I will…

Let's stop calling it "Weight Loss"
The problem I have with the idea of weight loss is that it can be a massive de-motivater. If you're starting out on your journey then you're going to want to measure your progress daily. The problem is that as weight fluctuates you can get yourself in a demotivated rut. If you measure yourself say the end of each month…

I ended up getting under weight at about 130 lbs focusing mainly on cardio. Ran into some trouble with binge eating for a month or two because I wasn't eating enough calories for my…
