[quote=Anonymous]44F, 5’4” -  was always a casual gym-goer and runner - just did different programs over time with no real goals and ate somewhat healthy, but somewhat of a yo-yo dieter.

Had a real rough time during the pandemic, not just pandemic related, but work and home life issues.  Lost all motivation, was drinking way too much and eating way too much crap (think crackers/wine/cheese for dinner on the regular, lots of pizza, Ubereats, etc.)

By Xmas/New Year’s last year, almost had a mental breakdown.

Since then, I decided to join a gym and splurge on a personal trainer.

Happy to report I’ve lost a total of 12.5 pounds of FAT (per the Inbody machine at the gym), 10.5 pounds of weight, and gained approx 2 pounds of muscle since the new year!

The loss has been slow and steady and not too difficult to maintain.  Still have about 30 pounds to go, but what I’ve been doing has been fairly easy to maintain.

No breakfast except for whey protein if I’m training that day. 
Weight train with trainer 3x/week. 
Cardio 2-3x/week.  (One longer session, two shorter 20-30 minute sessions). 
Approx. 1500 calories/day.  
Minimum 100g protein/day. 
Eat out 1-2x/week - generally choosing a protein/veg, maybe bread if I restricted calories early that day. 
Not a big snacker or dessert eater, but once in a while I’ll have a 80 calorie dessert if I’m craving something and it fits within my calories.  
Still drinking wine regularly (need to work on cutting this out).
