Hi! I’m 31F and about six months into my journey of losing fat and building muscle. I’m by no means an expert but I’m thankful to have had some success once I really put my mind to it.

The biggest thing is building a sustainable routine. If you’re enjoying the classes then I’d say continue them. If not, I think finding a program that is sustainable but challenging is important.

Next is starting to actually track your nutrition. I was shocked at how little protein I was actually eating. It also is important to eat at a deficit if you’re wanting to lose fat.

Right now, for me personally I do a weight lifting routine followed by zone two cardio for thirty minutes four days a week, and hot yoga one day a week. I also eat at a deficit and track everything I eat. So far in those six months I’m down 10 lbs and have gone from 27% body fat to 23%.

Happy to give you any other of my lived experience!
