ONCE you have your TDEE and BMR...next step
I have received this question quite a few times so hopefully this will help (ofcourse please plug in your own numbers).

Kettlebell
I just had to share because this just blew me away! So many times we will quickly share negative feedback when it comes to customer service, but fail to give "Shout Outs" when it is due.

I posted this on my newsfeed, but want to share it here. This is too good of a thing to keep to myself....I reconnected with an old friend because someone referred her protein bars to me.

Some encouragement for the EM2WL fam...
A word of encouragement for those starting EM2WL and lifting too. The program isn't about dropping weight quick, it is more about losing fat and transforming your physique as you lose body fat.
