The numbers are really small but I think mine should read 10 as the loss for January.

-Have you tried adjusting your calories down by 100? See if that gets things moving again for you. -Use tape measures as sometimes Ive noticed during weightloss my weight doesn't change but I've dropped inches. -Are you eating back exercise calories? -Do you weigh in every morning or once per week? If only once, you may be…

I use a 5% benzoyl peroxide gel and 5% face wash. Not sure if that would make more of a difference than 2.5%. Probably depends on what type of acne too.
-
Over the past year I started using a face wash and gel that contains benzoyl peroxide. My routine is wash first, gel on my chin (that's where I get my breakouts) and then I follow up with a light weight moisturizer. I use Lubriderm brand and honestly, it's not an expensive brand but it's one of the best that I've tried!…

SW 156.5 GW 140 (moving this lower) LW 149.4 TW 147.1 -2.3 Total loss since Dec 31 -9.4 lbs This week was odd. I thought my scale was broken and was already looking online for something new. Six days in a row I came in at the exact same weight every morning, not a single fluctuation and then this morning I woke up two…

Week 2 — Start Weight: 156.5 lb Challenge Goal Weight: 145 Weigh-in #1: 149.3 Weigh-in #2: 149.0 Total loss: -7.5 lbs A positive thought I had this week was: I'm finally really motivated to do this and sticking to my slotted calorie intake even though there was pressure to eat more at family get togethers. A healthy…

I don't use mine as long as I'm feeling okay and making good progress. Probably later in my diet when my hunger hormones start going out of whack I'll slow down the weight loss and eat a little more, but that probably won't be for another month.

Week 1 Start Weight: 156.5 Challenge Goal Weight: 145 Weigh-in #1: 149.3 -7.2 lbs (really bloated from holidays). A positive thought I had this week was: As easy as getting back on a bicycle!

First Weigh in for Friday: SW: 156.5 DEC 31 TW: 151.6 Jan 5 -4.9

I set it to sedentary because my non excercise activity varies dramatically depending on if I'm working or not. Maybe I'm just being overly cautious as far as the double dipping, because when I actually think about it -the watch would know when I did the workout so it wouldn't add step calories for that time frame.…

I've had mine since April 2017. I'm really loving it and honestly it's the only watch I've ever worn day in and day out. I'm very much a data person being an accountant and I love history on my stats. It's very motivating too when you see how little you burn when you don't do much activity!!

I have the Garmin vivosmart HR+. Not sure how to add people though..

I would like to try the coolcicada program at some point.

Update: It was psychological. Completed deadlifts yesterday and focused on what my legs were doing for once and the right leg didn't twitch. Will keep watching in the upcoming weeks to see if the issue comes back. I think I was too focused on pulling my shoulders back and engaging lats due to a previous upper back issue,…

I agree, and you don't know everyones' pants situation. I stopped buying pants a month before I ended my cut so I could "make room" in my tiny pants so that when I bulked they would end up fitting properly again. Now they are starting to get tighter during month 4 of my bulk. But if my tiny pants were already tight at the…

Here's my question: I've noticed my right knee collapses inwards when deadlifting, at both low weight and the current weight I'm working on. I thought it was psychological at first, thinking I'm gonna bump my knees on the way up so my knee would move out of the way, but now I'm thinking it's not and I actually can't avoid…

It's called bulking. You need to bulk. Your body currently hates you.
-
You sure? I didn't change my macros in February at all. I'm at the same level of surplus since the beginning of January and increased my workout volume again in February. Wouldn't that mean I would've had to up my surplus in February to keep up with the intensity change now? ....Which I did not do. Wouldn't my glycogen…

^ I think it takes 4-6 weeks of continuous use to get the effects of creatine. I started taking it in late December and have been bulking since then and have only noticed my performance in the gym increase greatly in February. Nothing has changed since January to February in the amount of food intake so I can't really say…
-
@SideSteel I also eat relatively the same amount in macros each day, also on a bulk. 1 coffee per day in the morning, I eat the same types of meals each week. No pre workouts for me, just creatine. I workout at 5pm, 4 nights a week also high volume. I had night sweats about 3-4 times per week really bad at the beginning of…
-
@DopeItUp Did you end up getting checked out? I've been bulking over the last month and have night sweats regularly too. I have been noticing a pattern and they happen the night of a high volume/intense workout. My shirt gets drenched at night and I normally wake up from it around 3am feeling sore from the workout already.…

I'll look out for that! I've not dared to weigh myself this morning as I know the pizza will have made its temporary mark and I'll get annoyed. I have noticed that my hips definitely haven't gained as much width as they usually do when I gain weight. Usually it's the first place to expand. I'm taking this to mean it's…
