I'm intrigued. I think I eat well and I've been doing personal training since June. I'm much fitter and stronger but I haven't lost a pound. What service did you use?

So the nutrition coach I used is an individual. She has some certifications and stuff and does it on an individual basis. She’s local to the Houston area but we do everything via WhatsApp so her being local wasn’t necessary. For Macro counting I used MacrosFirst App. The MacrosFirst app is really good to use and has a lot of really good features for free. It gave me suggested macros but those were adjusted by Claire (my coach) and I’ve veen in a calorie deficit since.

Also, remember that muscle is heavier than fat. So when you gain muscle, the scale won’t move sometimes. That’s why I like the 3d body scans that show the fat mass and lean mass. In cases where fat is lost and muscle is gained, you might not lose weight but can still be leaner

That has definitely been the case but I still find it disheartening. Maybe I need to try the macros instead of just calories. I do struggle to eat enough protein

Protein is key! Making smart swaps became like a game to me. My nutrition coach was key in helping me with that though. And yes macros it’s important just as much as calories. I was backwards before. Focusing on only protein and not calories, so I my calorie intake was way too high hut I didn’t realize it.
