See a doctor to rule out any medical problems, but I have autoimmune thyroid disease (aka glandular problems), and the law of thermodynamics still applies to me: If I eat fewer calories than I burn, I lose weight.
It's human nature to underestimate your food & overestimate your burns. If you're not logging everything you eat and drink accurately & honestly, then you really have no idea how many calories you're eating.
I use http://weightlossvenus.com. Feel free to friend me—my username is the same both places. That goes for anyone who's trying to lose weight. Logging is simple, but it ain't easy. Logging works.
