Thank you <3 I'm so motivated to do this now!

I guess I'm worried that my body might be adapted to too low calories (Since I haven't been tracking consistently and my intake has jumped around so much). I'm totally overthinking I think haha Alright, tomorrow morning I will take out the food scale, start at 2100 (-250ish) calories, start my training program, and work on…

I've been doing PHUL for 3 weeks now I've been lifting for 2 years now, but never really stuck to a solid program (program jumping) or stayed consistent with my eating. Decided it was time to get solid on building muscle, so I've been increasing calories but still no change in scale weight.. So I asked :)

My strength hasn't been getting better or worse now that I look at my notes (I track my workouts). I didn't really think that would be a contributing factor. It's just considering my activity level, I never thought I would possibly be needing these many calories!
