petite fitness

I keep seeing everyone with all these cool finds, then I search up the price and I’m like -😳 I’m not talking about this sub specifically (I don’t think I’ve seen it here) but more so other fitness and diet related subs. I struggle to meet my protein goals so badly. Like the volume of meat you...

4ft 9.5 inches. SW: 109, CW: 105 Hi all! Newish to weight loss, started about a month ago. I’d like to get down about 10-12 more pounds to be around 93-95 ish but I’ve heard things in the past along the lines of losing weight too fast or being jn a deficit too long could lead you to messing up...

Hi friends, When I was unemployed, I used to work out five times a week, including three times at the park doing calisthenics. Now that it’s summer where I live (over 90 degrees everyday), it takes a lot more energy for me to get out and exercise, especially since I have PMDD. I also got quite...

I have to get this off my chest. I have a twin sister. I weigh about 130 and she is about 120. I’ve been lifting weights for about 7 years almost consistently and my sister has started in the gym for the past year and a half. My sister has always had a pear shape, even when we were children...

Just wondering if anyone here that used to have a much larger chest has been able to reduce it significantly by getting a low enough body fat percentage. I've always had a large chest in proportion to my size and I would rather not as it gets in the way of sports, running, fitting into clothes...

Greetings! Like many of you, I decided to start 2024 with a goal to get in shape and lose some weight. I'm in my mid-thirties, 5'3, and have usually averaged my adult life around 140-145ish, and that's always been with a "gee, it would be great to get down to 135 mindset". These past two...

sw-150lbs cw-117 goal weight- 110lbs. I’ve been gaining and losing the same 1-2 lbs for the past month it feels like. I religiously weigh and track my intake based off my tdee which is 1500 calories for a 500 cal deficit. I did up my daily steps to 10k last week after only getting around an...

I know this is probably a silly question. I’ve tried to get into strength training many times (I’ve tried the gym, machines, body weight exercises, and exercise bands… the only things I’ve really cared for are body weight and band exercises). Every time, I inevitably get bogged down trying to...

I've been trying to lose weight and can't do IF because I'm afraid it'll trigger my past ED restricting habits. I'm in a calorie deficit and don't have breakfast until 7-8 and typically stop eating around 7/8pm. I wanted to do 16:8 but with school n such it's just not realistic and I'll end up...

I am 5.2 (162cm) F, 31 yrs, 63 kg. My goal is to Lose Fat for now and then do Body Recomposition. Hence, I have decided to do Strength training after experimenting with Cardio (Jump roping for 30 mins + 15 mins HIIT workout), which I couldn't keep up for very long. So, Starting from this New...

I didn't take "before" photos when I first started, but I love data and have tracked my changes since starting a weightlifting / strength training program. Background info: I am 35F 5'2" and around 130 pounds. I started the year completely sedentary at 165 pounds but lost the first 30 or so...

Hello everyone I’m 5’3 27 years old and I weigh 130 I’m trying to get down to 125 or lower so I’ve been eating around 1300 calories or less a day. I walk 8-10k steps a day and every day including the weekends I go to the gym and do the elliptical 20mins and strength training mainly in my arms...

Hello everyone:) I am a 26 year old woman and I am 155 cm tall. I had an inbody measurement at 14.10. 2023. The results were: Visceral fat: 33.3 Weight: 47.1 Muscle mass: 21.6 Fat mass 7.0 Fat percentage: 14.9 Waist, hip ratio: 0.82 BMR: 1235 kcal My fats are really low and the person...

I see so many conflicting opinions and statements online it's so confusing, so I am hoping to hear from some people with experience! I'm 155cm and 61kg. Over the years I have bounced between all sorts of methods (heavy weights and squats, low weight/high rep) but tbh I've never stuck with it...

I had a dexa scan in July that said I was 131 lbs and 37% bf. Ouch. So since then I have lost 14 lbs. I recently bought a Garmin Index smart scale. It says I’m 115-117 and 35-36% bf. I was so disappointed bc I figured losing over ten pounds would make at least a small dent in bf%. I’m not...

I wanted to share my progress to remind my fellow shorties that change takes time, but if you're consistent change does happen! It can seem like not much is happening week-to-week when the weight loss is so slow. Hang in there, keep at it, and use something in addition to the scale to mark your...

The one that makes you think you’ve got a big secret hack?

Hey I keep maintaining around 147-145 and my goal is 135 for now. I really want to strengthen and trim out. But I eat soo much. On 2k calories today. I really crave the energy. I walked 8k steps thinking id stop at 1500 calories. But the hungry pangs show up.k didn't meal plan . I just...

For whatever reason, some days I just feel embarrassed to be alive. I think part of it is a bit of social anxiety, but don’t truthfully know. With this, I feel embarrassed of my home gym. I bought a squat rack and inherited a treadmill from my parents. I have a few weights, a bench, and a...
