Try taking magnesium at bedtime. I take ZMA & it helps with sleep http://www.esupplements.com/products/optimum-zma/?utm_source=google+product+search&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=optimum-zma

I looked at your diary and your protein intake is extremely to low. If you continue doing this, you'll lose all your muscles and just end up " skinny fat "

opps thanks!

In your profile under progress. It says you have 30 more pounds to go. Anyways you don't need to lose any more weight at those stats. Work on recomping or bulking. Unless you just want to go to the skinny approach and like that "look" with no muscle. GL

On her avatar. It says she wants to lose 30 more pounds? Get to 100lbs at 5'6? Is that even healthy

You shouldn't be losing any weight at your stats. If you don't like the way you look than its because you hardly have any muscles and possibly are "skinny fat". Take a pic of your legs and post it. Let us judge.

I have to agree with this. Why bother. He can do his own research. That's what he is doing. Let him. If he wants to starve and eat the minimum. So be it.

I have been taking magnesium supplement at bed time (ZMA). It has helped with the muscle soreness. I take it at bed time because it helps with sleep too. Although that is not the receiving i'm taking it. I have been able to increase the amount of workouts I do because it has reduced my muscle soreness.

Are you getting chest pressure or palpitations or both? Are you having other symptoms like dizziness? Have you upped your cardio intensively? If it's palpitations it may be a run of supraventicular tachycardia (SVT) which may not be seen in ECG since it was induce by exercise. If you don't have any genetic history of…

Do you eat before working out ?

Try taking some supplements such as magnesium at bed time may help. http://drsircus.com/medicine/magnesium/magnesium-deficiency-symptoms-diagnosis You can't really over dose on magnesium. Its very difficult to get enough in your diet. I take two pills at bedtime. It helps with sleep, muscle soreness. It has helped my…

not even recomp. Bulk time. She has no muscle, needs to work on building muscle till she feels she has put enough and then cut again

You are not going to bulk. If you are on a calorie deficit. The only way to add muscle is by eating at a surplus.

eat

It's not scientifically possible. If you want muscle, EAT MORE :D

I posted a great link. Go ahead and read it. It makes a difference. "Understanding what happens with weight as your body ages will help you to control it. Beginning around age 25, total body fat starts to increase, while muscle mass and body water decrease. As a result, you may weigh more as you age or lose some of your…

I'm not saying you cannot change your body composition. It is normal part of the aging process for her body composition to change. It can be prevented and she can get back to the body she "wants". As she says " I don't look as good as I use to." I have attached a link concerning the aging process.…

It doesn't work like that. Age changes your body composition. As you get older you tend to gain fat and lose muscle. Make sure you are keeping protein intake high to maintain the muscle that you already have. Keep lifting "heavy." After you lose the fat, go back to bulking ( increase calories ) and work on gaining muscle.…

It appears like the MD was RIGHT :)

Oh my..my goodness sake. It sounds like you have had issues with the medical field :)

I have to agree. She was inundated with new information at the time when she probably didn't fully process what the doctor told her. The shock with the diagnoses coupled with the weight of her emotions make it difficult to listen, process any information. It's probably a good idea for her to call her physician with…

oh, loll

You guys need to stop falling for trolls.

You are skinny & at a healthy weight. Your thighs are not big. 22 inch is not big. Start lifting weights. Embrace having a pear shape :)

likes plenty of classes (yoga) pool locker rooms free weights several locations (including a women's gym) 24/7 jacuzzi sauna basketball court dislikes no bands no lacrosse balls need more squat racks ( only two)

that is not lunch, thats a snack. Looks like u're under eating. ( calories look <1000). You will not maintain this.

The only way is by cycling, If you're only going to cut you will get underweight & look too thin on your upper body. This is why you do a slow bulk & add towards the upper part of your body. After this happens you cut again this way you don't look too thin on your upper & lean out on the lower. But you'll needed to do a…

You sound like a pear shape. Pear shapes need multiple cut/bulk cycles to reduce body fat in lower part. I would reduce body fat to 20 % ( cut) than start doing a slow bulk, and then go back to cutting. Its back and forth.

Stop eating back your exercise calories thats the problem. The calories estimated for walking are highly inaccurate. Stick to eating 1200-1600. & this starvation thing is so bogus. The people in Africa are the ones who are in "starvation mode"

it may just be water weight. Start taking measurements .
