@louis2017 But hunger mood and stress are the reasons people fail at dieting and keeping weight off long term. It has to be sustainable to be successful. The harder the diet, the harder the rebound.

@louis2017 If she starts super low and hits a plateau she’ll have no where to go. So it’s best to start on as high of calories as possible. Also cutting on higher cals is more beneficial for retention of muscle mass.

@prayhouse Yes when I was at my lowest weight my body image was at its worst. It was mostly because even though I was super skinny, I was under muscled. Most of us are under-muscled and we need to build a good foundation of muscle. Which is hard work and takes years of consistency. Secondly, I...

@debate507 Yes it’s true. This is why you never start a cut at super low calories. This is also why holding onto as much muscle mass as possible is important when cutting.

@luin31 3 days is enough. Stop with the orange theory

@conservativechristian You won’t gain it back if you’re eating at maintenance and it’s just one week. Even if you did go over your maintenance slightly you can’t gain that much fat in one week unless you’re bingeing non stop or overindulging every day like crazy. If you do gain from a...

@perviasrectas Yes

@kwellham Arms are the last place to go for some women.

@jessica50332 I get it. It’s what all the advanced lifters do. I’d say if you want to try it out, you really need to know it’s what you want to do and commit to it fully. Otherwise you’ll just be spinning your wheels. Are you afraid of gaining fat on the bulking part? Bulking does seem like it’s...

@indent Build muscle now! It’s easier to build when you have more fat stores!

@jessica50332 Girl you look amazing and you’re being way too hard on yourself. You have great numbers calorie wise and for not being super active too! It looks like weight lifting is working well for you. I wouldn’t stop. I’m honestly wondering what the problem is here? 😂

@hopeeternal I’m sorry. I do not know. Hope you find some clarity on this.

@hopeeternal Yeah. It’s hard work. And it takes a long time to get good at it and even longer to see serious physical results. That’s why people hire coaches. Bc it’s definitely a mental challenge. Also-Are you eating enough food? Do you feel good after your workout is over?

@zakariyya Strength training will help tremendously.

@atheistone Will you lose weight on 1200 calories a day? Yes. Will it be difficult to stick to your diet consistently? Yes. Will you gain all the weight back after your diet is over on that low of calories? Also yes. At your weight, I would recommend that you start your calorie deficit at 1950...

@virtualhope It sounds to me like you should do a cut. I don’t think you should change your training. You say your current calories are 1523. Those sound like cutting calories? Surely that’s not your maintenance calories… ? At your weight and activity level, I’d say your maintenance calories...

@didyousaysomething Yeah if you want to get your maintenance up, continue eating more calories, eat 1g of protein per pound of body weight, and strength train. I would also focus more on fats for you. Because they have the highest calories of any macronutrient. So a smaller quantity of them...

@virtualhope You probably just need to do a mini cut

@didyousaysomething It’s so worth it. If you have to go lower than 1500 calories to cut, I’d definitely recommend taking a year or so to enjoy food and raise your metabolism back up. It’s just so unsustainable to dip below 1500 in this age of calorie abundance in our world. I definitely...
