Anna's Training Log Part 2 (Part 1)

You are deceiving yourself HARD with that statement and you try to create a scenario in your head where this isn’t your fault.
Sorry. @T3hPwnisher hit the nail on the head. You are not honest to yourself and it’s possible you simply can’t be if you don’t receive outside help. Or at least it will take much longer and do a lot more damage

It adapts to it sure but point me to something that proves that it’s just as easy to become stronk while in effect walking an entire mountain trail in a day every day 365 days per week.

Just noticed I meant to write per year but I’ll rather let it read like I first wrote it tbh :woman_shrugging:

If that’s true, it’s because your body is shutting down and doesn’t want you to die.

TLDR… I’ll eat more and move less…

Meaning what exactly? How many steps did you walk on average the last 7 days?

I used to do “easy workouts” on non lifting days on top of the steps

I can still sense that you are trying to get away with a lot of activity that you are doing that no one but yourself seems to support. And that don’t support your recovery.

Sure you’ll adapt to it, so that it doesn’t cost as much metabolically, but there’s still a cost even if it’s low and you presumably do it for hours everyday. And, I have a hard time imagining that while you are walking your leg muscles are managing to accrue extra muscle tissue and even if it’s possible: resting would without a doubt allow more tissue to be accrued.

I don’t remember your height, maybe 5’0"? So, seems like you need 2.1k to just maintain:

Nope. The TLDR is actually to get therapy.
Move less and eat more was the TLDR for way too long

Yup, probably exactly zero people who aren’t actively traversing the Appalachian Trail or the North Pole move as much. One of my siblings runs a dog day-care center. She walks for a living. Similar step count, way more food, less additional activity.

Pretty much this.

Move less and eat more is what you need to do to survive. You have been posting pictures going back since forever, and they all look exactly the same. You need a professional to untangle why you look in the mirror and see things that are not there, so that you can put this behind you and put your considerable ability to good use for once. Channel that obsessive discipline into something positive. Right now, it is mostly negative.

We are pulling for you.

This would probably be true, if @anna_5588 body wasn’t shutting down (not a metaphor or hyperbole, your body is literally shutting down some of its functionality to keep you alive). That changes things in a way an online calculator can’t predict.

I’m sorry, but we need a round of applause right here. That was good.

I was trying to poke hole in her sense that she’s eating a physics defying amount of calories. With her weekend eating and if she truly manages 2k on her days then she satisfies physics even for a normal person. But yeah, I do imagine her body to have been shutting down for quite some time. Especially now that she’s mentioned difficulties elevating heart rate.

Here are some words a friend told me the other day, and I now pass them onto you @anna_5588.

It’d be amazing to see how strong you would get if you just ate as you’re supposed to.

But also, therapy!

I’m inclined to agree in both cases

You won’t. Be honest with yourself.

Or if you eat more, it will be stuff that has no calories or protein while specifically cutting out meat and fruit, aka, protein and carbs, aka, the things that make muscle.

Just be honest with yourself. Your goal is being lean.
