Slow and steady wins the race! All the best man!

WTF?!? That's a good way to look like an idiot and get hurt in the meantime.

The stepper kicks my butt every time. I hate it, but love the results.

Holy smokes! Nice food intake. I'm jealous! Looks good to me. Try and slow down on any extra cardio, and just be consistent.

I'll do conventional on back day, and sumo on leg day.

I don't want to sound mean, but give some other stuff a try. You'd be surprised with some of the stuff you don't like. I'm sure any gym would have someone willing to help you out.

I was just making a joke. If you're not lactose-tolerant, try more dairy. That packs a punch when I'm trying to add easy calories. Or any complex carb.

I haven't read the whole thread, but I seem to drop body fat at maintenance.

Open up your diary to the public. I can bet you money you're not eating enough. Men should not have a problem gaining weight. Trust me.

400 calories a day is ridiculous for anyone. Sounds like you're just being too lazy to eat.

It takes less time to log foods than it does to write them down. I usually spend less than 5 minutes a day, total, logging my food. Congrats on your progress so far!!

Honestly, just get what tastes good. As long as you're not sucking down a dozen shakes a day, just use them when you're in a pinch and need protein. Don't sweat the "healthiest option."

Awesome! All the best!!

Cellucor for me. Best flavors in my opinion.

You can do a dexa scan. I think I pay $20-30 every 6 months to track my body fat.

It's a scam.

Open up your diary to the public, so we can see. Odds are, you're not tracking properly.

Consistency is the key. All the best!

Ms. Dash is my homegirl.

Bingo. I used to do ZERO sugar years ago. Now I do around 80g a day. I still stay pealed. Only difference is that I can enjoy the foods that I want daily, like ice cream and cereal.

Don't sweat it so much. Just because you're 3 weeks in, and down 6lbs, you're body is just getting used to this new lifestyle. Keep at it, and results will continue.

I used to get them bad when I started running. I started foam rolling them twice a day and stretching them before and after I ran. They eventually went away.

Yikes! According to my Polar HRM, I can smoke 600+ calories in an hour lifting weights.

Its all going to depend on intensity, rest between sets, rep range and how heavy the weight is (in relation to what's heavy for you). I also seem to burn more on leg days opposed to upper body.

Amazing!! I've been addicted to Fruit Loops with marshmallows lately.

What's wrong with cereal? I eat 1-2 servings of it every day.

Yea, I stopped reading the post after "Dr. Oz."

No food is going to "burn fat."

Honestly, it all comes down to how bad you want it. You'll find during your journey that some people only "kinda want it," or want the quick fix.

Have 2 sleeves and my legs done. Not one regret :)
