I am 45 and only need to lose about 15 pounds. I am 5.3 150 pounds. Been working with a trainer for 4 months now! it's our 5th month. no change in my wt yet but I have built a lot of muscle. Now..I started out eating 1,200 and now I am experimenting and thinking maybe in the 3rd month i should be eating a bit more on the days i train, (3 days a week for 1 hr either chest and back,legs, or arms followed by 20 minutes of cardio) I also do cardio 3days a week at the gym. doing elliptical. or tread mill or arc machine or recumbent bike for 1 hr so i work out 6 days a week. I see changes in my body..by inches lost. but it's taking so long!!!! is it something to do with my metabolism? ok so for a 45 yr old woman, 5.3 150 pounds how much am i supposed to eat a day? is 1,500 on training days suffice? or is it too much? i eat very healthy btw..not more than 30% of fat intake for the day.

Help!!! how do i lose fat??? will it take more time? like maybe another 3 to 6 months with more cardio???
