Hi Jacob - So I’m calculating a deficit and wanted your thoughts. My health data says my resting energy is 1,350 cals and I burn on average an additional 500 calories a day. So if I’m taking 1,850 down to 1,600, that doesn’t feel like enough. 🤷‍♀️ although I guess that’s 1/2 a lb a week.

Hi everyone. My name is Lonna. I’m 53 years old and have lived an active lifestyle for most of my life. I enjoy CrossFit and being outdoors, though living in Texas in the summer can certainly hinder the outdoor activities. 😂 My “why”’ is that I’m frustrated that some of my favorite clothes don’t fit. I gained 10 pounds about a year or so ago, and in my mind I hadn’t changed anything drastically. I workout regularly and walk a lot. I eat fairly well. I don’t struggle with energy. I’ve had a few small injuries that I’ve had to deal with over the last year, and I’ve had people tell me the weight gain and injuries are just “age” and a part of life. My “why”’ is that I’m not ready to accept that!
