I had Fruit Loops post-workout this week. You will never tell me to put those carbs down! LOL

Yea, Mexican is an easy 1.5-2k calories per meal.

They make some nice flavored powdered greens supplements that would help out.

I log everything. Weight training, cardio and food. It gives me the best idea where to tweak once I hit a plateau.

Logging your cheat meal DOES matter. Whether or not you're over your calories or not, log everything. Being honest and accurate with your lifestyle will really show what you can tweak (or work on) to keep a steady weight loss.

I don't consider any of this a diet. It's all lifestyle!

Supplements and all these weight loss shakes are just Marketing 101. That's it. Coming from someone who used to take every supplement under the sun, I can tell you first hand, they made NO difference at all. I'm talking about test boosters, fat burners, pre-workouts, etc. I currently just take the basics- vitamins,…

I'm close to 2,300 on days I'm active. And I'm a very active person.

No offense to your trainer, but you're not building muscle weight just yet. You need to work out and/or exercise a bit more frequent than just 2 days a week. Consistency is the key. How honest/accurate are you with weighing your foods?

Quest Bars. Quest Bars. Quest Bars. Quest Bars.

Low carb day? Never heard of it.

There ya go. Track your foods as accurately and honestly as you can. Consistency with this will render results. I promise you :)

Start your diary, track your foods correctly (and honestly), and BOOM- weight comes down.

Protein powder is just that, it's just protein. There's no rule to take it around a workout or not. Take it as you need. I love protein powders when I'm in a pinch, or on the road. Easy calories and protein.

Make sure you measure your food correctly. This was my biggest mistake last year. Measure your whole foods by the grams, rather than by the cup size.

You need to fuel your body with the amount of exercise you do!

Awesome! Wish you all the best. This site really helps you hold yourself a bit more accountable.

Most meats and protein powders fit too.

Egg whites are my go-to easy protein/no carb meal.

Don't think of it as a cheat meal. Just add it into your daily macros. :)

Feel free to add me. I love meeting new people with similar goals.

Hell yea! Nice work

If you want to look gross like me, lift weights. :p

Since I work a desk job, I love getting a workout in before and after work. Makes me feel great. Usually just weights in the morning, and cardio after work.

I think you have to be on a computer. I can never add people on my phone for some reason :\

Holy smokes! Nice work.

Do you notice you have a weak or lose grip?
