Thread: Helping my girl lose weight

There is nothing like fasted cardio and a clean diet to lose weight unless your girl has thyroid issues. Did she have blood work done lately?

Does she have any other goals other than losing weight? What is her height, age, weight ect as of now. Also I would take note that lowering the calories isn't always the answer and can cause more damage than good in certain situations. Has she tried hiit before?

This is gonna be your best advice here to try... reverse the calorie intake for a week or two then drop em back down
also sounds like the work load is a little extreme(thats too much cardio and weight resistance for stats imho). whats her .N.E.A.T look like? Sometimes just increasing your day to day activities can help conditioning... not so much excercising but stuff like yard work, cleaning house, working on your feet(laborious job), taking the stairs instead of elevators, parking further away from store and walking more ext ect exetera

This is a good point... hormones will fuck a woman's physique goals up way more than a man's... get bloodwork if u havent already!

Well look into this because all the weight did come on during the pregnancy and that first 25lbs was rough

I agree with above too. I would never go below 500 cal maintenance with your food intake. But like i already said she needs to reverse diwt to maintenance. Do you even know her maintenance? Losing weight and keeping it off is a slow process. Your girl probably is aneaking food because @ 1000 calories doing all that she would be tired, bitchy and snappy lol. I remember when i was too low on my calories my whole family suffered. Then when you are so hungry most cannot control a binge. Once she is at maintenance I recommend starting slow. If she enjoys running, i would even start at only 100 calorie deficit on the food intake part. Then wait until a stall to take away more. If you are getting results theres no need to up cardio or lower calories for no reason. I know i lose weight on more calories compared to being too low. Anyways add some pics those always help.

dunno the science for it... But a little personal story...
i was married years ago to this tiny little cuban chick i met in high school, just for a reference she was about 5'3" 105lbs tops! She was always in really fuckin good shape from playing softball her whole childhood! I mean fuckin tight buddy! well, we also had two daughters and she dropped the weight but never really got that tight conditioning back... i dunno if it has to do with stretched skin from pregnancy or hormone changes... but, shit really changed for her after the second child , physique and hormonal wise.... it seems so much harder for women to attain that tight physique after child birth... not sayin its not possible but im bettin you have to really pull deep and stay increadibly strict if u want it bad enough!
