Vri Posted September 30, 2016 Report Share Posted September 30, 2016 But I need help. I honestly usually tend to be an introvert in the internet world and I'm not really experienced at forum and chatting in general. So, this is a huge step for me. Huge scary step. I feel like everyone is watching. But yea, as a person I'm very very proud and I don't like for others to know that I'm weak or that I didn't succeed in something. I like for people to think that everything comes naturally to me and that everything I do is a success so I hate for people to know that I fail. Anyways, lately, after having two babies, my body has gone to shit and I haven't been happy. My libido is suffering too as I don't feel sexy anymore... and no mater what I have done to lose weight I end up gaining 10lbs more. It's frustrating. And it's a severe ego blow. Nonetheless, I seem like I can't do it on my own and I need guidance. I'm very confused and lost. Right now my measurements are as follows: Bust 43 in, Waist 33 in, Hips 45 in. I'm 5'0" and I weight 178 lbs. My bmi says I'm obese. I have no idea what my fat percentage is and i just finished ordering a skin fold caliper. My goal is to get back to measurements and weight I was when my husband first met me, which was like 5 years ago. Bust 34 in, Waist 24 in, Hips 34in and 130 lbs. Quote Link to comment
Nedwin Posted September 30, 2016 Report Share Posted September 30, 2016 Welcome! Please feel at home here. Put your feet up on the table. Nobody is judging you. It helps to create a specific goal with a timeframe. Steve has multiple articles with tips for staying on track. The website doesn't work as well for me while I'm at work, or I'd pass along some links. I'll try to grab some when I get home! Poke around in some of the other threads that pertain to your goals to get a good idea of workouts and meals. 1 Quote Level 2 Furyan Ranger You keep what you kill STR 3 | DEX 2 | STA 3 | CON 2 | WIS 2 | CHA 36.1 | 6.2 | Duolingo | Daily | Fitocracy Spoiler Captain Hammer: Have I seen you at the gym?

MissoulaSquatch Posted October 1, 2016 Report Share Posted October 1, 2016 Do yourself a really big favor: Don't use BMI to measure your health and value in this world. It's great for measuring trends in entire populations, horrible for determining health in the individual. That said, welcome! This is a fantastic place, this community is literally the most supportive and life changing group I have ever met. You're gonna love it here! 1 Quote How to become Sasquatch Link to comment
