    Frustrated over being very fat.

    @ms7dc I get it. I've made huge gains in strength and endurance but I still have the exact same potbelly. I track all my calories and eat only healthful food and great macros but I just always end up eating at maintenance because I'm hungry. I can't summon the willpower to cut those 300-500...

    14 years of lifting and hit a point where I can’t because of work — how can I motivate myself? 34/f

    @tangenica If you're not getting enough sleep you can't make up for it in motivation. You just don't have it in the tank.

    Frustrated over being very fat.

    @ms7dc Because volume measurements are unreliable. I've weighed a cup of cereal and it's way more than the weight they say is a cup.

    How much is a good caloric deficiency?

    @nuggets71 I was 201 lbs this morning. A week ago I was 208. I weigh 4lbs less first thing in the morning than I do last thing before bed. That's just pee, sweat and the energy I burn sleeping. If I poop that's another pound.

    Beginner Questions (Accessories, Volume, Recovery)

    @mhdagley When I started I exclusively used the weight machines at the gym. It was a good way to build some baseline strength and get used to lifting without worrying as much about form because they are basically idiot proof. I've only recently started with free weights and I'm loving it, but if...

    Frustrated over being very fat.

    @mrsmac0324 I wish more people knew this. It's drilled into us that what makes you fat is candy, soda and chips and not exercising. I've gained plenty of weight while eating mostly lean meats, vegetables and whole grains. That second helping of boneless skinless chicken, broccoli and brown rice...

    Critique My Routine

    @kyrie_eleison Unfortunately no matter how much I lose the potbelly is the last to go. When I was 20 I was scrawny but still had a belly. That's life I guess. I drink very little these days but I think I need to switch up my macros to 30% protein and cut out some carbs. Supposedly resistance...

    Critique My Routine

    @mindygail I track with MFP and it's actually closer to 2300. I'm maintaining the moment. MFP and Garmin think I should be losing with current intake and activity but I'm my real world experience I only lose if I'm under 2000. I do eventually want to lose another 25 pounds but I'm more focused...
