Hi everyone, I'm 5'2" and currently 127lbs and about 26% body fat. I've calorie counted for years and years and my lowest was 112lbs but still wasn't happy with the amount of wobble. I am still calorie counting but now I've started weight training 3 times a week with a bit of cardio. LOVING the weight training which is…

Ah not just me then! I need more patience, just can't help but panic when I see a weight increase. I will put this down to water weight then and stop stressing so much!

Thanks for your words of advice, I am meticulous with counting calories and include absolutely everything. I overestimate the things that are tricky to measure too, just in case. I actually find it easy to count cals because I have always seen results from doing it in terms of weight loss but never been 100% happy with the…

You're right - I must start measuring. I'm going to do progress pics once a month too I think. It's good to hear someone is getting good results in terms of body shape, that is definitely my goal. Yes the number on the scales is so easy to fixate on, It's what I've done for so long but I'm determined to stop now!

Hi! Yes I'm very honest with my calories - I've done it for so long now it is second nature. I don't usually use an app to track but I am doing now, just to double check I'm not over/under estimating.

Wow 5000 meters! That would take me a while to build up to but I do love rowing - it's running that I cannot stand. I can fairly comfortably do 1km so maybe it's time I up my game! It's reassuring to hear that you're seeing good results - I'm being far too impatient so I need to keep at it. Thanks for your help

Oh ok that's good to know, I've always seen carbs as the enemy and the route of my problems, even when maintaining a calorie deficit. I will continue as I am before I panic then, I'm just so psychologically conditioned to want to see a weight loss! Thank you!

Will do, thank you :)

Just 3 weeks so I knew it couldn't be any sort of muscle gain. My protein intake is ok, carbs are my nemesis and are probably too high. Never thought to look at my sodium intake so will look into that, thanks!

Interested to know how you are doing with the weightlifting? Are you finding any weight gain?

New here! I'm 5'2" and currently 127lbs and happy-ish....My previous "happy" weight was 120lbs but even at that there was still more wobble than I wanted. I have accepted the fact that I won't get the look I desire through diet alone and so started weight training 3 weeks ago. So far I have put 1lb on which in the grand…
