@momofone1 Thank you, I appreciate all of this wisdom I’m getting!! It means a lot. I definitely don’t drink enough water. Period. I’m definitely taking more days off. And starting Creatinine. I struggle with protein. As I said, I’m not one for protein shakes, or protein powder. Just my...

@wareagle15 Can I PM you?

@johntn I sort of suspected something like that may be occurring. I’ve always had low level pain, even before I started exercising. I had my CRP tested once when my hands and feet were hurting; it was normal so it was just called arthritis. Starting HRT helped immensely and took that pain...

@jjrjr Having difficulty sifting through all the supplements that are out there. I’m extremely sensitive to anything artificial.

@jjrjr Yeah, I agree, definitely feel like pushing myself to go heavier, longer…all those things, is beneficial to my mental health. Being on this fitness journey really helped me through a lot, and I don’t want to slow down. I take magnesium for migraines but only 250mg a day. Oh, and would I...

@velveteyes79 Excellent advice, I will definitely change things up!

@zach84 Yes!!! Love both!

@zach84 It makes me feel old! Look like an old lady getting up from a chair! lol 😝

@zach84 I’m definitely going to try doing 2 day rest days minimum

@_%D7%A1%D7%AA Yes, I’m realizing that I’m pushing too much. Definitely not taking in enough protein either.

@lee Haha, definitely not a big eater! I’ve lost 26 pounds since last February (‘23), and I’m perfectly happy with my current weight of 129. I’m just maintaining my weight but still enjoy seeing my body transform into a leaner more muscular lady!

@smalltownyouthpastor Unfortunately I only have my own gym, no machines or cables there! I’m going to look in to supplements. There’s just so much conflicting information out there. Thank you!

@ann72 Thank you everyone for your support!! I think protein (lack of) is the problem. I don’t eat a lot of meat, no dairy, 2 eggs a day most days, no protein supplements of any kind. I’ll start looking into that, and creatinine. And…drink more water!

@ann72 Definitely muscle soreness. I’m extremely careful about form (best as I can be), and I’d freak out if my joints hurt because my mom had double knee replacements and I certainly don’t want to have that!

@johnredeemed103 And yes, it goes away after 24 hours

@johnredeemed103 Just like muscle soreness, after sitting down, when I go to get up I’m stiff and it’s so painful, but once I’m up, I’m fine.

@saycomasry Muscle, no joint pain

@damseremie Thank you!!

@damseremie I have to do all of that!

@nehemiah126 Supposed to be good for skin and hair too! 👩‍🦳
