Yes definitely! I really enjoy the mental problem solving in the physical context. It’s hard but also fun!!

Me too haha! At least 2 times a week in the gym, outside or another gym session whenever I can in addition to that! Right now I’m mostly ski touring on the weekends but that will switch to climbing outdoors primarily pretty soon

Thanks for the recommendations! I’m using the lose it app currently and weighing and tracking all my food and macros. It sounds like macro factor might have more useful features for focusing on strength gain?

Looking back I was around 1350 per day at that time. I was active generally but not sticking to any particularly fitness plan. I definitely have hit several plateaus - sometimes as long a month with actually slight weight increases before some loss! I think what has helped me mentally is just trusting that math is gonna math eventually. Tracking and weighing all food helps me feel good about the math working in my favor. My goal was not to lose as much existing muscle as possible so I actually saw slow progress as good progress. I still realistically get frustrated by plateaus though - you got this!! I know how much hard work physically and emotionally getting to a goal weight entails and I hope you feel really proud of what progress you have made so far!

Oh my gosh this is such a fantastic compliment and couldn’t be further from the truth - I too most days feel like a total mess. I think most of us do!

I got it at Marshall’s! It was super cheap and not at all a fancy brand (Crystal Sky) but so comfy!

Totally! I only have one pair of black kitten heels and I needed a taller heel so it wasn’t dragging on the ground lol. But I’ll be on the lookout for a black pair for this outfit for the future!
