[quote=Anonymous]How do you know that 1700-1900 is an adequate amount of calories for you? How many grams of protein are you consuming daily? Put your height, weight, and activity level into an online BMR (Basal Metabolic Rate) calculator, and calculate your daily calories based on that. You may actually not be consuming enough protein and calories to heal, repair, and grow your muscles from intense weightlifting, which can cause swelling and inflammation of the overworked muscles and a lack of lifting progression. The bloat could also be hormonal. I'd get labs run by an endocrinologist to rule anything out. [/quote]
