Q: I run over 6 miles every day and have dropped from 220+ to 190 pounds, but lately I've stopped losing weight despite not even eating very much. Please help!

A: Congratulations on your weight loss! It sounds like now you are at a point where your metabolism is very low because you are putting a lot of stress on your body with running, but not providing sufficient nourishment in food. I recommend you cut down running to no more than 3-4 miles per day two or three days a week. You should simultaneously start weight training as described in this article and start eating more as described here. Gradually with more food intake and with demands for recovery after weightlifting your metabolism will pick up and you will start losing weight (and more importantly - fat!) again.
