Thank you! Most of my prenatal appointments have been cancelled due to COVID so I’m guessing a bit on final weight now

F, 116 -> 124, after many years of trying, excited to gain weight finally!

I started at 167 last summer! I plateaued at 160 in the early fall and committed to working out 5 days a week starting in January (already worked out before that, but not as much). Once quarantine happened, eating all homemade meals really helped (have ordered zero takeout in ~6 weeks), in addition to 4-5 days/week of CorePower yoga.
More power to ya _ try to get that muscle back by doing BW exercises. 💪 You may not have weights, but you still have your body!

Biggest thing for me was just the lack of drinking tbh. Every time I got out with the boys it’s a solid 3k calorie night with all the beers and drunk food. Now I’m just enjoying a beer or two a weekend with the girlfriend

It’s 2lbs a week since I’ve been home. I diligently drink half my body weight in water a day. No alcohol no bread but still other carbs. I don’t eat anything after 8pm when I drink an AVC water and lemon mixture before bed by 10 at the latest. I’ll eat in the morning not doing intermittent fasting. I’ve added a lot of veggies to my meals for example I used to have 2 eggs and toast in the am not I have 2 eggs with chopped up peppers and asparagus and I feel way more full longer. I workout everyday except Sunday mix of running, peloton, HIIT workouts. All 350 calories - 500 calories burned. I’ve been adding a lot of veggies to my meals. Also and probably most important I don’t buy any junk food or desserts. If I want them I go to the store but usually it’s not worth the effort and I just let it go.

200 -> 188. Some of it was bloating and being social , but now I have time to actually cook at home and count macros while working out at home. Looking to get from 16-18% bf to around 10-12% before a slow bulk since summertime Ho season seems to be cancelled this year 😂

F, 112 > 105 (not unhealthy, just short! 😅) Back to college weight after trying but plateauing for MANY years.

I think the biggest change came from not traveling: Less booze 🥃 , way more time to work out 💪 , and no more indulgent expensed meals 🥩
