  • I've lost 70 pounds and, since March, I'm working towards reducing my body fat. Last time I've checked, went from 20 to 12% whislt maintaining my weight (195lbs-ish, 6ft 3). Now I'm thinking about gaining mass.

  • Just eat more, it's simple. You don't have to respect your caloric goal limits if you're trying to gain.

  • If you aren't gaining any weight, up your calories! I think your protein intake is more than enough. I'm eating around 150-180g of protein per day and weight 195lbs currently. Sadly, because of my height, body type and etc, I'm not even near showing 6 pack. Most of my bf is concentrated on my belly (wich is still with a…

  • My weight has maintained (no more than 5lbs variation) over the past 3 months. The only thing that has changed was my bf % (from 20 to 12), because of the gym. Now that I'm comfortable about maintaining weight, I'm ready to bulk up!

  • 64 lbs in 4.5 months (from 262 to 198) Have lost another 4.5lbs since, but I'm basically in maintenance, just trying to reducing body fat %. Gonna start bulking soon :smile:

  • Here in Brazil, the protein I get from chicken breast is 5x cheaper than I get from a good quality whey powder, unfortunately. In here, a 2lbs whey protein of good quality is about 50 dollars, whereas chicken breast is about 2 dollars per pound. Even if the powder contains 80% protein (1.6lbs), It's way less than the…

Even if the powder contains 80% protein (1.6lbs), It's way less than the protein from 25lbs of chicken breast (8lbs of protein), which costs roughly the same. Five times less,…

  • Since I'm losing weight, I'm doing only cardio. I'll only start lifting in about a month, when I hit my goal. I'd like to change my diet together with my new objective to improve it. At first I'll aim to balance my caloric burn/intake and then, when my fat levels diminish a little bit more, I'll start to eat at a gain,…

  • This is brazilian cuscuz (is made of corn flakes, not wheat like in Morocco). I usually eat with half a spoon of light butter, a scrambled egg and coffee w/ skimmed milk. It's around 350 calories total and I love it. It's basically the one food I never get tired of, and I eat it since I was a child. Just perfect :smiley:

  • Hi there. I see that your goal weight for this month is 41lbs less than you weight today. I think you should aim for a lower loss, since hardly anybody can lose more than 20lbs per month (most weight loss programs tops at 2lbs/week). Since, by the looks of your profile, you're just starting losing weight, I think you…

Since I'm pretty satisfied with my loss rate and I understand as time goes by it tends to slow down, I'm choosing something that is satisfying, possible and not too stressful to do. I think everybody should find that middle ground…
