    You need to go in and change your settings for the percentages of carbs/proteins/fats! Someone recommended to me to put them at 40/30/30... I am still over on carbs all the time though...

    How do you do this?



    Go to the My Home tab, click Goals, Change Goals, select Custom and put in the percentages.

    Thank you! :)

    Cut out the fruit. Eat every three hours small meals...chicken, rice, broccoli.

    Why cut out the fruit? Why eat small meals every 3 hours?

    No one ever mentions Martin Berkhan. Am I the only one that appreciates this guy?

    Hell no. I mention Martin all of the time. Guy puts out great content and has helped a lot of people through IF. I think the physiological effects from IFing are over-hyped based on the totality of research. If there are physiological benefits to it, they're likely miniscule. There might be a slight partitioning advantage... but who knows. We'll know a lot more in due time once more research comes about.

    But there's no doubt that some people do awesome following an IF approach and chances are it's more about it matching certain dieters in terms of behavior/psychology.

    But Martin is definitely one of the good guys.... anyone taking an evidence based approach that's paired with objectivity and the desire to maintain information integrity is aok in my book.

    I was having such a hard time figuring out how I could keep this post menopausal body from gaining back the weight and IF has proven to be invaluable to me.

    Haha.

    It really does sadden me though that our diet culture has degraded to such a degree where people are fearing the consumption of fruit.

    And if you only lose 2 while adding 1 of muscle and you're happy with the way that you look and feel, give up on the 5 as it's beyond arbitrary.
