Protein and lifting weights is a game changer! (For weight loss!)

I know I’ve been asking for advice about how to get better results on this page, but I am really proud of how my physique has changed. After I started factoring in my macros and really paying attention to having protein in my diet (amongst other things), I have seen a huge (although subtle) change in my muscle definition. Before it was quite hard to get that “toned” look, I had been working out consistently and eating intuitively and only drinking protein shakes just for muscle reparation (not protein maintenance), but now I can see just how exciting it is to shape your body to how you want it. I had tricked myself into believing cardio and low protein would keep me from “bulking up” and getting “too big” by a woman’s standard of muscle but now I realize that having more lean mass as a result of body weight strength training that I was completely wrong. Counting macros and weight training (with lighter weights and higher volume) really has changed how I view health. I feel so in tune with my body and I am excited!
