hi all! i am so thankful to have found this community! i am a 26 year old female who has been lifting for about 6 months. i originally started lifting when i was on a 100% raw vegan diet. i found the diet to be to restrictive/isolating for my lifestyle so i switched to a vegetarian diet. since then i have put on a lot of unwanted bulk. i know most trainers say it is impossible for women to "bulk up" but my body really looks bulky (without definition). i run 3.5 miles 5 times a week and lift 6 times a week. i predominately follow a whole foods diet lots of fresh raw fruits and veggies, whole grains, every blue moon some cheese or something containing eggs but mostly it's vegan. i'm 5'5" 144lbs. lots of muscle, but i'm still bulky. i would like to trim down maybe 8-10 lbs. any suggestions? my lifting routine is: Monday/thurs: shoulders,biceps,triceps tues/fri: back, chest, abs wed/sat: legs and running 3.5 miles 5 times a week. thanks in advance! -regan
