With such a topic so broad we truly try to cover the basics from all angles in this group. Nothing too big or too small. Nutrition is as significant if not more as exercise is to reaching your goals so learn all you can.

Hi all! I've been trying to lose weight for months now with no results. Since I joined here though, I've learnt so much that I realised I messed up my metabolism by starving myself, over training etc. Basically I did everything wrong. Now I'm following my fitness and Nutrional plan but want to know: How long is it going to take me to get my metabolism up and running again? Will it happen by itself if I just stick to my workouts and diet?
I feel a bit disheartened, 'cause nothing I do seems to work. Please help :(
