I’ve been eating 1400 calories a day and doing 60 minutes on the elliptical machine along with sit ups on a stability ball most days of the week and I have lost 20 pounds since August but the past two months I have not lost any thing. Do I need to cut my calories down to 1200 a day and mix up my work-out? I’m thinking of using my new pilates dvds (25 minute total work out and 18 minute ab work out) every morning and doing the elliptical 4 days a week for 60 minutes… does that sound like enough or do I need more? I have a nutrionist but she never answers her e-mails and with the holidays going on it’s hard to get an appointment in.

I am average weight, but my abs are not flat. I go to karate 3 days a week and do lots of sit-ups, but that hasn’t worked. What else can I do. I want to do it naturally.
Seriously, it hurts! I just tried a shoulder stand and I’m pretty sure I pulled something, not to mention the way I almost broke my neck coming down, nor the way I crashed into the door while trying to get on my shoulders. I think I’ll just stick with sit-ups and push-ups.
I am almost 26 years old. I stand 5’9, about 135 (gaining). I have a really defined upper body but my lower body needs some more muscle. I can do almost 90 military push-ups in two minutes, 70 sit-ups, and run 2 miles in 14 minutes… if this is of use to anyone! I work out 4-5 days a week. I have been in good shape all my life. I was thinking about taking up Wushu but I am hearing that it is rather soft. I am not looking for a kill’em style, but I am looking for a style that will be a really good defense mechanism, and also give me spiritual, mental, and I guess “Tai Chi” like training. Would Kung Fu or Tai Kwon Do be good for me?
Thanks in advance everyone.
