Hi! 33/f with a 73 lb weight loss so far. I’m looking to transition from losing to maintaining/toning and would love some advice!

Hey everyone!

Like my title said I’m a 33 yo female, 5’2 and have lost 73 lbs so far, which brought me down to 137. I started January 2019 and did my best to stick to 1200 calories a day/ spinning 2x a week at a minimum. I also did intermittent fast and prefer to exercise fasted.

I’d like to transition into a more comprehensive exercise routine but I’ll admit I’m a little lost. I know calorie counting isn’t for everyone- but it works for me. I would like to start eating more, and exercising more as well. Ideally, I’d spin 3x a week and incorporate yoga/strength training into the mix at least twice a week.

I don’t have a goal weight, but right now I’d categorize myself as skinny-fat (at least SKINNIER-fat) and I’d like to be less...floppy. I know I do still have a few pounds to lose to get to a healthier weight, but how do I transition from straight losing to continuing to lose while also gaining muscle?

My question for yous is...all the questions. For those of you who have got to this point- what worked for you? What didn’t? how did you get over the mental block of eating more? I’ve struggled with weight my whole life and for the first time I don’t feel like I’m in a jail when it comes to food. I’d like to keep that mentality going and I’d love some help with the transition.

Sending positive vibes out there to all my losing buddies!
