Toss out your scale!!!! It is the biggest liar on the planet!!!!! Do you feel better? Do you have more energy? Are your jeans fitting better? Do you feel pride for treating your body better? Focus on these positive things, exercise and eat clean. You are making progress, the scale is the devil on your shoulder telling you…

If you were to read the New Rules 4 Women Lifting Weights, you would find that you do need to eat more, and that cutting back on you cardio is suggested. That fuel you eat is needed to feed your muscles, don't scrimp, give it what it needs.

A stability ball will give you a great workout and they're not much money. If you can add some dumbbells with removable plates, they are great for lunges, squats, and deadlifts. When you use the ball, look up on google how to do a Prone Jack Knife. They are killer on your core!

A tablespoon of mineral oil gets me going if I need it, but after years of not being reg., eating this way has me on track most of the time!

You don't eat back your exercise calories, they are already factored in. Now if you exercise like crazy then you need to eat more to get to your BMR.

Go to the group on here known as Eat More To Weigh Less. There is so much helpful info on there.

Those seem like really low numbers, most on here have a cut of 1750 and up. Also take pictures, they never lie about your progress. Again, check to see if your numbers are off.

I'm 54 and started lifting weights. I do see toning and muscles and have so much energy! I also joined the Eat More To Weigh Less group on this site. It has been a real eye opener to improve my body and eat more to fuel it! I know that this a good way to keep my bones strong as I age too. Good Luck!!!

Make sure to net you BMR, but your calorie intake is your cut number. That is your TDEE number minus 15%. Eat that number everyday, even rest days. That number, of course, has factored in your exercise calories. Give it 6 six weeks for your body to adjust and then see where you are. Please take pictures. When the scale and…

I have a bob cut, a little different than hers, but I love it! It is so easy to take care of.

I upped my calories to 1776 five weeks ago. Right now I'm in Myrtle Beach on vacation, but I have continued lifting weights whlie I've been here and eating a bit off my program.

Have you talked with your Dr.? I know my sister has a bulging disc right now and is limited to yoga and pilates, which are wonderful workouts, but she can't lift right now. Please make sure you have the green flag.

You will surprise yourself at what you can handle if you commit to it. I was really weak at first, but the longer you do it the more you can do. Just listen to her body though. You will be sore, but don't hurt yourself. I didn't mean to put down the book, I just feel like I have already been doing what the book instructs…

In the book, they don't think too much of cardio. He suggest yoga or pilates on your rest days and yes, you should never work out the same muscles two days in a row. That off day is allowing your muscles to repair themsleves and grow.

I'm already lifting heavy and following the info from the Eat More to Weigh Less group on here. Have been for close to 4 weeks. That's what I meant by I've learned so much before getting the book. By lifting heavy and eating close to 1800 calories a day, I'm getting stronger with each workout and toning up.

You need to give your body more fuel, these groups are full of great info!
