Questions for beginner

[mamajunebug]

Hello. I am 24 years old weighing in at 131 lbs and I am 5'5. I gave birth to my first child last year then just recently gave birth to my second child this year. I used to have a slim stomach before my children and weighed 115 lbs. I am looking to lose belly fat then gain lean muscle. I need a plan when I enter the gym,but right now I am lost. I eat very healthy everyday keeping my calories under 1,800. I am not very experienced in this field and any advice would be appreciated! Attached below are pictures of my current physique . Thank you

How recently did you have your last child? The belly fat will melt off of you are nursing. I would hit the weights hard. Don’t worry about losing the belly fat and then building lean muscle. Build the muscle first. Calories look ok. Maybe even increase them.
