Hey!
I am a new member to the forum, and posted a new thread in the Women's Bodybuilding forum, then read the post regarding new members. I'm sorry about that.
Stats:
Gender: female
Weight: 107 lbs.
Height: 5' 2"
Body Fat: unknown
My goals are to gain muscle without gaining fat and upping my body fat percentage. I also have a goal to quit smoking.
No date in mind for first goal, I just want to get to the "build" that suits ME. Second goal I would like to accomplish by December 31, 2015.
Prior to March 4th of this year, I strength trained with free weights and body weight; and did cardio 5 to 6 days per week: on different days. Since that date, I have not "officially" worked out. I had, what I experienced as a "journey" for five weeks out of state, and returned to my home state April 7th of this year. I have not worked out at all since April 7th. (Due to fear of losing more weight)
My meal plan is pretty simple. I eat clean 95% of the time. I eat breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Sometimes if I am hungry, I will have an mid-morning or mid-afternoon snack; like a piece of fruit or leftover chicken breast. I control my portions by using one black salad plate that I have. It's just the right size for me to "think" I'm eating a lot when my plate is full; when in actuality, I am not.
Medical concerns....I am consulting with a surgeon to discuss the removal of my gallbladder. It has many gallstones and has been causing me health issues.
Good to meet all of you!
