I've lost 22 pounds and not a single jean size. That's demotivating.

I can fluctuate about 30 before really needing to buy new pants. It's lame.

I lost 40 before I lost a size. Ridiculous!

What a bummer. :[ Do you work out at all? Usually it's inches that assist in the jean size.

Yep.

4x week, 25 minutes cardio (12 on elliptical & 13 on bicycle) and 2x upper body weights and 2x lower body weights.

Maybe increase your cardio?

Any suggestions of how to make cardio less boring? I already want to suicide from the boredom and watch the clock count down even if I'm watching tv on subtitles and listening to upbeat music.

The thought of even five more minutes is painful.. lol

I zone out on TV. I try to watch something that doesnt have commercials, if I can help it. If Im at the gym doing cardio, I watch the news or something I can concentrate on.

The thing is, you cant look at cardio as exercize because then you'll loathe doing it & it's easier to fall off the wagon. Try listening to different kinds of music when you work out, too. Listening to the same play list 50 times can get really monotonous.
