Physiology is a cruel mistress

I am still plugging away at the weight loss campaign and I am getting to the point where I may need some professional assitance to understand the way my body works.

I got down to 190 pounds and was excited.  This was going pretty well!  Now its time to really kick it up.  So without changing the diet at all I started working out at a stronger clip.  45 minutes on the machine instead of 30.  4 times a week instead of three.  Of course, a week of this brought exactly zero additional weight loss.

Discouraged I decided to take a break from working out.  Started eating a bit more.  Naturally, I dropped two and a half pounds in the next three days.  I’m confused.

I think this week I may try to ease back into a moderate workout schedule.  Couple times a week for 30 minutes.  I have learned however, that those who argue against weight being simply a calories in/calories out equation definitely have a point.
