easier to get muscle tone back?

[brainpain]

i was very fit and slim 7yrs ago. i had great abs and was toned . i had gained 50pnds due to 2 brain tumors. i have started feeling better and can handle workouts better now. i was wanting to know if because of my muscle tone before i gained weight would it be easier to get my muscle tone back ?

Most likely yes, it would be an easier journey for you since you were once fit. Weight gain is usually blamed on aging but it is also because of muscle depletion from exercise done during our childhood/youth. (Muscles help us maintain high metabolism). So those who were not fit in their youth in the first place would find it harder to tone muscles. You would also already possess the mindset required (drive, endurance etc) You'll be alright.

if you planned a good balanced diet , and a regular of 1 -2 hrs of workout you will definately get back your muscles back ....!!!

My boyfriend and I both think it's easier to get muscles back than it was to build them the first time.
