Here’s an update I’m currently 119 pounds which is crazy to say lol I’ve been going to the gym I lost a bit of muscle but I’m working towards getting it back I’ve been eating Whole Foods and I honestly reccomend that instead of being on a calorie deficit and still eating fast food.
Combination of calorie deficit and walking. Started weight training this month to get more toned and stong! Progress of about 1 years and 8 months with a couple different maintenance phases in between.
It’s 77 days away until summer.
You still have time to get your summer body!
Some weeks on a slight deficit but I’m short so I look really boxy :( (I’m 5’1)
Help! I lost 4kg in 3 months, but I’m still yet to lose enough weight or fat for my liking. Any tips on what workouts I can do to achieve a better-looking physique that targets important areas? Clothing suggestions to match my body type are also appreciated!
Height: 6’2
Weight: 90kg
Training 7 days (PPL split)
Current lifts:
Deadlift: 217.5 for 4-5
Bench: 110- 3-4
Squat: 190-1-3
Main focus right now is improving lat width and rear delts for better V-taper.
Would appreciate advice on what to prioritize and if my back is lacking thickness or width.
I am 5’1 126 pounds, I used to weight 170 in 2024 but I’ve lost all the weight through cardio, I know you can’t spot reduce but Idk what to do anymore to get rid of my fat. I carry most of it on my stomach and face. Will loosing weight ever get rid of those lines under my eyes? I hate them they ruin all my pictures

I’ve been on Reta for about 5 weeks now and I don’t plan on stopping. I’ve lost about 15 pounds while preserving (if not still putting on some) muscle mass. My main goal was to get shredded for the summer. It has helped cut my food cravings and overeating substantially. It also helped with my nicotine and alcohol use so I was able to focus on my goals. Also Reta face is REAL! Face feels so much less bloated and jawline feels sharper. Haven’t had any side effects besides just not being hungry tbh. I’ll probably run my cycle to the beginning of June and post more results then. But for the time being I’m very happy with my progress!
I love walking and working out but im Wondering is it bad for fat loss and progress overall, I am 5'3 F 153 lbs, I strength train 5x a.day and walk 30k 6 days on average, should I continue the way or slow down, I'm also eating around 1800 for fat loss less

So this is what bullying looks like…
I genuinely don’t remember what I had commented and I can assure you it would never have been any sleazy comment on any of the women who post. I usually post questions to the OP regarding their journey to that form they have posted about.
It’s not that I’m devastated and what it back. It only feels a bit sad. I consider myself a beginner to fitness as I just started lifting never thought I would be treated like this but it’s okay. At least I have the access to view the posts, I’ll learn a lot from that as well.
