Hi all! Could use some help. I’ve been working out consistently (mostly elliptical and lifting weights) and I’ve been eating well but my weight is not dropping. I know I’m building muscle but I’d also like to drop a lot of lbs too. For context, I weigh 205 lbs but I don’t “look it” (idk what this means but that’s what everyone tells me) as I am curvier and have large hips. Are there specific workouts I should be focusing on to drop the lbs? I’m tired. 😭
