Lose Muscle vs fat first?
I've been working out and was suddenly forced to stop due to hypertension. I've been losing more rapidly since stopping working out than I had been before. Ideas whether I'm losing muscle or losing fat? The working out I was doing wasn't crazy intense so its not like I was massively muscle building before stopping. I was…

weight fluctuations / minor increases
My progress graph is all over the place. Its up a few days then down a few days then up again for another few days. I'm so annoyed.

Rest Days
What do you do on rest days? Up till now I've been walking daily for at least 30 mins. I feel good about that and am closing my apple watch rings. But now I'm trying to run every other day. Should I walk on my rest days? Should I legit do nothing? I'm aware of the idea that I should do resistance work but can't really do…

Rewards - how do you handle?
How do you reward yourself? I don't mean at what interval I mean how? I ordered a reward that I want to give myself when I hit a milestone but not sure how to "give it" when I hit the reward. I ordered from etsy so it'll come in the next week or two and my hitting the milestone will prob be in a few weeks. Do I just put it…
