I have to disagree with some of the replies above. I don't think it'll work itself out. If it started in the first place, and you aren't doing something directly to fix it, why would it fix itself? Definitely try isolateral exercises for your bicep. Do a few more sets, maybe more reps with the weaker side. These are why…

Roothlus, Like everyone mentioned, calories are definitely too low. A lot of people do that. They will under eat, do a ton of cardio, and then they hit a plateu and have nothing to adjust and stop losing weight. Even 1500 calories a day is still way too low for someone like you my friend. Especially days that you are going…

Hello, This is absolutely doable, or at least very close to 35 pounds. And doable at a healthy pace. If you lose two pounds per week, which is a very healthy rate but no more (1.5-2lbs/week is okay), then you would lose right around 30 pounds by July. What I recommend is not to cut out carbs completely. I would do a…
