Hey there, I’ve got 40ish pounds I’d like to lose but more importantly I wanna reverse my pre diabetes and get off BP meds too. I do have PCOS and I’m also short, so weight loss can be extra challenging.

I’ve got a 5 year old who keeps me on my toes, so would be welcome to meet another parent :) Would love to have daily check-ins, open to what platform.

Looking for some help! Last year I made an amazing low carb waffle -and not a chaffle- that was perfectly crispy on the outside and very light and delicate on the inside, and definitely had vital wheat gluten. But I can’t remember where I got the recipe from! Could have been this subreddit, a blog, or a library book.

I’ve been doing some searching but haven’t found one that looks familiar. The only other details I remember is that there was no whipping the egg whites (it was all stir-together), and there were no protein powders or specialty flours beyond the vwg, almond, and maybe coconut flours, since a year ago I know I didn’t have those.

Ring a bell for anyone?? 🤞

Hi all, I recently left the kettlebell gym I had been attending since last March due to a variety of reasons. I really liked it, but for the time being I’m at a regular gym. I was doing OH presses typically with 30-35 lb, squats 50-70 lb, rows 35 lb, and recently got to 1RM DL of 200 lb (but could more comfortably do about 8 reps at 125).

So, all this to say I’m early in my lifting journey but not an absolute beginner. The gym I’m at now doesn’t have such a wide range of kettlebells, so I will probably switch to normal free weights.

Which kinds of programs do y’all recommend to further my progress? Also, yes I am trying to lose weight but I do love lifting and along with climbing (and out

I don’t have many people to tell, so I thought I’d share here: I deadlifted a 200 pound kettlebell today! Which was a big jump up from my previous best of 150. Feeling strong! 💪
