...

Maybe some of the pros (Ginger, Bytsi, MissJane, KFisher, etc.) will stop by and give me some feedback.
