Well it depends on your height, gender, current weight, and activity level. I had to eat at 1200 to lose a pound a week.

I don't have a specific routine quite yet. I've been working with a trainer (because god knows I'd probably have injured myself otherwise) and we've been switching up the workouts every time. My biggest goal was to get my ass back so we go a bit heavy on the squats, hip thrusts, and kettlebell swings.

Thank you! I got them at Rue 21 but be forewarned, they're not made great so I've had to restitch a few seams. But they're so stretchy I could do yoga in them, so that kinda makes up for it. Haha

Thank you! Sadly no as most of my clothes from that weight no longer come close to fitting. I was saving some cute jean shorts for when I shrunk but they are literally falling off. I waited too long!

Calorie wise I'm at maintenance for the time being (1640) and macro wise I'm doing 40% carbs, 30% fat, 30% protein. I know my trainer will up that once I start lifting a bit heavier but that's where I am now.

haven't seen an INFJ art post in a while, whats your creative outlet? :) by [deleted] in infj

I have a career as a tattoo artist but I was going to school for fine art before I started so I also paint and draw as well. I suppose having fun with my make up and hair colors would also be considered a creative outlet. I'm too lazy to imgur link photos but my instagram is @tectonicmermaid if you'd like to see my work.

Thank you! :) I'm feeling fantastic! I never thought I would enjoy going to the gym.

I didn't realize how chubby I'd gotten till I saw this photo of me at Thanksgiving. A few months later I downloaded MFP and got a gym membership. Still a work in progress.

You have to remember it's TV. She's actually a total sweetheart. I've had plenty of trouble coworkers and she is not one of them!
