Genuinely the only difference I notice is that you are wearing your pants higher.

Yeah, I have a seven year old too. Things like that just don’t even register to me any more. :joy:

One of my more often used phrases–“I didn’t ask what you like. I told you to eat.”.

I understand this, in fact I lived through it. I just question quantity and duration, for “normal” people I the point would not be valid, but we are talking about Extreme Anna. Given that she is taking HRT and her numbers are lower than when she started.

Can depend what type of HRT, if its upstream hormones then staying in starvation mode could be preventing conversion?

I just don’t see broccolli being the cause of something so extreme, but more than anything its that hormone crash is a proven side effect of extreme calorie restriction.

Exercise anorexia is absolutely a thing, and I haven’t looked at the newest version, but the last DSM specified it as a sub-category, and so diagnosable for insurance billing purposes.

I notice you took the photo from a slightly different angle. This is literally the only way I know you aren’t full on cat fishing us by posting the same picture every week.

Different pants this week. Different people in the background through out.

I’m pretty darn ocd.

Week 2: Day 5

Back Squat: 1x10-40, 1x8-50, 4x3-60kg w/3sec pause, 3x4-65
Incline Bench: 5x5-40
Rows: 3x8-40

  • a bit sore and tired going in but not too bad, squats felt smooth and strong, bench really worked chest- easier than expected to complete, rows pumped back

Why do you call her that?

Accepted term is called Orthorexia. Sometimes it will be classified under Anorexia, but often times it gets grouped with Bulimia, since it’s considered a form of purging.

Weight: 40.2
Looking better @Pinkylifting was right

I’m thinking about weighing in on Mondays and Fridays so I can get an average
Also, should I do the t transformation?

I just find the wordplay funny, that’s all

If you don’t cut, yes. With others setting out to lose X pounds, you should set out to gain X pounds.

@kd13 shared this beautiful nugget with me, I felt you could benefit from it.

Thanks!

A reasonable approach, and a good idea to avoid daily.

Depends, will it help? I suspect it might be more counterproductive than helpful.

Week 3: Day 6 - yesterday’s training
(turns out I’d been labeling the week wrong :laughing: )

3x(20 alt lunges- 40lb KB+ 1min battle ropes+30sec rest)
3x(10 squats-40lb Kb+20alt pistols+1min battleropes+1min rest)
Tricep Pushdowns: 3x(10-27.5lbs+20-22.5lbs)

  • pretty intense but felt really refreshing to get blood flowing, triceps pumped- definitely had been slacking off w/ the accessories in the past :rofl:

Week 3: Day 7

20x(50alt lunges+25 pushups)-50:16

  • no flame pls… This was a challenge I’d been wanting to do for a couple of weeks now and I thought I had a bit more time before testing (whoops)…
  • It was a LOT easier mentally to get through than expected, got HR up and completed all sets of pushups unbroken!
