Intermittent fasting and joint pain
I just started intermittent again about a week ago and I finally found the magic formula for my body to lose weight. I feel fantastic, other than increased joint pain mostly in my knees.

New here :)
Hello! I’m new here.. I’m a 34yr old mom of 5 trying to lose 30-40lbs. Scale number is just a “guesstimate” of what my goal is, because I’m lifting and running and I know muscle gain can affect the numbers. If anyone has tips on what the macro ratio should be to lose fat, I’m all ears!!
