Thank you very much everyone for your replies! I really appreciate all of your help <3 I do get the body recomposition, and the photos are helpful to see. At one point, I was cycling to the gym and doing heavy lifting, and was at 62kg, but I looked very muscular (my body fat was about 16% then)! But, as I have been sick…

Hi everyone! I’m travelling rn so I can’t reply to everyone yet (I’ll do that tonight - thank you so much for all the replies, I really appreciate it). I just wanted to quickly add in my height - I’m just over 5’7. I’m pretty embarrassed to say that my disabilities do prevent me from walking as I have a lot of…

Feel free to add me!! I’m currently bulking and weightlifting 🧡

Brilliant advice, thank you!

I've been bulking for about 7-8 months I'd say on 2150-2300 calories a day, I've gone from about 100lbs up to 128lbs! I've never done a real cut before x

Will def do this, thank you xx It's weird, I was never underweight on purpose, I just was naturally thin and kind of fell into the culture of eating 'clean' and staying away from carbs etc, didn't even know it was unhealthy until I went to the doctors after feeling dizzy and tired! I feel so so much better and more healthy…

Thank you, I was working at sculpting out a more hourglass body shape by weightlifting and building up the rest of my body but just got self conscious about my puffy stomach! Hopefully it will get more toned as I gain more muscle x

Such an inspiring transformation, thank you!! What made the sides of your hips bigger? I've been focusing on deadlifts, bulgarian split squats and barbell hip thrusts to build up my bum but it's not hitting the sides, had a go on the cable machine for side kicks but didn't seem to work! x

Thank you for replying!! Edit - for some reason it didn't post the rest of my reply lol I'll try again: I definitely see where you're coming from in regards to genetics - when I was thinner I had a 24" waist, but I was underweight with no bum and barely any muscle. Right now my stomach looks quite puffy with no visible abs…

I’m going on my first ever cut today and find that calculating calories is so confusing! I’m 5’7 and I’ve gained almost 30lbs - i’m now 128lbs with a 27” waist and 37” hips. I’d like to get my waist down to 25” ideally but not lose my bum! My bf is 17%. I’ve been eating 2150-2300 on a bulk, but when I use online…

Brilliant thank you for the inspiration guys!!

I agree with you, I have lost weight due to anxiety, depression and stress, it's seems overwhelming trying to gain it! Good luck to you and thank you for sharing your story <3

I love hummus! I love guacamole too, does that count as healthy since it's mostly avocado which is the good type of fat? I didn't think of eating white rice or carbs thank you!

Thanks so much guys! I don't have a lot of fat in my diet so I'll try to incorporate it more, it makes a lot of sense! Hopefully that's the key thing missing from what I'm doing :) I haven't had my first session at the gym yet, I did want to deadlift my own body weight eventually but I'll work up to it. Like you said,…
