    Eating more protein when you don't like protein

    @skillz I really like Oikos Greek yogurt - it has 15-20g of protein depending on the flavor. I can’t have whey protein powder either so I like the chocolate Vega sport protein (pea protein)

    Am I doing body recomp correctly?

    @alex1234567890 I’m 5’3” 158 and I was told to eat 115g of protein a day. I think you might be able to increase protein! I definitely have the same body type (I carry my fat on my lower body for sure) so I know the struggle. I’ve been trying to lose as well for a really long time but I go from...

    I think I have to start tracking again I’ve been snacking too much/eating too much junk and it’s taking a toll on me. 5’2” 27F 127lb

    @adriana28 This is what I do! I always pre-track and basically eat the same breakfast and lunch and then rotate a couple dinners. I know (roughly) how many calories the dinners are too so I can stay within the calories! I’m sure he will be supportive! My husband is just happy that he doesn’t...

    I think I have to start tracking again I’ve been snacking too much/eating too much junk and it’s taking a toll on me. 5’2” 27F 127lb

    @adriana28 I feel this. I moved in with my bf, got engaged and married and I gained 20-30 lbs. I would start tracking again. Luckily my husband also tracks, but I don’t think there’s anything to be embarrassed about. You can have a chat with your bf and let him know this is something you would...

    I am so mad at myself for not strength training sooner

    @slant I agree. I find strength training boring but I’ve seen a ton of benefits!

    At home workouts

    @skymarie Yes I did before. I’m not a huge fan of peloton strength training but that sounds like a perfect routine!

    5'2" F 1600-1700 calories + some walking ?

    @francis_mcc Unfortunately it is. If I could eat 1700 calories I would be much happier! It’s been a learning an experience where I tried for over a year and didn’t lose any weight!

    5'2" F 1600-1700 calories + some walking ?

    @francis_mcc I do 1450-1500, weights, and walking (running sometimes). I have hypothyroidism so it makes losing more difficult

    5'2" F 1600-1700 calories + some walking ?

    @irishamerican4christ I’ve tried this before and it didn’t work for me. I ended up gaining more fat. I had 20 lbs to lose. I try to do 7K steps and I still can’t lose at almost 1600

    Nothing is working

    @warlord4747 Have you gotten blood work done? That sounds like me when I had undiagnosed thyroid issues. I think you need to eat more! I would eat closer to 1500 and focus on protein

    Vent …. I feel hopeless

    @stevensloan I was 100 lbs at 5’3” in high school. And now 160 😬 a lot of pizza and takeout and a thyroid disorder. Honestly just eat more oil, fats and possibly eat out more. It’s much more difficult to lose weight though

    How much protein is enough to loose fat but gain muscle about? 5’3 129.4 LBS 21 F

    @foulendeparis Oatmeal and protein bar for breakfast, turkey sandwich during lunch and a protein-based dinner (chicken, salmon, tacos, etc). If I’m low I will have Greek yogurt in my snack. That usually does the trick!

    How much protein is enough to loose fat but gain muscle about? 5’3 129.4 LBS 21 F

    @onlyheknows I’m 5’3” and I eat 115-120g of protein a day
  16. D

    I’m 5’4.5 and I weigh 146

    @judy123 I would say around 100g - on the high end it would be 110-115g.

    I hate working out

    @sriram I’ve learned that you can compare yourself to others. I love to eat but I just can’t eat as much as taller people or my husband! I’ve been trying to lose weight for a year so I feel this. Also screw those people who are saying rude things to you! They shouldn’t be commenting on your body...

    Switching to sculpt/low weight workouts to lean out?

    @virtualhope I would focus on cutting a little bit! I feel similar but I know I have fat over my muscles but I’ve gained muscles recently. Also maybe try doing less maybe? 4-5 is a lot with cardio. Maybe 2x spinning and 2-3 strength?

    5’0 and under … what’s your treadmill speed for walking?

    @uticus It depends. If it’s 1% incline I do 3.5-3.7. If it’s a 8-12% incline then it’s 3. My jog is 4.0-4.3. I’m 5’3”
