Muscle gain plan, help please :)
So I said that I wasn't going to track this winter, but the fear of under eating due to fear of overeating convinced me... lol.

Measurement assessment?
Well... I'm not sure how I feel about this... I took some new measurements when I started back 2 months ago, but I haven't really been measuring on a regular basis and only measured my waist, hip, thigh(basically areas that I consider big). I'm not really concerned with quick results, just focusing on the week by week, not…

Returning User/ Food abuser!
Hello, I'm Josie. I have a chronic under eating/ binge eating problem. I don't know what the true definition for binge is, but my highs range up to 4000 while my under days were around 500-700 using my best estimates based on not actually tracking.
