    Help! Can’t get rid of cellulite on my thighs and bum

    @corinth77777 Cellulite is fat deposits under the skin. It's incredibly normal / common in women & nothing to be embarrassed by. It's not gross, wrong, or shameful. To reduce the appearance you need a reduction of fat. If your body shape is pear, you may never completely diminish the...

    Haven’t lost any inches despite 5-6 days of exercise for 6-7 weeks

    @athleteto TDEE calculators are total estimations. What I do is calculate my TDEE as completely sedentary as a jump off point. I use a few calculators then use the mean. Then I calculate my workout calories independently to add on. So for example: - Calculator says 1500 TDEE for sedentary...

    Haven’t lost any inches despite 5-6 days of exercise for 6-7 weeks

    @athleteto It doesn't matter if you do or don't as long as your remain in a deficient. It's personal preference. The calories burned during your work out may also not be accurate. So be careful eating them back! (Your watch says you burned 250 calories, I would believe 200 calories.) That's...

    What is the core equivalent of walking, i.e. a natural motion you can just do more of to use those muscles without “exercises”?

    @called2 Engaging your core correctly in all activities (walking, cleaning, stairs). Good posture. Learning to do proper stomach vacuums. Or my fave: balance! Balance boards are really enjoyable for me. Or skateboarding/longboarding if you're into it. Also standing on one leg, holding yourself...

    Idk how ppl in this sub are able to do low cal w/ 100 g+ of protein daily and workout so rigorously- I’m struggling with 1700 cals😭

    @dikaioumenoi It'd be easier to give recommendations if you could be more specific about what you're consuming. For example, my breakfast would be an English muffin, whipped cream cheese, egg. This is 225 cal & 12g protein. Then I'd have a Fairlife protein shake after workout for 150 cal & 30g...

    @dikaioumenoi This is wild - what brands are you consuming? What country are you in? Today I'll have ate 1350cal with 98g protein & I wasn't even trying.

    What to do next?

    @gordon_b Do you know how much you're actually burning? How long / intense are your work out sessions? I'm wondering if you may not be as big of a deficient as you think to notice weight loss. If your TDEE is 1900 for example then you'd be seeing half a pound of weight loss per week. Often...
