Am I getting enough protein?
Hello yall. So I am 5'8", roughly 155, and have been in a calorie deficit for about 2 months. While I don't really track all of my macros, I try to make sure my protein intake is adequate for what I need so I don't lose too much muscle mass. I know while in a deficit + working out, I will lose some regardless. I want to…

What does your workout week look like?
Ive been going to the gym for about 2-3 weeks now. I still feel dumb. I was supposed to meet with a trainer today but they didn't show :( I have been steering more toward cardio because it's easy and you don't really have too many machines in the gym to chose from with that. Anyways, so I'm looking to do more weight stuff.…

Does that mean it's water weight or just because I didn't have very much to lose in the first place?? weighing/measuring everything isn't an issue but I've been eating some fast food, could that be my inaccuracy? Or…

weigh or measure?
protein powders.. the nutrition label says ''3 heaping tablespoons (28g)''. This morning I weighed it but 28g seemed like a lot more than 3 heaping tablespoons. Do you all weigh these or measure?

Trying to tone, using weights, how many calories do I really need?
I originally set my goal to lose 2 lbs a week, and MFP put me at 1200 calories... Satiety isn't an issue, I'm still working on my macros (I'm a little under a month into logging, still learning). But! I recently signed up for a gym membership and am determined to steer more towards weight machines than cardio. It's more…

sore shins?
I ran for the first time a little this morning, alternating between running/walking. Yes, on a treadmill. Anyways, my shins are pretty sore, and its weird.

My macros? & a few other questions
I'm just getting started and feel that I'm doing pretty well, except I don't really have as much knowledge as I would like to (working on it!) I was wondering if anyone could give me their opinions on macros, how to set them (my goal is fat loss), my calorie goal was set by MFP at 1400 but I just changed it to 1200 because…
