You hang out, see who can back it up with science. You learn who you can trust. No one is infallible but there are some here that are darn close and if they say something that is incorrect it is usually minor. I trust @ninerbuff @rabbitjb @SLLRunner @usmcmp and many others here because they give great advice. Anyone who is newer, I always take a wait and see approach. There are others who have lots of posts, who are not as trustworthy, but they usually get called out. When someone calls someone else out, with science, it is the BEST!How are we suppose to know who's actually right and who's wrong.
I need proof please... Post it! Thanks.
Gee @daniwilford...thank you

I've done curls with 50lb rice bag at home.Therealobi1 wrote: »asimmons26 wrote: »Most calorie strategies for weight loss have a downfall. The reason is all calories are not created equal. Your best bet is to just worry about eating clean and drinking half your body weight in ounces of water each day. Your BMR doesn't stay the same. (As you stated) The better fit or unfit you become you would need to recalculate everything. Temperature also changes your BMR so to go strictly off of a calculation like TDEE would need to be an estimate only. Don't even bother with that. Stay away from whites (rice, bread, pasta). These should only be eaten for special occasions. Replace these with Ezekiel bread, quinoa, etc. Get creative with your veggies, no butter. Your veggies should be the biggest portion on your plate.
i feel sorry for the cultures where rice is the staple diet.

Thanks for the props!natboosh69 wrote: »I think OP has deleted her profile, showing as 'Page not found'.
Also I would agree that @rabbitjb, @usmcmp, @SLLRunner, @ninerbuff etc seem to know their stuff. I'm a fairly rare poster as you can see but I am a full on lurker I've learnt a lot from posters such as the above.

@SLLRunner how can you eat that and the go for run? Do you just wait a certain amount of time? Because that looks heavenly. I've apparently never eaten a good scone, just the nonsense in coffee shops that do not look like that.0 -

Well cream is a topping ...hence it goes on top
Also you want the soft cream to hit the roof of your mouth first as the scone hits the taste buds on your tongue and them squish together to get strawberry jam goodness
Seriously ev. I thought you did science

Up until the last 2 weeks of competition, I ate chocolate chip cookies and candy, so I totally get where you're coming from.asimmons26 wrote: »Back to the calories are not equal. This is very simple. You eat 100 calories of French fries and I will eat 100 calories of veggies. Then let's see who has more energy. You can google not all calories are equal and find a ton of information backing this. The information I gave as to not all calories being equal was just a very quick statement without going into complex digestion and energy process of different foods. Your energy level has everything to do with how your lose weight.
I generally eat "empty" calories daily, even while prepping for a bodybuilding competition. 100 calories is a drop in the bucket for the amount of calories I eat while cutting. It's about overall context of the diet, not some random 100 calories.
I think I get the spirit of what she is saying. I thought I would eat a doughnut before a run once. It has a high carb content, so I thought why not? Well there is obviously a lot of fat also. I burped and refluxed that damn thing for a good three miles. I was miserable. I would have been better off eating oranges. That's a content problem though.
Pre-workout fuel would be different than everything else you eat during the day. Just like I said, context of the diet. 100 calories is a much larger portion of 1200 calories than it is of 2100 calories. Eating some candy every day along with lean protein, quality fats and vegetables could make the difference between staying on track or failing for some people (like me, a binge eater).
True, very good point about staying on track. I couldn't survive clean eating all the time. I've tried to do challenges with my sister before, and I can't do it. I eat a lot of veggies, but the limitation is just too much for me to sustain.
I would never have competed in a bodybuilding competition if my trainer had put me on a strict diet with zero sweets in it. Some people don't mind eating that way, for others it's a recipe for failure. Sometimes 100 or 200 "empty" calories saves me from 3,000 calories worth of whatever is within reach.
