My arms are so sore that I can barely fully extend them. Is that normal?
-
Thank you all so much!
-
Thank you guys
-
Does this work? :O
-
Can I still build a little muscle and get more toned by being right on my TDEE? Because if I have to gain fat to gain muscle, I don't want to do it. Not worth it to me.
-
Thank you so much everyone.
-
If only, my friend.
-
Will I have a less flat stomach as a result? I'm worried about the number on the scale going up again but I need to remember it would probably be mostly muscle.
-
Not sure if my pictures do my hips 'justice' though. Does that mean my stomach will get larger since I would eat at a surplus?
-
Thanks, guys! Perhaps I'm too hard on myself.
-
So this is a very long process :O What if I want to get more toned and muscled, but not necessarily bulk up a ton?
-
So I pretty much have to decide between a flat stomach and a larger upper body? Sorry if I'm slow with this haha

I appreciate the sympathy and I'm certainly not denying that what I'm saying doesn't sound right. I'm not throwing a pity party every time I look in the mirror, and I like what I see now more than what I saw 6 months ago, but I have a long road to contentment. <3

Thanks guys! Will upping my calorie intake, though for muscle building, also make me gain fat? I don't want my stomach to grow in the slightest.
-
I realize I'm probably asking dumb questions but if I add calories to create a surplus, will any of that turn into fat?
-
Forgive my inadequacy, but what do those abbreviations in the last sentence mean? Though I've been dieting for a while, I'm still pretty new to this :)
