Whether your goal is maintenance, fat loss, or muscle gain, your body will most likely need to adjust to the Macrostax way of fueling. This adjustment can look different for everyone, but we do tend to see some similarities among our new Macrostaxers when they first start out. To prepare you for your journey we put together a list of some of the common changes and experiences that you can expect to see within the first 4-6 weeks of the program. You may see some changes that aren't on this list, and that is ok! Remember that each body responds in its own way.
Some initial weight gain
Bloating
Increased energy
Questioning whether this is right for you because of the increased intake
Getting out of the “dieting” mindset and making nutrition a lifestyle choice
Receiving positive comments from friends and family before you see it yourself
Getting PRs in the gym
Sleeping better
Hunger fluctuations or feeling overly stuffed
Having friends and family not understand what you’re doing and why
These are some of our common newbie experiences and we want you to know that if you do come across any of these that you are NOT alone! We are here to help every step of the way and are here to support you even if others are not.
You’ve got this!
