    Do you know all there is to know about health and are happy with your body?

    To the first part...duh...of course I do...I'm on MFP, aren't I???


    ...and to the second part...duh...of course not...I'm on MFP, aren't I???


    We're all here for the same reason.


    I just need to figure out what uniquely works for my body.


    Also, I thought MFP was for support.


    Something something something Thumper, what did your father tell you this morning? something something.

    :laugh:
    ...sorry didn't have anything to add to the thread. Just thought that ish was funny.

    We are about in the same place, I cut to 170 and am very happy with the results but would like the BF to be a tad lower as well. I have just switched to a slight maintenance. Hopefully I will see some results, still going to try to build muscle and lower body fat, difference is I am eating another 800 calories a day than I was used to eating. Lets see what happens.

    (Rare serious moment:

    I bulked for three (or four?) months at ~3000-3700 calories...went from 168ish to 188 (on 2/1/2014). Transitioned to a deficit, at at 1971 calories for a few weeks, losing too quickly and struggled to hit macros, so bumped to 2100 and am doing much better there. Losing about 1.5 pounds/week on average but am closer to 1 pound/week most recently. Need to take some measurements (tape/caliper) and reevaluate the next phase of the plan. Am really looking forward to resuming eating like a grown man again. (disclaimer: All numbers and dates from memory as my notes aren't in front of me right now.))

    Okay, now back to the main point of this thread, which is:

    That's preferable to the actual reference.

    If you don't have anything nice to say...

    ...you should go DIAF. Stupidhead.

    Mr T impersonates Forest Gump quite well, so I read a lot of things in that voice...

    That other thread is doing so much better than mine. Maybe mine is missing something.

    Yeah, she's killing me.

    The original is (almost) always better than the sequel(s).

    Did you see how many pages Robert Downy Jr. racked up just biting his lower lip? That could be you, jof. Definitely need more pictures. Amber and I will be waiting over here.

    I don't think jof has ever bitten Robert Downy Jr's lip so it would be hard for him to post a pic of that.

    I hit my initial 2014 cut goal weight of 175 today. I'm pleased with the results so far, but am not quite where I want to be BF% so I'm going to continue at 2100 calories (with a TDEE w/out extra exercise of ~2700) for a while longer with a new goal of 170. Will plan to bump up my calories by a few hundred and transition into maintenance over the next 3-4 weeks. I hope I can get there without getting much smaller overall...and then back to maintenance+ for the summer.

    That is all.


    (Hmmm. Guess I really didn't want any opinions after all. *shrug* :ohwell: )




    edit: because I didn't know this was English class...and people are mean.

    Maybe reverse diet out to 2700, up protein and lower carbs to 30%, lift heavy and watch the fat go bye bye.....

    I just can't do that. Not even for hits.
