Trying to maintain and/or lost fat/build thigh muscle at 120
https://imgur.com/a/yvGuTiS 5'5", F28, I feel way more comfortable with how my body looks at 120 (right and bottom pic) and could even stand to lose some fat/build muscle from the thighs, but I find it hard to maintain this weight for a long time. If I'm not calorie counting but still eating well and working out I tend to…

Insatiable Hunger From Lifting?
I've been doing really good up to this point. Around 5'5 or 5'4 and 125 pounds on heaviest days. Goal is 115 as I have stubborn thigh fat, losing weight mostly for aesthetics now. I've started increasing my lifting routine at the gym and at home, mostly focusing on legs, and my hunger has gone through the roof! I'm used to…

Do you save up your calories/exercise calories for an event or party?
I'm wondering if anyone else does this? MFP says if I eat 1330 a day I should lose .5 a week. I'm 5'4" 121 decided I would like to lose only about 6 more vanity pounds and I bike about 4 times a week. Sometimes I'll eat 200 cals less one day or not eat back any exercise calories, usually early in the week and save them up…

Do I need to cut more or lift more for slimmer thighs?
Thought 125 at 5'5" would be a good stop and re-evaluate weight but my thighs have stayed pretty much the same since my high weight as you can see. Wondering if I need to incorporate exercises I'm not already doing? I cycle and take spin class around 3/week, bodyflow class, some but not very consistent squats, leg press,…

Proud that I finally got under 135 today! Told myself I'd track my photo progress when I got to this weight. Started at 156 lbs. And to think I thought I looked fine. x.x. Weighed myself today and I'm officially 134! Still have some fat on my legs I'd like to lose and my shape is turning out more boyish than I'd like but…

Looking for motivation; the last 15
Hi I'm just looking for some accountability/motivation I guess. Trying to get down to around 120. I'm trying to plan out my meals ahead of time. I'm noticing my binges are more frequent as I'm gearing towards my goal. There's lots of free food at work. I won't eat it and'll save it for later and then I'll end up eating…

Strength training on a torn mcl/acl
I tore my mcl/acl yeaarrrsss ago back in college. Never got surgery and it doesn't bug me so often. The other day it did bug me and I had to cut my cardio short and also had to lessen the weights on my squats. I've been upping my cardio on the treadmill and think that's what's causing it. On days when I can't do squats or…

Are my calculations correct?
Hi, I just want to see if my plan for losing about a pound a week is sound. I feel my calculations are correct but I'm not seeing the numbers go down as fast on the scale as I'd want. Just being sedentary I've calculated my weekly calorie burn around 11,500-3,500=8,000 calories eaten a week to lose a pound. I'm female, 25,…
