Hi :)

I was wondering if anyone could recommend a nutrition coach?

Thank you

One year bulk - sounds like heaven!!

Finally got my 'gym' sorted out, so I will be able to lift some real weight tomorrow!! Yay!!

In the effort to get it back together, I took some progress pics. Nothing like a progress pic for...

Thank you :)

I'll try not too - I'm way more accountable when I log on here!!

So last week I tracked my macros to see where I'm at:...

Update

So I'm evidently REALLY bad at keeping a journal.

My training has still been on the back burner lately. Quit the gym because £$£$, but managed to save up enough from quitting the gym to...

Hi :)

I'd definitely take the week off! In that grand scheme of things a week of means nothing - the fact that you are running so much, I definitely would! Chance of over exhaustion etc isn't...

Agree with all of the above - notice definite improvement!!!

I so feel everybody's sentiments regarding bulk hunger - the psychology of being able to eat more, subsequently making you want to eat even more, is cruel!!

I'm the same as you with my back,...

So good to see you back here!! Looking great too btw!

Hii :)

That's great to get some advice from the powerlifter. My gym is the same - no box - so when I've done them in the past, I've used a bench like you. Seemed to go okay from what I can...

Hii :)

I'm so bad at keeping a journal ha!

Yeah, 1800 calories is mean! I ended up averaging 2026 cals (~132p/152c/98f) and actually dropped 1.2 lbs (obviously some water weight) and my waist...

I'd say get some sort off professional help asap. In my personal experience, the longer you leave a mental health issue to itself, the worse it gets.

For anxiety, exposure therapy is really one...

HI :D

Thank you ms_mac!

Thanks ms_mac :) It's good to be back - feels so weird taking time out!

I think you are right to just keep going. I think of lifting as a form of therapy anyway, no matter how I feel before a...

So I've decided to start a new journal.

Basically getting back into lifting again after a few months off.

Going to start with an old favourite programme - baby got back. Not going to do any...

I'm so sorry to hear all you have gone through! Never feel embarrassed about seeing a therapist; I'm pretty sure more people than we think see them!

Great to hear you are still training, and look...

As someone who has taken a few months of lifting, a little soft but relatively lean and lost considerable size, would a recomp be feasible? My strength has dropped quite a bit too.

Thanks for any...

I took a 3 month hiatus from lifting after what I'm pretty certain was a mixture of general stress and overtraining stress leaving me hormonally out of whack (amenorrhea, holding onto fat etc).
