How many times have you seen this? Some people don't get it!

This is the thread that just keeps on giving.

Still waiting to hear what your RMs are

RMs?

*snickersnort*

I'll help him out.

Rep Max.

Now you're like a Super Certified Trainer! You can raise your rates!

LMAO, i dont lift remember? but if i DID it would look something like this:

Flat Raw Bench 1X 405lbs
Squat 1x 385lbs

and i do curls in front of the mirror every day...

so then you got your definition from google images. gotcha.

I get it, all of you that are freaking out arguing like to be over weight. thats fine. Just dont complain that you dont see results is all. If you want results get your diet in check and your water intake in check. that is all

*looks at my pictures*

Huh. So that's what over weight looks like. Who knew!

:yawn:
This isn't fun anymore.
The stupidity of the OP has become too overwhelming.

I've done it before. My friend and I went to the gym. Then we went out for pizza after.

There's an exceptionally annoying dude at my gym who brought in a bag from McDonalds TO THE GYM and proceeded to eat it there. The smell of the french fries was making it hard for me to finish my workout!

I'm trying to figure out how I lost 90+ lbs but didn't see any progress. :huh:

Mmmmm, there's nothing better than a big, greasy meal and a tall, cold beer after riding 100 miles on my bike. OP, can you ride 100 miles? Oh that's not your goal? It was mine and I reached it without a restrictive diet.

Bacon cheeseburgers for everyone! :drinker:

Congrats on being so perfect that you are able to judge everyone else's fitness habits because your way is the only way.

It's nobodys business but my own what I eat and it's none of my business what anyone else eats and the same goes for you. I can understand your frustration, though. When I had to follow a strict meal plan, I would get angry at people who were eating junk food and crap when I couldn't. But that was my problem, not theirs. And this is your issue, not theirs.

Unless someone has hired you to be their food coach and you personally know their full health history, daily diet, work out schedule, etc..., then it's none of your concern what they eat and you are not in any position to judge. FYI - I'm going to have cheesy tots from Burger King today. And given that I've lost 84 pounds, have low blood pressure, low cholesterol, average bodyfat percentage, have amazed my doctor with my success and am smaller than I was in high school, I think I'll be just fine.

We could be twins!!! :flowerforyou:

Quite honestly, there are days when I work out harder so that I CAN enjoy that meal at Five Guys/McD's/local pizza joint. The OP needs to get that barbell out of his *kitten* and face it -- this is real life. It isn't religion... there is no "one true way."

Whatevs, OP... best of luck to you. You're gonna need it.

AGREED^^^^^

this thread needs some bacon . . .

True story.

TURKEY bacon will do just fine

oh NO you DIDNT~

I don't want to sound mean, but I agree, I see these people down the pool doing length after length only to stop at the vending machines and subway (it's next door to the pool) straight after and it's quite...disappointing. People need to realize that after exercise, protein is good, but fat slows digestion down and is quite bad (in terms of weight loss) after exercise

Science is your friend. This is all very wrong except the protein is good part.

"science is your friend" coming from the person who just said "mmm McRib"????!??! no. sorry. it absolutely does not work that way. Science IS our friend. and 70+ ingredients, plus the stuff they use to make the foamy part of yoga mats, are included in the McRib. and that's okay to put in your body?! please! it's not JUST about calories and fat grams and protein! the ACTUAL food you put in your body absolutely DOES matter. you may be able to get the "same" results in terms of weight loss by merely sticking to a certain amount of calories/fat but that in NO way means that a 700 calorie McDonald's meal is equal to a meal of fresh steamed vegetables, a lean protein such as chicken or fish, and a handful of almonds!

I honestly never knew how ignorant some people were when it came to nutrition until I came to this site. I am constantly blown away.

mmmmmmm....yoga mats....

Everything in moderation...even the *bad* stuff.

If you're an ultra-athlete I can see the danger of incorporating fast foods (or comfort food of some type) into your diet, but for those of us who are just trying to get to a healthier place and give our bodies a break, I think the occasional burger or taco can be eaten without guilt. Notice I say "occasional." Not everyday (or even every other day) but once a week works into my calorie journal without a hitch.

And with most restaurants posting calories now (McDonalds has it on their menu boards) it's actually possible to make a healthy-ish choice. A McDonalds Egg McMuffin w/o ham is only around 250 calories and it sometimes fills the need for "CARBs!!" that my body shouts for on those cold, rainy early mornings at work. Their grilled chicken sandwich w/o sauce is fairly decent too.

And maybe some people set that as their reward for good work. Maybe, after losing those 5 lbs and a dress size that they've worked their *kitten* off (literally) for, they've set their sights on one Big Mac for their acheivement. We all have to have our personal carrots to follow in order to pull the cart.

I don't think it's my business what other people eat. I have a hard enough time keeping up with what I'm eating!

^ This.

People really need to judge themselves and stop worrying about others. A lot more would be accomplished this way.
