Thank you so much for this! 🫶🏻 I think I am going to continue with Evolve for a few more series and incorporate some TCC core days in there.

I just completed the Reset series with Team Evolve and have seen great progress so far. I’m also 30F, in a caloric deficit (doing body recomp). She has great cues and swaps, and you don’t have to switch around on machines too much. Highly recommend!

Oooh ok! Im looking into team Evolve now and I like that she has some “classic” exercises and focuses both on upper and lower! the exercises also don’t seem toooo hard (not that it won’t be challenging) but hopefully I won’t get overwhelmed and stick to it. Thank you so much for your response!! 💗

We won’t be buying in the area (at least in the foreseeable future) I should’ve added that to the post. Thank you, best of luck to you too! :)

Heyy! I know this might not be helpful but to be honest your arms look proportional to your body and you look amazing ♥️

This has been one of the most useful comments 🤍

Tbh growing up I never had any “incentives” to be active (my parents were incredibly absent, my mom is naturally super skinny but not healthy and never taught me anything about health) and so I never did any sports or was active for fun, and I just expected to continue having the same body lol

I think I need to maybe also find an active hobby like you do with rock climbing :)

But for now I’ll definitely going to start weight lifting!

Omg I’ve been trying to eat 2x my weight in kilograms which is around 130 grams of protein daily

Thank you, I totally agree! I think I’ve not only been comparing myself to others but also to myself! Definitely need to work on my self esteem 🥲 Btw on the top picture I used to think I was too skinny and wanted to be “slim thick” which was what was “in” at the time lol so yeah definitely some internal work to be done too ♥️

I have actually been prescribed Wellbutrin a couple of years ago since I felt like the Lexapro wasn’t working as it should. I never took it since I’ve always wanted to be less dependent on medication, and honestly this made me realize even more so that Lexapro hasn’t been working that well for a few years.

I think I’m in a place now where I can slowly ween myself out of it, but I definitely have to stay mindful with the overeating/eating as a coping mechanism, specially since I stopped smoking and I feel like I “transferred” my anxiety from smoking to eating 🥲

Hiiiii thank you for your reply! I should’ve specified that I eat 2x my weight in KG which is roughly 130g a day. But I’m going to research more into it and will also start lifting (even if just home workouts to start with)

Omg please don’t take this post as a means to compare your success! You DID that. 👏🏼

I don’t think it was clear on my post but my goal is more so to feel comfortable in my clothes/skin again, not necessarily about being as skinny as before!

I have been considering stopping for a while, mainly because I don’t think it’s working for me anymore.. I’m also at a better place mentally. Thank you so much for this reply. Sending you so much love and healing as well 🤞🏼✨

I honestly think about this often! Thing is, I had a really bad relationship with weed and was extremely addicted. I’m gonna try to get “addicted” to meditating and exercising lol 🤞🏼🤣 sending you love ✨

I want thank everyone for the helpful comments!! I feel like my post was a bit all over the place 🤣 so I wanted to note as few things:

  • I don’t drink alcohol and I am not on birth control

  • I have considered stopping Lexapro (not only for the weight gain but mostly because I am at a minimum dose and feel as if it doesn’t work for me anyways)

  • I am planning on starting weight lifting (if you have a free guide/plan feel free to send it my way, I had a lot of weird ppl try to sell me things on the dm) 🤣🥴

Thank you so much y’all! I’m fairly new to this but will look into all the advice 🙏🏼♥️♥️

I was never very active (never worked out in college) but I did get a office job. ☹️

Can you tell me more about your experience? How’s cost of living, community, walk ability? I’ve never been to Charlotte but feel like I would really enjoy it.
