so i gained 500g, i think and hope that's muscle
- i lost 2cm in thighs and waist, others remained unchanged
- do i see any physical changes, no. do i feel stronger, better, motivated, yes!
- sometimes i would drink soda and eat sweets and also some days i don't think i did my protein daily intake. also i didn't jump rope everyday because i don't want to risk an injury
- so yeah, a bit disappointed because i expected some extreme physical changes but that takes time.
- i will keep you updated ✌🏼
- update: i've got a huge pain below my knees and they've got a bit swollen, i will take 1 week break and definitely won't jump rope anymore

i just stoped eating junk im eating protein doing weights, my belly is gone frm resistant training yess! No ab workouts and full body movements.

[leinapea]

this is so helpful, it explains a lot since I was binging and fasting way too much but couldn’t loose random fat around my waist/stomach. I would’ve never thought it was due to not having much muscle. thank you!

[frostdice]

Kind of late here but thank you so much for this, i have been skinny fat and its been a month i have been going to the gym however i gained some muscle, not much and i got worried so ofc a few days ago i started protein shakes and creatine. But i was still worried until i came across this, the reason why i am seeing muscle change but not fat change is because i am also doing to much cardio. I go above 30 minutes everyday and its intense. But thanks to you i figured out the problem, i will continue my weight training as it is but only do cardio 3 times a week upto 20 minutes. I can’t thank you enough for this. Hope you have a very nice day !

Very helpful! I am 55 with a BMI of 20. I weigh the same as I did in junior high (108). I wear the same size jeans (size 24) but something WEIRD has happened to my body and I thought the jiggle was menopause. During covid i started working out at home and focused mostly on my pilates reformer and power yoga. I got SKINNY FAT! I hopped on a smart scale the other day and was shocked to see it put my BMI at 20 and my body at 28%! I am also a vegetarian and have NEVER eaten much protein. I tracked it for a few days and I have lived on carbs like veggies, , fruits and beans most of my live. I am now eating much more protein and while I dislike eating dairy I now do. I still can't bring myself to eat meat. I used to have such a toned, petite body. I am sort of relieved to know this is fixable and not just lack of collagen which is what I was blaming it on. I've upped the protein significantly and am know doing some serious weight training. Fingers crossed. One thing I have noticed is that by eating more protein and less carbs I lose weight very easily. I do not want to get thinner as it makes my face look older and I have osteopenia. Thank you for this video. It gave me clarity on my issue.

I'm 51 & thin, but gained a menopause belly 2 years ago. I recently lost a lot of weight due to the death of my husband. I have gained the weight back & am at what was my perfect weight. The problem is I lost a lot of muscle too, so I look skinny with a pooch belly. I could gain more weight to look better, but it will enlarge my belly more. Am considering "freezing the fat" off my belly even though it's expensive. The combo of menopause & grief have really changed my body. Have always exercised and had muscle - now I have to start over with a strange new body 😱

I can tell she knows what she’s talking about!

[bea]

i do pilates and drive my bike for 30 min everyday and no junk food i guess it will help

I finally came to realize that this is what is happening to me. Trying many different fat loss strategies but not working over the past 6 months. Now I’ll try this instead thank you

[anon]

[MariaBenjamin-umzk]

I used to be skinny fat and it's really not that difficult to fix... You just need to learn how rearrange your plate

[daisyh]

Getting enough sleep and drinking water is also important for this body type.

[dancooper]

Great video! This was very informative and helpful.

[verydenise]

Great video!! I’ve seen a lot of this to be true in my progress so far.

[XxX-viif]

I lowered my calorie intake and have unfortunately lost muscle mass. My chest is visibly different and I have loose fat, and its embarrassing. I've been searching for more fixes to this. I will take this into consideration.

[SimranSingh-pswd]
