Stats: 5'3", 26, female Instagram: @eevincheezburger (follow me for my fitness journey!) My fitness journey started in 2010 when I was halfway through college and decided I was sick of what I looked like. I weighed 150 lbs. You can see how unhappy I am in that picture. Through years of dieting and cardio, I fluctuated from…

Before & After 1 year of Crossfit, Lifting, & Eating Clean!
tl;dr warning haha. But I figure this will save me a lot of inboxes! One-year update for my loves who have been with me since last year!

Abs are starting to show...
What the heck... I've never seen my abs before. I'm still relatively high in body fat percentage but slooooooowly it's coming off.

1.5 months of crossfit before/after photos
I've been doing crossfit for about 1.5 months now and have noticed a great difference in myself. In just one month alone I lost 2 inches around my middle, GAINED an inch around my butt, and actually gained a pound. And those measurements were from 2 weeks ago, so they are probably different by now. Body fat percentage is…

Different "kinds" of exercise shoes?
I am in need of a new pair of running shoes. I will be running a 5k on pavement next month. The shoes I have now are old and worn down and cause me to get really bad shin splints when I take them out on the pavement (although on a treadmill they give me no problems at all). I was wondering which brand/make you guys…

Treadmill vs outdoor running
Have any of you noticed a difference between running on a treadmill vs outdoor (i.e., on a track, cross-country, streets, etc.)? I've been running on a treadmill for about a year now and have increased my time for a mile. The other day I went out and ran on pavement for the first time and I had shin splints so bad I could…

Fruits and Sugar/Carb intake
What are your thoughts on fruits and trying to balance out carb/sugar intake? Do you count the fruit in your macros? Personally I don't think fruits are the worst thing for you, and if you go over on carbs/sugars because of an apple, I don't think it's anything to worry about. But I was wondering what other people thought.

Fiance wants to start exercise, doesn't know how to eat
Hi guys, I've been a MFP member for a long time. I started doing crossfit about a month ago and am still trying to figure out how to effectively juggle my macros (I literally hear something different from every single person, so I'm sort of doing trial and error for myself). My fiance recently decided to get involved in…

Crossfit for fat loss?
Just started doing Crossfit 3-4 times per week, with one day a week dedicated to a long, intense running session. After one week of it, and an actual modification toward a better diet, I have actually gained 5 lbs :/ My trainers say they see this all the time, and that it's the shock of my muscles sucking up all the water…
