My highest weight at 5'9" was 214 lbs, got down to 170 and then kept it off for two years. I LOVED my body at 170. I was eating well, lifting weights, and I'm naturally tall and muscular so I was so incredibly stoked over my appearance. I was obsessively at the gym all the time and I had never felt more confident in my life.
One terrible holiday season made me gain a bunch because I ate like shit, and since then I've been trying to lose weight. Currently at 186 and feeling like shit about myself. I didn't think 15 lbs could alter my appearance so much but my face is chubby again and my cute clothes dont fit anymore.
I meal prep every week and I'm going to start doing cardio several times a week at the gym and schedule eating times and prep healthier meals. It's hard for me to count calories because I cook everything from scratch mostly and I have a hard time figuring out how many calories are in things. I'll work on it.
I CAN DO IT, IT'S ONLY 15 LBS! I CAN BE A MUSCULAR AMAZON WOMAN LIKE I ONCE WAS!
Question: Should I do cardio or lift weights to lose weight? I love lifting weights but I thought cardio was better for fat loss. Thanks!
