For every pound of fat I’ve lost, I’ve gained a pound of muscle. This was not my original plan, but I’m really liking the current outcomes! When I started working out and eating healthier in January, my goal was to lose 20-30 lbs. I was really frustrated around July because I wasn’t seeing any results and was really struggling to eat at a deficit.
I stayed on track and kept trying my best and in September I finally noticed that my body looks totally different and my clothes look better on my body. I now have visible abs, my hips are smooth and round, my butt is round and I have less visible cellulite. My back muscles show when I flex. My waist and belly are both smaller and so are my arms.
I’m lifting 20-30 lbs heavier than when I started, I can do 100 floors on the stairs in 20 minutes, I can hike carrying my child on my shoulders without getting sore the next day, I have a lot more energy to get on the floor and run and jump and play with my kid, I sleep better at night, I’m a better parent because I’m not fighting depression and fatigue.
I guess I’m posting this because I’m glad I didn’t give up in July, and even though my methods kinda changed from weight loss to body building, I’m still happy and inspired by this sub and all the information on macro tracking I learned here. I’m now about to try going low carb for 4 weeks just to see what happens and see if I can.
