So I've heard calories are bad for you, but if you zumba really heavy, then it's ok to eat 1/3 of your calories back. But if I don't eat those good 1/3 calories and only eat the bad calories, my body will go into starvation mode and my hair will fall out. Is this true ? What can I do ? If I deadlift and squat in my vibrams will I be OK ? Because I'm in vff's I won't have to do calf raises anymore right ? And since I squat and dead heavy, I don't ever need to do another situp or back extention again.
I logged a 2 mile walk that took me 1 hour to do. I couldn't find that exactly so I logged it as "walking 10mph". It said I burnt 2200 calories - does that sound right ? I've only been eating half of those back and for some reason, I'm not loosing any weight. I think MFP is wrong with its calculation so what should I do ?
Should I track my trips to the water fountain when I work out ? Or only when I have to go upstairs at work to get a drink?
Obviously I'm confused because I'm supposed to be eating 299g carbs and day which seems really low. I completely sedentary and yet I supposed to eat 1g of protein per day per lean muscle mass. My diary will reduce my carb intake if I increase my protein but I can't eat all that protein. Is using a thigh master the same as being an athlete? I really get a real burn when I use it just like I did 32 years ago when I was in track. Maybe I should be eating 1.5g per pound of protein because I really sweet and need it and I've put on 15 pounds of "mussels" in two days.
Maybe I should eat paleo but ignore the sugar in fruit - yea, that's good. I'll paleo with lots of pineapples and oranges each day. Then I'll just skip a meal and have a special K protein shake instead. Is that OK ? Afterall your body knows that this is healthy sugar right - it has a brain. And special K is proven to be healthy and help loose weight. I see that every night during the news so it must be true.
Should I supplement with some creatine for recovery of my workouts. If I cardio really hard, will I puke ? Is that bad ? Maybe if I keep my heart rate down in the fat burning range I can workout for 1 hour and burn 60 calories of which 80% will be fat burning(48) instead of going hard for 10 minutes and burning 120 at only 50% fat burning (60).
When should I shower and when is it ok to wear hair and makeup to my kettle bell class ? If I crossfit will I get bulky or will that only happen if I eat 17 blocks of fat ? If I do arm curls in front of the mirror for 3 sets of 5 reps will I lose my belly fat and get really strong?
... seriously ....
Does anyone else feel like this is exactly how the collective voice of these discussion board sounds ?

See, that's what happens when you make friends with so many awesome people. They're bound to disagree at some point and then you're standing there like..... "Dafuq do I do now???"0 -
