Hey Y'all!

[Jen10]

I'm new to the site and wanted to say hi and introduce myself.

My name is Jen. Im 25, 143 lbs.(most days) 5'6.5", BMI 22, Body fat 18% i have played softball competitively for 15 years until I had to have 3 major shoulder surgeries. needless to stay I feel like I'm in the best shape I've been in awhile but have reached a plateau and kinda of need a push. I can fluxuate weight by 10 lbs in a week no problem when I have an emotional issue. Mainly caused by not seeing my very overworked boyfriend. Im an admitted sugaraholoic! when I'm good I eat 6-7 times and workout for a few hours before work m-f. and usually sat morning as well. I do only about 20 min of cardio a few times a week. I apparently lose muscle extremely quick. My diet consists mostly of turkey burgers, chicken w/ 1 cup mixed veggies, roasted sweet potatoes. apples, almonds, 24g protein shakes post workout and before bed. I dont seem to vary my workout too much but, i have started looking through the site and saw some great suggestions yall have given other ppl that i cant wait to try.

Welcome Jen,

Emotional issues are tough...especially for us ladies. Some quick advice. Make sure to "control" your cheating. If you have to eat ice cream don't eat the whole gallon. Also, find somebody to workout with. Having someone to keep you accountable and motivated really helps when those emotional swings kick in. (You could also lose the boyfriend...JK)

Thx Rebecca...keep trying to get rid of the bf, cant seem to do it. He just took on 11 more clients so I literally never see him.....Yeah when I cheat I CHEAT! Ate the whole thing of ice cream on tuesday! but doing better today other than feeling like I want to eat my arm off Im so hungry! I'll look into a training partner. I have never had one. Definitely seems like that would help me right now.

Good work out tho jen!
