Hi everyone, I am 25F, 5’3” and currently weigh ~210lbs. I know I am overweight and I’m trying to do body recomposition so I can also build muscle and get stronger while I gradually lose fat. I’ve started doing weight lifting and some cardio at the gym 3x a week, I’m still very early in my journey but I’m wondering how much calories and protein should I be intaking according to my weight in order to build muscle? I’ve tried the online calculators but they are kind of confusing /: any suggestions or insight would be appreciated!
When i started my weight loss journey i was about 200lb i over-shot my target of 140 and now im about 135 lb. My BMI is 22. now, 2 years ago i decided to cut down on my coffee drinking as it would effect my migraines, and i have 1 cup of Nespresso at 9-10 am and one at 3 pm. recently as i always check my blood pressure, it was a bit higher. As i was losing weight my Blood pressure dropped more and more to Normal levels. in the last week we ran out of the yellow capsule (intensity 2) and all i had are purple ones which are much stronger (i think its 7 or 9). so i was wondering 2 things, the first and most important, now that i lost about 30% of my weight, is it possible coffee has a stronger effect on me now? and the second just if anyone knows, do the stronger Nespresso capsules are actually more strong? because they say its just a level of taste and bitterness or something. these 2 coffees a day are the last 2 "vices" I didn't change as I changed my life to the healthy side. I would rather not give it up, but if I must cut down I will and if I must cut it at all, than, ill guess ill have too.
Hi! I'm so glad I found this subreddit. I'm starting my healthy weight lose journey, not that I haven't tryed before but this time I wanna do it the right way. I currently weight 103 kg, I'm 174cm tall. My goal weight is 80 kg, and build muscle while at it.
As a university student with busy schedule, I started going to the gym on Mondays and Thursdays for 3 weeks now. I'm stuggling to find a well balanced diet that keeps me satisfied and full + I fast abt 18 hours. I also don't know how much should I eat (protein, fat..), I don't have time for counting calories either. Is there any quick effective tips? I don't know if I'm doing enough really or if I'mdoing it right...
I'd be happy if you also recommend any beginner frindly workouts!
Thank you in advance.
Hey everyone, so I'm a teen (don't wanna say my real age) and weigh ~170, and let me just say that I'd not ideal. I've always had a dislike for my body and tend to compare myself to others, a lot. I also just feel junk carrying around dead weight all the time and feel uncomfortable in my body, I want to make a change. My problem is that I constantly snack a lot and often overeat even after acknowledging I'm full, I don't know what it is for me. I know I should not eliminate foods or go on strict diets because I'm still developing. What can I do to stay motivated and make some progress? Sorry for my rant and thank you to all who respond. (Edit: I am also working out lightly 5 days a week, I lift weights but don't do cardio, will start biking to school next year so that may help)

So it has been around 4 months, with me doing gym. For two months it was very regular, as I had a personal trainer. But then it reduced to like 3 times a week. I am happy with the pace and comfortable with it as well.
I recently lost 10kg exact (same weighing scale) and touched the 8X.X kg mark. It was a big thing to go into this range maybe after 6-7 years. Post this, people started noticing. Like few people saw my pics and said I looked fitter. One of my colleague also commented on if I have been losing weight. Even during a random interview, I had an older pic on my resume, to which he said you look different.
All this made me feel so happy, that its getting recognizable finally. I want to and plan to continue the journey. The gym plan could go on and off due to other commitments kicking in, for the next 6 months, but I am hopeful to stay active, be a bit calorie conscious, but have fun in the journey, which I have been for the past 4 months.
P.S.: I know there is no point to this post, but just wanted to share an achievement like feeling, and hope it motivates someone. That if I can you all can too. Its not difficult, it's just a long process and delicate too.
Hey y’all,
My last job turned out to be incredibly stressful for a year and that led to me putting on around 40-50 pounds of pure fat. For a year, I did nothing but sit at my desk and eat. Had no time for meal prep, working out and was even working weekends.
Now, I quit the job, moved to a new city and have a much more manageable work load. I’m currently traveling till the end of the year but starting January, I want to take full control my fitness, my weight and work actively on fixing everything wrong with my body. I do have some money that I can contribute towards this cause but I’m keen on getting opinions on if I should invest in a nutritionist or a personal trainer more? I hear all about how diet is 80% of the journey and working out is just 20%. However, I know I’m capable of making calorie controlled meals but it’s about sticking to them that I find difficult. I also know I’m capable of working out on my own for 5-6 days a week but lack motivation on that aspect too.
I’m actively looking for opinions from folks who’ve gone through a journey and could provide insights into which of the two choices might be more valuable;
About me: 29 M, 6 feet and I currently weigh 280lbs.
Thanks!
I’m starting the gym soon and want to loose some body fat and gain some muscle, cardio’s not a problem for me cause I’m a distance runner, but I have no clue where to start to gain muscle, should I be doing strength workouts threw out my whole body? Is it even possible to loose weight and gain muscle at the same time? I don’t want to be like jacked or anything just toned so it’s noticeable that I have some muscle on me.
Any tips or advice would be so appreciated because I genuinely know nothing and I’m starting soon, or any workouts that helped you achieve a toned look or gain some muscle id appreciate it
15(M) 80kg 187cm So currently I’m in school and i wan’t to look a little bit leaner. For reference I’m not overweight my bmi is normal and I have a fair bit of muscle. But I just started doing a 2 meal a day and 1 snack diet and I must admit here it’s not making me feel the happiest. Can I just not worry about it for now until I finish school I’ve got about 6 month left of it now. I’m not saying I’m just gonna go and eat crap I will still eat healthy just without the deficit. I do exercise I cycle to school 11-12km in total 5 days of the week and I hit the gym 4 days a week.
I’m a 15-year-old girl, 5 feet tall, and I currently weigh 135 pounds, which is the most I’ve ever weighed. I’ve noticed that my stamina isn’t where I’d like it to be, and overall, I don’t feel very active. I’m looking to get into cardio exercise but I live in an area where it snows a lot, and I don’t have access to a treadmill or outdoor space that’s easy to use for walking or running. I want to start improving my fitness and building my stamina, but I’m not sure where to begin. I’m interested in any tips, suggestions, or guidance you might have to help me get started. I’m also a bit nervous since I’m not used to regular exercise, so anything that feels manageable would be really appreciated.
I’ve been thinking a lot about improving my fitness, especially because I know it can make me feel better physically and mentally. I’ve always wanted to be more active, but it’s hard to stay motivated or know how to begin, especially when the weather is really bad, and I can’t get outside. That’s why I’m hoping to focus on indoor cardio options that will be easier to stick with in the long run, and that I can gradually build up to as my stamina improves. I’ve read that starting slow and working up from there is key, and I definitely don’t want to push myself too hard right away.
I know there are a lot of different options for cardio workouts, and I’m hoping to find something that works for me. I’m interested in hearing what kind of cardio exercises people recommend for someone who’s just starting out. I know things like walking, running, or biking are great for stamina, but with the snow and lack of a treadmill, I’m not sure how to go about it. I’d love to hear what others have done when they’re limited by space or weather and how they’ve managed to stay consistent with their cardio routines.
If anyone has suggestions on how to keep myself motivated, or how to deal with feeling out of shape when starting a new fitness routine, that would be amazing. I’m really excited to make a change, and I’d love to hear what works for you. Whether it’s workouts you enjoy, apps you use, or strategies to stay consistent, I’m open to anything that can help me build stamina and feel more active and energized each day
So as someone with diagnosed chronic lung problems, I have avoided exercise like the plague for a while. I got a new inhaler prescription and a steroid and am trying some for the first time since highschool. I'm struggling with balancing weightlifting and cardio. currently, I aim for 8-10k steps per day by walking to class, around the house, etc, but have incorporated at least 4 (aim for 5) days at the gym. I'm trying to figure what is the best treadmill workout for someone shamefully out of shape. I'm currently doing 5% incline, with 5 min at 3.0, then 5 min at 3.5 (which is just barely not jogging for me: I'm short) and alternate with one minute at the end of 4.5 running and a cool down at 1.5. this workout gets me at a target heart rate of around 150 to 180 and and is definitely challenging but doable. my Fitbit has it as moderate to vigorous exercise
I'm also trying weightlifting after cardio with a basic arm, back, and chest routine but I'm only able to do like 15/20lb weights.
I guess I'm wondering if this is effective exercise and where I can go from here to improve. Stairmaster gave me about 8 min before my O2 levels dipped and my heart rate got up to 197. Feeling a little pathetic tbh, but want to improve my fitness! the calorie deficit is working and I'm losing weight but I really want fitness as well.
(also I'm extremely low income so I cannot afford a trainer or pay for a training program.) tips and tricks are much appreciated
49M, 6’0 about 260. I have been going to a gym for about a month now, 5 days a week. I have no idea what I’m doing and am looking for advice. I usually spend about 20 minutes on the treadmill. Somewhere around 1.3 mi. Then I basically go to every weight machine in the place and do a certain weight, 10 reps, 3 sets. I keep notes on my phone about what machine and what weight. When I feel like I can easily do the 10 x 3, I increase the weight. I feel much better after doing this and my clothes feel a little better but my weight hasn’t went down. I assume this is because I probably am burning fat and developing a little more muscle so it appears to be a wash. Like I said though, I really don’t have a clue what I am doing so any advice would be appreciated!
Hey all- first post here.
I’ve been attempting to commit to weight loss for years- and since being off work the last two months I’ve gained excessive weight, and I was already overweight before.
My main struggle is this: forgetting I’m trying to diet. It is almost like takeout food and junk are so habitual to me that I honestly will get it and then later go “oh crap, I’m supposed to be dieting. Oh well, I’ll start tomorrow” and then I’ll continue to go on a full junk binge. Sweets, saltiness, you name it.
I tried the thing where your wallpaper is a notes app of all the things you want to do to be happy, in which I included gym time, walks, and healthy eating. Still would manage to just get used to it and overlook it.
Pretty much since I was 15 (I am now 28) fast food or some greasy takeout has always been in my diet. It genuinely feels like a habit that can’t be broken because I barely recognize it when I’m actively doing it.
Anyone else has similar experiences? How’d you manage to get over it? I’m genuinely considering some kind of hypnotherapy at this point.
Thanks for reading and I appreciate any responses. :)
Actually, i have start two month ago, and i have lost around 13 pound.
So i'm a 27male, and i weighted 245 pound two month ago. I got to this state after a bad period of my life, and i ate a lot to find confort, taking a lot of bad habit in the process. Things did get better mentally, but my bad habits were still there and the weight keep increasing.
Until 2 month ago, i went back to a school that is very far from my home, so just to get there i have to move à lot more then what à usually do. And so decide to also go to the gym at the same time, at least 3 times à week-end. And the weight start to decrease.
Now i m gonna try to do more chore around the house and est healthier hoping that the fat will keep meeting.
I'm happy with the numbers but when it come to the mirror i can't see any differences, is that normal?
I eat way too much sodium (4,000mg+) a day. Mainly to reach my 1g per body weight goal for protein intake. I’m curious though, if I start eating fruits and low sodium foods and hit the goal of about 2,000mg of sodium daily, how will that affect my physical appearance?
I am 6’2 190 and feel like I store most of my weight in my belly. I’m wondering if that is mostly water retention? I have cut all the way down to 160 and have been eating the same high sodium diet but my belly still isn’t flat.
I am wondering if it’s due to high water retention?
How do I actually lose weight? So l am I minor and l'm 187 afab and 5'10 and I want to gain muscle but lose weight and I don't know how to do so l was never taught any healthly food or stuff in my house so l don't know what to do and feel embarrassed to ask anyone in person and I can't just eat all fancy rich vegetables and stuff cause my family's a bit poor growing up I was always the fat kid and I don’t have body issues right now or at least not a lot and I mainly want to be stronger and be a bit skinnier than right now but in the past if I ever lost weight I gained it back in a week and I don’t really understand why and YouTube has NOT helped me understand what I should do and I can’t afford and am also to embarrassed to use an app to try and lose weight and I’ve tried a lot and I know this goal is really big but I want to be down to 140 ISH by around may or at least 160 just to be a bit thinner but yea pls help a newbie out
I’m near the end of a sort-of-diet (been calorie counting for a few months now, on-and-off light exercise.) I’ve lost about 30 lbs and have already passed multiple “goal” weights before settling on my final goal. I’m currently still in a deficit, since I’ve heard of people losing a little bit more than their goal to account for water weight and glycogen stores being replenished during maintenance.
My question is, how much lower than my goal do I need to go? I’m currently 3 pounds below what I want, but my patience is wearing kind of thin. I’m cold all the time, I’ve got brain fog, and I’m constantly thinking about how to stay in my deficit. I was fine going slow and steady for a while, but it’s finals week and I hate dedicating so much time to something that’s interfering with my studying. But, I also worry that if I stop before I’ve adequately accounted for regain, I won’t have the discipline to go back to dieting.
Should I stick it out? Or is it time to start increasing back to maintenance?
I’m a 5’6 138 lb woman trying to lose weight with minimal exercise. I don’t like working out and walking for an hour or more sucks as well. I’m just wondering though if I can lose weight and keep it off for good by eating 1300 calories which would create a deficit of 400 since 1700 calories is my maintenance. A little bit of walking mixed in from college and that’s another 100 calories and so I’ll be in a 500 calorie deficit everyday.
Is this sustainable? I’ve tried losing weight eating only 1200 calories before but i also walked a lot during that time so I didn’t end up losing weight since I would resort to binging. Adding in walking probably created an extreme deficit.
I’m getting really burnt out 😞
I’m losing motivation to stay in my deficit. It’s getting harder for me to stay below 1900 cals and still feel full and satisfied.
With thanksgiving and my son’s birthday there’s been treats and cake and lots of celebration days. And leftovers.
I am getting so tired of meal prepping and being so excited about it and then not losing any weight. I’ve been stuck around 214-215 for like 3 months… I realize it’s because I’m not truly in a deficit most days but still. I’m just so tired and frustrated.
With daylight savings I’m not going on my 2-3 mile walks every day like I was over the spring and summer which definitely isn’t helping. I’d like to clarify here, I stopped walking because my area is not safe in the dark and my only free time for walks is before or after work which is… when it’s dark.
Taking this week to eat at maintenance calories and breathe a bit. But idk what I’m gonna do moving forward this is getting really hard to stick to.

My 10 year old daughter deals with constant food noise and I'm not sure the best way to help her navigate the challenges. If she knows that there are "treats" in the house, she gets completely fixated, obsessed, and distracted until she can have one. One of the only things that motivates her is food. I don't want to make things worse by hiding snacks or constantly commenting on her food choices but I do want to be supportive in helping her learn about this part of herself.
She has put on significant weight in the last 2 years and I'm feeling anxious that she will be bullied or excluded as she moves into middle school. It's also bringing up trauma from my challenges with body image that began around 5th grade. I know that there's nothing i can do to "fix" this and that she needs to lead any efforts in making changes but it's weighing on me.
For parents that have experienced this with your kids, how did you handle it.
I appreciate any insight.
Edit: I should’ve been more clear about the situation. We absolutely do NOT stock our house full of unlimited sugary sweet junk food. We occasionally have potato chips and crackers which seem reasonable to me but I may stop buying them.
We try to teach her that food is fuel and positively acknowledge healthy food choices when she makes them.
I’m feel myself starting to spiral mentally, and it is affecting me in many areas. I feel that I really have an addiction with food. Is there anyone who lost weight successfully in the 300+ range that can give me some tips? I just feel like I’m stuck in the same cycle repeatedly, and I am really ready to get things together.
I have successfully got started doing pushups everyday over the last month and half, so I have made progress there in developing that habit. I have done water fasting for a few days before, but every time I try it again, it just seems so much harder to do.
Any tips and ideas are appreciated, no matter how small.

Finally I've accepted the fact that i cant just add things to my day, when i have never done them before.
I've learnt to set actual realistic goals, and i actually find it more fun than adding everything all at once.
A few weeks ago, i made a promise to myself that i would lift weights AND walk a 5k 6 out of 7 days a week. Now whilst i was already walking 5k, it was only 3-5 days a week, but i had never lifted weights before.
I tried this set up, and, as you would expect, failed on day 2. Nothing went well, i felt exhausted and lacked energy, and like i was stupid for even trying.
The past few days, though, ive been focused on walking. 5 days a week this time, hopefully not between 3-5 days a week, unless something happens. Im not gonna be too hard on myself, but pushing a little bit to consistently reach the higher end of my range, every week.
I've asked about lifting weights, and whilst i agree i should start, im going to start with 2 days a week, when i hit 185lbs. Thats the tip top of the Overweight BMI range, for me.
im adding things, slowly. taking things slowly. ive already lost almost 40lbs, and want to lose another 50lbs, so adding things slowly is how im gonna do this.
thank you for reading, i just wanted to rant about my methods and slight struggle :)
I have hit a stage where i have noticably lost weight, but also that alot of fat is now loose and jiggly so im getting closer to the end but still a fair amount of effort time and sacrifice to achieve the final goal
The only problem now is well multiple different things
my clothes are getting too big . Belts dont fit jeans dont fit
ive a bit to go before i get past that potato stage and become lean which will probably be quite bizzare to see how my face changes after 15 years on and off of being overweight
im at a stage i want to eat more , a week of steaks goujons , salmon lots of fruit and veg and some whiskey and beer ultimatley this will set me back but dieting as severley as i have must be taking a toll because its all i think about which makes me draw into question why im doing it in the first place
Obviously my health being 34 it is important and alot has improved blood pressure cardiovasuclar sleep stress my energy levdls will improve once my diet stabilises aswell so really looking forward to final balancdd diet with more cycling and exercise
ive lost 30kg in 8 months . And probably another 10-15lbs to go so it has been very time consuming .
And i. At the stage i want to finish with this diet and focus on other things i have an obcessive mindset and id like to transition from this diet into a leaner healthier version but without needing alot of time to adjust.
Alot of weightloss can be weird for your perception ive been overweight for 7 years and before that 5 years . So within 8 months im probably about the same weight i was about 12 years ago which is strange to comprehend to be honest
So im at a new stage of weight loss but as i get leaner i realise how much of an obcession its been
An obcession i hope i can move past and then onto a new goal . So not quite there yet but getting to that stage i need to start thinking about whats next and continue to lean out and adjust to my new body weight.
I.actually enjoyed the obcessive weight cut i think now its near the end it will take time to plot a new course of action .
Im.fairly built so dont need to lift a lot . But myt get into cycling and then eating a fuck tonne of clean food and veggies everyday and maintain and exercise for the fun of it my energy levels more stable i will have to.focus on something new
Dieting is all consuming its great to see actual progress but wow its really takes up all my time and focus but is great to have a goal and see progress but i hope noe i can focus on so many other things . Hopefully now i can focus more on that and not so much on catabolism , restriction and sacrifice . Well everything takes some sacrifice
But yeah roll on 2025 i should be finished by end of january or february
Leanest i will have bedn since i was early 20s
It will probably end up march or may bevause this is how dieting goes i hate it but i love it
I'm cold all the time. I'm not gonna make it through winter now that I've lost 60 lbs of insulation.
Cross winds catch me off guard. I guess I don't have that extra weight to keep me on the ground.
Tons of energy. I can go hours working out in the yard and sheds without taking a break now, when it used to be a couple breaks an hour.
My legs got longer. Or it seems that way. I know I can't grow vertically at 51, but my pants are further up my ankles now lol. I'm not hiking them up like Steve Urkel, either. I guess I'm heading to 34 leg...just feels odd.
Even my feet for skinnier. Didn't think that could be a thing, but here I am trying my shoes tighter.
Anyhoo, a little humor I hope to help folks along. :)
I am 175 cm, approx. 5'9 male and weighs 91.5 kg, or 202 lbs. I used to weigh 98 kg and dropped down to 84 kg at one point before rebounding. I have noticeable muscle due to resistance training and can do 6 back pullups on a good day. My relaxed arms are 38 cm, or 15 inch circumference. My waist size is around 39 inches, or 99 cm. I was planning on losing weight until my abs appear, which even at 84 kg it is far from showing. I think I will probably have visible belly fat until I get under 80 kg and abs wouldn't appear until I get under 75 kg, which makes me think 72 kg is a good weight for my abs to finally become noticeable.
This is just me venting, really.
I've been on a weight loss journey basically my entire adult life (ups and downs are real), and after having totally let everything go last year with a sudden death in the family, I've finally got the motivation to get to this again. I have a lot of weight to lose and I know that slow and steady is the race but man.
I was losing 0.2 or 0.4 kg every two days for about a week, which is super motivating! While watching what I eat and working out (I do boxing). But this week, I've been gaining 0.2kg daily and it's so disheartening. I know it's normal and thinking back I probably haven't been drinking enough water. But just yesterday I was out walking for about an hour and a half, and yet I'm still gaining. ugh.
Being female I also know that periods and all matter, but as mine just finished I was sorta expecting this week to go well. v.v
Today I'll do my best to drink water, work out and do everything as usual and not let the disappointment get to me. After all, fluctuations are super common and a really big reason for why you shouldn't weigh yourself daily -- I know this logically, but it's hard not to feel disappointed. Especially early on when I've decided to start this again, I think I really need the push of seeing the number go down. :(
Hi all! I’ve met my goal weight through dietary changes and exercise. I use MyNetDiary to track meals, nutrition, calories in/out.
it was great for weight loss, but I’m finding it lacking for weight maintenance. It’s frustrating that it doesn’t account for “normal” weight fluctuations of a pound or two and insists on calling it ”weight gain” in the weekly recap emails.
I’m looking for something with more positive/neutral terminology and a more intuitive understanding of regular fluctuations that occur due to water weight, etc.
Anyone know of a good app for this?
I'm at a place in life where it's all about better choices. I've been consistently walking good walks and watching all I ingest for about 2 weeks now but the scale went up still and it's making me kind of hopeless.
Either I'm doing something seriously wrong or I'm just not getting it. I'm not someone that can get fitness into my lifestyle without overhauling a lot of how I live and I know that's going to bomb out at some point but I really thought with the amount of walking and food watching it would've atleast START to make a difference.
Is there anyone out there with some advice or personal experience that could maybe explain what I'm doing wrong?
Last week I weighed in at my lowest, 74.2kg (I am 5”10 for reference looking to go down to 70kg). For some reason I binged about 8k calories in the span of 2 days. I want to weigh in on Friday (4 days after my binge). My maintenance cals are 2200 and I exercise everyday, burning approx extra 400-500 cals according to treadmill calculators. (I don’t include these figures in my cal deficit). I’ve done the maths and technically I wouldn’t have gained any weight if I ate at 1200 for 4 days after (averaging my daily cals to about 2100 for the past 6 days, including the binge). I guess my question is… how inflamed will the scale be? Scientifically I shouldn’t have gained any fat (maybe max 0.2kg) but would my water weight be high or something? I am asking because I am paranoid and do not want to spiral if I see i’ve gained 1kg + on the scale as I fear this would worsen my mindset. I have lost 60lbs in my journey but for some reason this part is the hardest!
Hello everyone!
Day 3! I hope yours was fabulous.
Let’s talk goals!
Fruit or veg with every meal, one piece of cake a week: 🫐🍌with breakfast, veggie pasta made of lentils & zucchini for lunch & roasted cauliflower with dinner.
Maintenance & pre log meals: Yep. I prelogged through Friday. Makes it so much easier to just say no because it’s not in the plan.
Don’t spend $ outside of preset weekly budget: On it.
Weigh in daily to establish trend weight: Weighed in this morning. Wearing fitbit.
Find a way to enjoy moving my body everyday: Punched the bag and stationary bike. 3/3 days.
Journal for two minutes every morning: Got it this morning. 3/3 days.
Today's gratitude or laugh list: Today, I’m grateful for the cuddles I got this morning from my kitty. I laughed at a social media reel a friend sent me.
Meditate (sensory grounding) for 5 minutes to combat hyper vigilance: Going to hit this up before bed.
Self-care activity for today: I’m planning to do a face mask before bed at the very least.
How did I do yesterday? C I had dessert after I posted, and I did not need it. And it upset my tummy.
That’s me, let’s hear from all you wonderful people!
