    Should I eat 1200cal or more...or less?

    @voxmelancholiae None of those. TDEE calculators don’t work well for petite folks. Maintain (and really maintain, not go below) a small/moderate deficit, as small of a deficit as you can. Focus on strength training and prioritize protein. Progress won’t be overnight but will be more sustainable...

    Where Do I Even Start?

    @_youngboolingbhris_ One of the biggest mistakes people make is to try to overhaul everything all at once. Picking one or two things to focus on makes it more sustainable, and sustainable > nothing. Once you got the first things as habits, then you can add on more. Progress will also be motivating.

    Where Do I Even Start?

    @drummer96 You can, just keep protein up and don’t go too much in a deficit. If you’re really trying to pack on muscle, you might be able to eat in a surplus, though I think that’s something for later on.

    @bluestarsky A year, but definitely different body composition. My youngest is 5 now and I’ve totally recomped since then.

    Was always starving in the morning after eating breakfast and finally took a look at the amount of protein I was getting

    @rosiem I do 1/3 cup coach’s oats, 1 scoop protein powder, 3 tbsp egg whites, a little nut butter, hemp and cacao nibs. I’ll usually have collagen coffee or soy milk latte with it, 30ish grams.
