Hello!
I’ve been on MyFitnessPal since 2012, but never used the social aspect. I’ve lost 60 pounds over the last 2 years and I’m at the final push. Tracking calories once again to reinforce habits that have waned and to make sure I stay in a deficit. I also just reread Tom Venuto’s book The Body Fat Solution which is EXCELLENT! I’m strength training 4 days a week and doing cardio/core an additional 2 days a week. Anyone else focusing on physique with their training?
Looking for training accountability partners!
Thanks!

    Awesome progress!

    I train for performance in specific activities rather than appearance, but I certainly don't mind building defined muscles. I've recently transitioned to maintenance calories, but I'm still working to reduce body fat percent a bit more. I was last tested a couple months ago and figure I'll do another DEXA scan in March or April to see how I've progressed this year, but I already feel stronger than at the start of the year.

    That’s great! I would love to have a DEXA Scan done, but alas, the nearest one is about 4 hours away. I’m aiming for a BF% around 20-21%. I’m guesstimating mine around 24-26%.

    Nice to see you Evah! I'm on the same page myself, working on losing the same to see my BF scale drop below 20. Happy to help you stay accountable!
