Answer

Muscle weighs more than fat, so don't focus on the number on the scale, do measurements and base your progress off of that. Plus diet considerations as well but other people have touched on that.

Answer

Losing weight is more about what's in your diet. Take a closer look at the calories you're consuming.

Answer

How long do you work out during those 4 days and what kind of work out are you doing?

Answer

Your weight is 80% a reflection of your diet and 20% your exercise habits. You are eating enough to sustain your current weight. If you still have weight to loose find a way to cut calories (fruits and vegetables are great low calorie alternative) if you are close to your weight you may just have more muscle and not need to worry to much.

Answer

Diet and weight training affect it. If you're building muscle, then you are gaining weight from that. Do more cardio and watch what you're putting into your body and you should see results. Also, if you have lost a lot of weight and have stalled, you could have hit a plateau and need to mix up your routine.

Answer

Doctors and scientists are now finally coming to realize that our weight is less about diet and exercise than we thought.  I work with a doctor at MGH who helped me to lose 60 lbs by identifying a genetic disorder that keeps my metabolism super low.  I also have congenital hypothyroidism. I came off my prescription for my metabolism in April to ttc, and gained 30 lbs. in three months. I tracked calories and exercised 6 days per week while it was happening.  For that to happen, I would have had to eat 5000 calories every day.

It's not always about your behaviors.  There can be other factors at play.  Find a good doctor who can help.
