    Hey girl!!! Just did week 1 day 1 again this morning. Trying to start working out before the kids get up since working out with them awake just doesn't always work.

    Personally, I hate the flavour of protein powder, I'll always go for chicken haha! But if you feel it'll help you hit your macros easier then go for it!

    Hmmm. I tend to get these small bumps when i eat too much chicken thats why i wanna try some protein supplements. Anyways, do i also need to get in a calorie deficit while doing bbg????

    I try to drink a protein shake after my workouts because I struggle to get in enough protein in my diet.

    The calorie deficit is entirely your call. I eat at a deficit because I am very overweight and need to lose lbs. If you eat at a deficit while doing BBG you will lose weight while building muscle. If you don't eat at a deficit you will build muscle and may not lose additional weight. So it really comes down to what you want to do! From what I see with other BBG users is that they don't eat at a deficit and some even gain weight, but this is in form of muscle, so they are actually decreasing in size.

    Amazing!! I'm banned from sports after since my last session my knee got infected - just got back from the hospital. This means I'll re-start week 5 once I'm back and we'll be at the same point again!

    Hey everyone! I'm new to the group. My roommate and I doing BBG together and we are currently on Week 4!! (A little off schedule because of the long 4th of July holiday weekend so we are on day 2 but plan to get it done by Monday when we start Week 5!) :) hope everyone is having a great day!

    So are we all starting week 5 today???

    We went to an amusement park yesterday and I am burned. Kind of scared to put on a sorts bra and jump around.

    I can't - my knee is still painful and the doctor was very clear on that I need to not do anything until the pain goes away :-(

    Welcome @katelaurel390 - it's great to have you here!!

    I know, I am so annoyed - I am SUPER MOTIVATED to do Kayla right now and I can't :( But I'm feeling better, I may be able to restart next Monday =)

    Aw that's a bummer about your knee! But definitely best to keep off of it to fully recover and get back on track with the rest of us!

    Are you allowed to go for walks? You could do a bunch of LISS sessions just to keep moving a bit!
  • Piqueaboo
    Piqueaboo Posts: 1,193 Member
    Yes, that is exactly what I am doing :) I am walking a ton to make up for the lack of exercise, and I'm pedantically sticking to 1200 calories. It's the only thing I can actually do until I'm "healed", so I am =)

    That's great that you are keeping up with LISS. You'll snap right back into it all when you can!

    Hey guys! I just joined the group and I'm really excited to share workouts along with seeing everyone's progress :smile: I'm on week 2 after restarting from week 8!

    @Piqueaboo I hope your knee is feeling better, I know that can be super frustrating when you can't workout on it.

    Anyone take/drink stuff from Protein World? I drink the slender blend for breakfast every morning. Hope everyone is having a good start to the week!
