Question:

I know I need to have a better diet but i dont eat fish.

Answers:
I'm in the same boat you are. With out knowing the full extent of your exercise and diet I can't say a whole lot. What I will recommend is a book called The Liver-Cleansing Diet by Sandra Cabot. Your liver the the "pump fat out of the body" organ. If that organ is not working properly it may retard your ability to lose weight. Another factor to consider is not the scale, but rather the fat % I remember starting (again) to lift weights. I looked at myself in the mirror and thought I was getting thinner, but the scale said nothing had changed. The reason is, muscle is three times denser than fat. For a more accurate measure of fat loss take measurements. Use a piece of string or get a tape measure use for sewing. Maybe even body fat calipers. The fact that you are not losing weight does not mean you are not losing fat. Another book I often recommend is Body for Life
By Bill Phillips. Maybe your are not lifting heavy enough to gain enough muscle to burn the fat. For what it's worth, my biggest hurdle to overcome is sugar! I love it and it goes straight to my waist.

Other Answers:
You eat too much, try halving the quantity of your food intake.

duhhhh!! dont lift. muscle has more mass the fat. just run alot and eat healthy cut out all the soft drinks and anything with alot of sodium and stay away from salty foods.salt holds water and sodium is what makes u feel bloated.if u can eat 5 small portion meals a day and keep running.go on an all protein diet wouldn hurt

you need to burn more calories than you take in and it is not going to happen over night, figure 1pound a week to be realistic.

sometimes the truth hurts

You know the answer. 80 % of a weight loss comes from dieting. Eventhough you dont like fish, it is possible to lose weight. As long as you avoid bad fat and carbs. Try to make your portions smaller and it should help. You could try to calculate how much calories you eat in one day, and then try to reduce by 300 calories your next day. Once your stomach will get use to your reduced portion, try to reduce your calories intake again. You should loose 1-2 pounds per week MAX.

Good luck !
