And hired a dietician.  My workouts have been steady since last Oct. and I’ve seen definite gains in strength, endurance and health…but darn it, I haven’t dropped an inch since last November!  I’m hoping this lady will be able to help me get on the right track.  We’re starting with a 6 meal plan of, 1900 calories, 50% Carb, 25% Protein and 25% Fat.  So far, I’ve been 4 days in a row with breakfast and I’ve managed to eat all but one or two of the meals.  It’s actually an accomplishment for me.  I used to not eat until around 4:00pm.  I simply wasn’t hungry.  She said this was normal because I managed to train my body not to be hungry.  So now we’re training it to be hungry in the morning and less so at night.  As a motivation to eat breakfast everyday, I have a picture of a Sumo Wrestler on the mirror in my bedroom with the caption "Did you Eat Breakfast Today?" to remind me to force myself to break the habit of not eating…turns out Sumo Wrestlers don’t eat until supper time too…explains why I can’t shed the fat…some loopy starvation/storing calorie thing…yikes. 
I’m happy I’m working with her.  We’re going to try this plan for a month, re-evaluate and adjust until I find something that works with my body. 
Whew, I feel like hope is finally here.
