I found these photos taken of me last week, and I'm very unhappy with how my body looks. I've gained a good amount of weight (138lbs- 152lbs) in the past year mainly from being in a happy relationship. I have been trying to maintain a calorie deficit, exercising regularly plus my job is very active, but I feel as though the scale keeps getting higher. In what ways would it be best to lose this weight especially around my stomach thighs and arms?
