  • Wow, this was definitely a good way to get all the women on here going!! Not sure if someones already said this, soz just not going to go through 7 pages but thought id give you an honest opinion, as a guy. (at times too honest plus im a bit of a ****) No you do not love someone based on their physical attributes, love and…

  • Really nice diary, pretty good stuff, well balanced. keep doing what your doing and you should be fine. It could easily be water weight or just your muscle to fat ratio changing. That being said, mfp does tend to give a macro-nutrient ratio (carb:protein:fat) very low in protein and high in fats and carbs. You are…

  • Hi, 2 weeks is nothing, your body doesn't even really know whats going on yet. You have 2 choices here, 1 is to keep trying and at the very worst you will be healthier for it or 2, give up and inevitably regret it. If I may ask did you "myfitnesspal" do the amounts of carbs proteins and fats for you? I only ask as you have…

  • No they are not burnt equally at all. As the lady earlier said, there are different zones in which you can workout in (very good info). By training below 70% of your max heart rate (220 - your age) your body will use fat as a fuel although you will take longer to burn the same amount of calories. By training above you will…
    in Are all calories created equal? Comment by Absref71 August 2012
  • Very well said. To add, you glycogen stores are depleted after a workout especially if you have worked out on an empty stomach so the carbs are needed to replenish that. The applesauce will be very high in sugars, cutting down on that would be good *just randomly saying A nice touch is, take out some of that applesauce and…
    in How much protein? Comment by Absref71 August 2012
  • All calories are different. You should not be asking when to have your last calories as not eating too long before bed is not only bad for you but the hunger pains suuuuck but when to have your last carbohydrate. Any late night meal should be low to no carbohydrates as your body does not use carbs as fuel during sleep and…
    in what time of the day is best to used up all your cals Comment by Absref71 August 2012
  • Generally protein stays in your system for up to 3 hours (casein 6-8 hours) therefor in order to keep a constant supply of amino acids in your blood you need to eat every 3 hours.
    in 6 small meals a day is a scam? Comment by Absref71 August 2012
  • That is hugely cheating... The main rules are simple and constant, calories in must equal energy out or you will lose or gain weight. Even if your calories are lower than your limit for the day you will put on fat and lose muscle. By spending over half of your calories for the day on one meal you are effectively starving…
    in Is it this considered a cheating diet and is it healthy? Comment by Absref71 August 2012
  • Who ever told you that is an idiot... As the other guy said it is naturally produced in the body and is effectively an energy source for your muscles but yes it does make you retain water as well. Theres actually a vid on youtube, ill post the link, that explains it perfectly http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BR3dDO1Sz0E
    in Creatine Comment by Absref71 August 2012
  • Still working on my discipline so generally do most things intensely for short periods of time and the best thing you can do for cutting is to either start tapering your carbs down throughout the day so at night carbs are min and if you are able to stay disciplined then do a week or two of carb cycling but make sure you…
