That's when I work out 10pm


I'm really confused about food doe .

I take my shake and maybe a pineapple or banana but I feel like my body wants more .

I have no clue what to do should I switch up my meal plan and eat a whole meal after my work out ?

Since you workout so late, I think a whole meal may be excessive (especially if you have been eating all day).

For me, I usually drink half of my daily green smoothie (which has protein in it). If you DO plan to eat after your workout then you need to eat lighter during the day. This is all based on whether you are trying to lose weight, which I am.

This is extra late, but working out can actually help relieve cramps.

Yea @SouthernBelle is right i worked out on my first day

I wasn't going to i actually sat in the parking lot of like an hour on the phone but i was like I'm here fukk it let me work out.

It wasn't bad at all my cramps went away and i had a good work out .

Sore as fukk. I think I hurt something in my upper back today.
Also, I hate that I'm such a picky eater. Turkey breast sucks and the b*stard didn't do it thinly sliced so i can taste it

Holy shyt my lower back is destroyed. I woke up sore and decided to exercise at home instead of going to the gym. Now Im laid out on the floor like can barely move. I'm staying right here

EDIT: Was able to power through and do some yoga

My abs are so fukking sore

But after a little over a month of doing various chest workouts, I can say my boobs are looking slightly perkier

One question (I'm new to this thread so sorry if it's been answered) But how do you get the motivation to lose weight and stay consistent with it? like, i'd have no problem working out. but my problem lies in what I eat more than anything. any advice?

My motivation comes from misery tbh. When I gain weight I don't feel like myself. My attitude completely changes. I don't get dressed up anymore, I don't go out. I don't like wasting my life away so I do what I know will fix what makes me miserable, which is lose weight and keep it off so I don't have to keep starting from the beginning every time.

When it comes to the eating healthy, start off slow. Don't take on a whole bunch of diets and make lots of drastic changes all at once. You'll be overwhelmed and be more inclined to drop everything.

Make minor changes. Add a lot of healthy veggies and fruits to your normal, everyday diet. You'll start realizing you get full much quicker when you start adding them, making it easier to cut out some of the unhealthier foods. Switch from dairy milk to almond milk. A candy bar/pint of ice cream a week instead of binging on em. From corn to olive oil. Try baking things instead of frying them. Switch bottled salad dressing for your own homemade vinaigrette. Small things like that. Then, when you manage that and it feels easy, make bigger changes. Brown rice instead of white. Cutting out fast food altogether. Taking smaller steps instead of big steps will insure success because you're not forcing yourself to get used to too much at once. Good luck!
