I havent lost much in a while, and I am also trying to gain muscle so it is not that big of an issue, but I have to constantly remind myself not to focus on the weight too much.
I want to create something sustainable but because of the quarantine, I barely move aside of my excersise, so my calories have to be pretty low still. I am so looking forward to normal life again.
One positive thing is I havent had any processed food since New Years and I can see benefits of that.
My muscle went up a bit, still struggling with the protein, but I am trying and I hope in the long run, it will all work out :)

I'm with you. I been trying to up my protein, but not consume to many calories, because I'm trying to build bigger muscles, but still need to lose 8 pounds, but if I can convert the last bit to muscle that'll be good. It is hard trying to get enough protein in. I was shooting for 30 percent and that's a struggle, but now I'm trying to do 40 percentage each day

Sophie—- Get outside and walk. Moving is important, not just to help with weight issues, bu we need the vit. D, we need to see the sunshine, or the snow glistening under a street lamp. Surviving Covid is not only about staying alive but having your mental health intact when we do get this thing under control. So many here are suffering mentally and emotionally— extreme fear, isolation, anxiety, weight gain, and dangerous depression. Take whatever steps you can to teach your brain that the world is still out there and we will get back to a semblance of what we had, but not for a while.

I am just generally trying at least 60g, but my ususal diet used to be mostly carb based and I am trying to re-learn. 😅
I cannot believe how muh meat I would have to eat for that, on my past diet, I felt like I was eating a lot and based on this app, I used to get only 20g/day and my new smart scale also picked up on that.
I have protein shakes after excercise now, but I still barely make the 60g if I really try. 😅😂

Make sure you don't drink more than 2 protein shakes a day, because the more you drink, it'll give you diarrhea and it's bad for the kidneys. They say to mainly get your protein from food. I been researching this, because I'm really struggling with the protein thing to. The body builders eat 6-7 times a day to get their protein in, but they're also not trying to lose weight like us.

Thank you for the tip! I didnt know. I now only drink one a day, because the 40g I can get from diet of I try so it gives me the extra 20. :) I will keep it in mind not to drink more or combine with other suplements. :)

We are same path but I haven't done quite as well with no processed. I do really good for about 2 weeks, then I crash. I workout 6 days a week.
We are on a mini vacation right now but luckily there is a small gym where we are staying and we go mountain biking so I'm able to keep up on fitness.
Good luck with your journey, sounds like you got this!
