Your stats show you at 5'6" and 132 pounds. Is that current? If so, that means you want to get down to 112? That would be underweight for your height.

I second the recommendation for more protein. It can really help strengthen thin, damaged hair. Also, can you try a low ponytail? Like at the nape of your neck? That takes the weight off your...

I also could not lose that last 10 pounds while nursing. 1 for over a year and 1 for over two years. I just got to a certain point where any more fat loss compromised supply so I just accepted it. ...

Could be anything from needing more fats in your diet or a joint supplement to a major systemic condition such as Lupus or arthritis. Not trying to diagnose you or scare you, but just want to make...

Just wanted to add my two cents on the chromium picolinate. For me, I never found it to do much in blunting carb cravings. However, I did fine that taking 5-HTP had a major impact on cravings and...

Then you're not eating enough to gain muscle. And the excess cardio is not helping. Keep raising your cals until you're gaining and back off on the cardio.

You say you have a weekly cheat meal. What does that usually consist of and are you tracking it? Depending on how many cals in the cheat you could be wiping out a big portion of your weekly deficit...

This could be a big part of your problem right here. Switch to using your food scale to measure everything accept liquids that list their serving sizes in fluid
ounces. You'd be really surprised at...

OP - Are you doing any "cheat" meals or days? Any restaurant meals or parties where you've had to guess at the cals or just didn't track for that meal/day? Any of that could cut into your deficit...

I use an app called Lose it. Does exactly what you're looking for.

Black coffee and a protein bar for me.

I think your post says it all. You have very specific goals. Your trainer is not helping you to meet those goals. No sense in continuing to pay for something you're not getting.

Lyle McDonald has a good set of articles on this subject. First one is here: http://www.bodyrecomposition.com/training/weight-training-for-fat-loss-part-1.html Part 2 is linked at the end. His...

You don't say anything about your calories. Eating below maintenance is what leads to fat loss. What is your maintenance calorie level, how many cals have you been eating and are you weighing,...

Not true. You need to be lifting weights now to preserve the muscle that you already have while losing fat.

I use an app called LoseIt.

I wish that were true. But a quick google search shows that about 18% of adolescents are obese. At least in the US. That's obese and doesn't even include the additional number that "just" count as...

Hi! You say your goal is to bulk but your cals are only 1400 per day? That'll be too low for you. In the nutrition sub forum is a sticky on how to calc correct cals for your goals. Start there to...

No issue with chest flies here either as far as implants shifting. But they do feel a bit "odd" with unders. And since your doc definitely told you to avoid that specific move I get where you're...

Let's start with the above. What aren't you measuring? Sometimes the things we guess at or decide not to track can make all the difference, so that could be an issue right there.

Also, I've seen...
