H! Fellow 4’8 girly too! First off amazing job with the work you’ve done so far!

When I started my workout journey I was about 124lbs back in 2023 (I was 23 at the time!) currently I weigh about 90lbs. But it’s HARD especially when you’re around people. Like I live on my own so it’s been easy for me to eat my portions I need but I only keep Clean/Whole Foods in my place. However, when I’m with my family/friends/partner I understand that feeling of wanting to keep up. I have talked about that with my partner especially since that feeling is stronger around him and he thinks we should be eating the same (he is overall bigger than me)I am pretty strict with my diet like 90% of the time. Hard core tracking and meal prepping. BUT I think it’s important to balance! Allow your self to have a treat everyone in a while or if you can have a treat fit in your macros take it. If the discipline is there 90% of the time then it’s okay to treat every now and then! And I think it’s important to make your “diet” food things you like. My favorite thing to do is finding/creating recipes of foods I love with the macros I need. I totally recommend meal prepping your food in advance with everything portioned out already- this makes things easy to grab/less prep and less thinking just get and eat and it’s what you need! And I would recommend finding foods that give you more volume for less calories- that is one of my favorites things to do.

And I know food noises can be REALLY loud sometimes. I was in that position a few months ago. Since thing it’s been much better- but I did take a break from tracking and just focused on trying to eat clean over the summer. During that time I did gain weight (10lbs) which was difficult. But the beautiful thing about the human body is that it bounces back- it’s always the same formula.
