What sort of workouts did you adopt at first ? What where sort of your timelines? How did it feel once you did get back to it ?

I think that’s what makes me cringe a bit... the fact that I won’t be able to lift for a WHILE. How long did you wait?

100% true and definitely appreciate the perspective. I am often reminded that these are the short term sacrifices that we have to make in order to reach long term goals. Plus ultimately, I definitely don’t mind eating lol. I really appreciate your dedication in speaking to me. Happy holidays !

I really appreciate your insight. Being completely honest I have not weighed myself in 2 months. This usually gives me major anxiety so I do myself the favor of avoiding it unless I’m cutting.

I have not really weighed myself in the past month, but can estimate around 15 days.

I’m bulking! I would ideally want to put on muscle with minimal fat gain.... which I know comes with the territory

Thank you guys! Just for reference these are my stats Height: 5 Ft Weight currently: 109-110lbs Training: strength 6 times a week (1:15), cardio 7 days (1 hour) Starting Maintance was 1700 Deficit Calories are 1500

Thank you!

I LOVED everything Green Tea supposedly does for your body so I used to consume it regularly, however, recently I've been noticing that I also feel a little nausea when I drink it, as well as, I get a little shaky. I've been trying to cut down and drink perhaps 2 times a week AT MOST.

Yes. I want to add a little more muscle than what I currently have. My arms are defined, my legs are somewhat defined, and my stomach is slowly getting there lol

Sorry, I meant to mention that my Food Diary is set as public, so feel free to look at it.

I don't think I have lost weight. I've pretty much stayed the same, however I have seen significant muscle growth, but I am a little concerned that I am perhaps not eating enough, thus, limiting my muscle growth

Feel free to add me too! I try to keep myself accountable and always log. Always with the mentality that it's okay to indulge one in a while.

I generally eat about 1200 calories a day, as per MFP's suggestion. Carbs 170~200 grams Protein: ~85 - 95 Fats: ~28 However my workouts are usually of about an 1.5 hr 6 days a week. A mix between HIIT and Strength so I usually range about 500 CALS. Should I be eating those 500calories?

I'm trying to lose fat whilst building lean muscle.

Thank You Guys! I enjoy all your tips. Just so you know, I have seen lean progress, but I can't seem to get the muscle definition I need. That's why I feel like I am not eating enough.

Whenever research what my caloric needs SHOULD BE, it says that I should eat around 1100 to 1200 calories. I am guessing due to my height. However, with my work out schedule (6 days), I was wondering if I should perhaps be eating more.
