This, given that you are 5'1 and 116 with only a couple lbs to lose you're more realistic weight loss target should be half lb per week. Just because you tell MFP you want to lose 2lbs/week doesn't mean you should listen to it... Try finding your TDEE and go from there. I think you'll find you can eat A LOT more and lose…

I would say you should seek the help of a medical professional to make sure everything is alright with your system. Good luck!

Finally making progress, SLOW, but at least it's something in the right direction... my body doesn't lose like it used to it seems! Then again I haven't had to lose 8-10lbs in a LONG time. I'll hopefully get there before June lol!

Bulking is definitely hard, much harder than I thought it would be. I put my weight on REALLY quickly at the start and it seriously freaked me out. The first few weeks were definitely the hardest. It's really a mental game. It did seem to get easier though, I got used to being a sausage. I bulked for about 5 months and…

Way to go Leena!! So proud of you for sticking with it :) You did such a great job and I know what a struggle it was for you!
-
I personally bulked for about 5 months... I don't think I could have handled it any longer! None of my clothes fit me anymore and I was miserable. That said... I've been trying to cut for a month now and have been basically spinning my wheels. So, I'd keep in mind the weight loss bit after, it's HARD! Harder than I…

Beautifully said <3

Welcome, Diana!!!

Not every country has a drinking age of 21... She lives in the UK where the drinking age is 18.. totally fine and legal for her to go out!

I would say a slight caloric deficit (TDEE-10% perhaps), 1g protein/lb of BW (muscles need it to grow!!), a heavy lifting routine (New Rules, Starting Strength, Strong Lifts), and a lot of patience/persistence. You can definitely do it!
