A year of muscle building and recovering from an eating disorder. I've gained almost 15lbs, but I'm no longer too scrawny!

You're asking us essentially to tell you how to lose almost 1lb a day.

Here's how:
Eat/Drink nothing but water for the next ten days.

Do I recommend it? Absolutely not.



If you want to...

How long have you been trying to cut down? Excuse my lack of definite knowledge in this, but perhaps you could take a week to deload and take a diet break.

Yes, we'd have to know everything your eating/drinking in order to help you out here. Also, you could probably cut on a higher amount of calories. ;)

I mix flaxseed meal into my oatmeal for a bit of a fiber and fat boost. Makes it a bit goupy, but I love it!!!

Mine is Breville, too, and I love it!

I do all of those. x) They're blocked into the main muscle group, I suppose.

Sure! It's essentially Jamie Eason's recipe on here, except I weigh everything out and add a bit less Stevia in the Raw... so you can add more if you want it more sweet. I like it with less since I...

I don't mind the split... I just think that 9 exercises is a lot for one day. Yeah, I'm a beginner :x

Single Arm Dumbell Curls - 4x12 - 15
Cable Hammer Curls w/ Rope - 4x 8 - 12
*Any Curl Machine* super set w/ Concentrated Barbell Curls - 4x 8-12
Close Grip Bench - 4x 8 - 12

You guys are making me crave some right now! Had some almond butter this morning with my pumpkin protein bread :D

I also really like Naturally More, PB, but I really don't like that they took out...

Thanks, guys. I'm guessing I'll need to lose somewhere in the ballpark of 10lbs, perhaps? I guess I'll see when I start to lean out... I'll definitely keep a detailed log.

MAYBE I'll post it here,...

I hate to start *another* thread about competing, but this time I'd like to know how long do you think it'll take (if I theoretically lose 0.5-1lb/week consistently) to cut down to bikini level...

DiannaPrince and Gia85, I hope it gets easier for you to eat just a spoonful or two! x_x

I've never seen macadamia butter in my city. Sounds amazing though. I've also never seen cashew butter...

Hmmm... well I'm no expert... but what does your intake look like now (macronutrient breakdown)? Is it in a deficit? Maintenance? Surplus? Have you been training 4-5 months straight? Are you sleeping...

Sorry, I just had to start this thread. A while ago, I wasn't disciplined enough to be trusted with a jar of nut butter in my house, but now I can have several jars in stock and enjoy them in...

Yes, she shouldn't have to do cardio if she is in a proper deficit. :) She can if she wants to, but there's no need to do it nearly every day~ If she wants some soda or cookies, try to have her fit...

Read the first line of your signature lol Trial and error. Now you know and can continue tweaking! :)

That sounds like a loooooot of cardio to me! Just have her keep lifting while eating at a deficit.

Forget what the scale says and focus on the mirror. Weight doesn't matter nearly as much as being comfortable with the way you look... except at 5'7" you're already "underweight". Eat more, do less...
