I am getting frustrated with this working out thing. I don't know what I am doing wrong. Lately I have been having a backslide and have gained back 2 pounds. I eat 6 times a day. I have upped my cardio to 30 minutes. I don't know if its because I do the same cardio all the time. I am thinking it could be because I do tend to sneak a couple of extra snacks in during the day but, I will eat my dinner and then directly after that I will eat my snack so that I am really full. I have a suspicion that doing these things are messing with my metabolism. I usually work out 4 times a week but, I do occasionally miss a Friday which I know is not good. Any input on what I might be causing this would be appreciated. Oh yeah, I am not near my goal weight either. I am 5'6" and weigh 174.
