    Slow but successful recomp progress! F/40/5'0" [51.5>51kg] 7 months

    @relate4ever You think I have a flat tummy?! Woo-hoo, thank you!! My original goal was 105-108 because that's how much I weighed for years pre-kids. I got down to 108 after weaning my 1st, but that was mainly through diet, so I was hungry all the time and my face looked a little drawn. In my...

    @relate4ever Thank you for the kind words! It was a really nice revelation that my body could change for the better without weight loss or a huge calorie deficit.

    @electrics Hi, I'm not an expert by any means, but it sounds like you are really active and your TDEE should be higher. On the whole I am pretty sedentary, so I was surprised that my maintenance is around 1600. Is there something you eat regularly that should count for more calories than you've...

    @youngmarriedlove For sure it was definitely a lot harder before I started weightlifting. I can eat a lot more now than when I was just trying to lose, and I don't really think about the scale these days. I still have to be mindful about how much I eat, but I don't go hungry any more.

    @mika145 I resisted it forever bc it's such a pain, but spending 6 weeks doing the TDEE spreadsheet clarified a lot for me. I don't count calories any more, but now I know what an average maintenance day looks and feels like. Happy I was able to give you a boost and best of luck!

    I started lifting in January, doing GZCLP. As part-time stay at home mom to two kids I can only consistently make it to the gym twice a week, so my strength gains are pretty moderate and my lifts haven't gone up by much. But I'm really, really happy with how much I've changed (physically and...
