This, I think is incorrect in her case. It sounds like she needs a solid weight training routine and needs to eat at maintenance.

I've had many accounts here, and am intending on staying for a long while. Add me if you please

It's very true and prevented my trauma induced depression for many years.

Fat loss is the first key as mentioned above. If you would like to increase your muscle tone I would recommend the following exercises: Abs/Obliques (front of your core): Lying leg raises Hanging leg raises Planks Swiss ball crunches Lower back region (back of your core): Reverse hyperextensions Back extensions Front…

Increasing your fats will make it easier to hit your calorie goal with a less full stomach, making it perhaps easier to lift in a full state. Otherwise move your session. You can also try saving water/liquids until after your session as to avoid filling your stomach more

You do not even need to lift significantly heavy to get results, you just need progressive overload, which is an increase in volume/intensity which can include weight. I would recommend ensuring your activation is sufficient, in the deadlift you should be able to feel your hamstrings, glutes and a slight amount of lower…

As you're young, if your not feeling dizzy or nauseas you should be fine. Just be careful not to overtrain, drink lots of water (when it sits best in your belly, some don't tolerate water well during, just load up after if this is you). Take your rest days when needed.

Open ☺️

It couldn't hurt to take a multivitamin and fish oil. You can also take separately a b complex, calcium & magnesium, vitamin c with more fish oil. This covers your bases. I've found pharmagreens powder very beneficial when I can afford to buy it also. The above advice is based on overall health. If you increase your…

Keep eating at maintenance, training, drinking water and take advantage of products with digestive enzymes like yogurt, kombucha etc

I am a fitness professional and lifting weights is what creates "tone" in your body. What specific body parts would you like to "tone". Message me and I can assist you.

It could be stress, or increased appetite due to training. Stress can increase water retention and so can nutritional deficiencies. We do need to know a specific calorie intake if you want a solid answer.

What tinker bell said. I love myself a vodka and soda water with lime

I don't think you need to weigh more than once every month given your past experiences. I have suffered from both myself.

What they said ^

Message me if you need extra help as I need info from you first, do you have any equipment?

Cut cardio down to 2-3 days per week and replace with 1-2 more strength days, that should get you started then slowly add calories from there.

I understand. Just know that you will build muscle in some areas and miss others. For example, large quads with no hamstrings or butt. You can always create 3-4 workouts with only 4 exercises each and still get all the muscle groups in man.

Feel free to add me, currently prepping for bikini comp but eating as much as possible

I would set your goal to 2500 and always be sure to be over 2000

Okay just remember to keep your eyes open for warnings signs of undereating

These workouts are not working all of your muscle groups. You are missing rowing movements, glute and hamstring movements. You can google home workouts for these muscle groups but I'll also list some below: Romanian Deadlifts - Adductors, Hamstrings, Lower glutes Deadlifts - Hamstrings, glutes, adductors Underhand bent…

Circuit training if you are doing multiple different exercises in a circuit style. If you're doing running HIIT, where you jog at 8Km/h for 2mins then run at 14km/h for 30s for 5 rounds, for then you would add up the time and log the individual speeds, same with cycling except you would use "moderate" and "vigorous"

I am not sure about other programs, but you can simply search workout videos on YouTube in regards to the muscles you want to work etc. for example I used to watch "glute workouts" and "HIIT cardio". Another alternative is doing your research and informing yourself about exercise ☺️ that is what I did before I got my…

They say not to drink coffee or black tea with any vitamin supplement... buts that's just picking at straws ☺️

Or use half a can for example and log that

I measure using cups after draining for that reason

Unless you are eating only carbohydrates, it's almost impossible not to lower your blood sugar on that low calories. Who told you to eat that little?

One meal at a time! It takes small steps to make change

You can do it! Feel free to add me xx
