This is where I go to enjoy some positive interactions on our finess and dietary lifestyle So much of what is out there is carb focused information since that industry has had great sway. Our group gives balance There are lots of people that live this and not just talk about it! We share with each other nicely, Play good…

Good idea I was amazed to see someone using large romaine leaves as taco shells I have used one as the top of a burger bun before And of course the UnWhich from Jimmy Johns!

That is an inspiring story of what love really is

Some feelings of inferiority creep in But to worry about infidelity is a bit much I can't really deal with that. If me losing 100 pounds makes me a cheater then it is kind is over anyway at that point Maybe I'm too hard in my point of view but if the other person feels that inferior what would life be like? People are…

I get kind of hunger numb for a bit after a hard ride But I know I have to eat or lose muscle so I eat

I don't want to run afoul of a moderator.... But dang you are looking good! Nicely done Woot Woot!!!

Wow that is a great transformation !! Awesome job @Miami1976D

I'm over a bit too. I'm 12.8-13.1% fat depending on the day It is a fairly useless measure to people with extra muscle For everyone else, BMI is a good indicator

WLS I'm sorry but I don't know what that means.

I'm on a phone None of that seems available on the iPhone app Is it a laptop only kind of thing to get the full functionality of MFP?

What BaconSlave said Don't tweak, just stick with it. The fat will eventually go.

130 net. Lost more fat and added about 20 lbs of muscle over 2 years 44 pants to 32 It has just been sticking with it and watching total calories I do moderate carbs mainly from veggies No sugary junk food at all. No doughnuts or cake. No pasta or French fries I added exercise to add muscle and lead down. I'm at 13% body…

MFP is a uniquely screwed up place It has some good. But there are some bizarre posts as well.

The women always choose the guy. They just let us chase them till they feel like keeping us And let us think we caught them !

Spin class had this song I so want to hate.... But it has a great beat to go fast to Closer By Tegan and Sara I so want to hate that song but it is like an infection!

Maybe just take 2 weeks and do something different. Let the legs rest Go back with stiff leg deads and pretty heavy kettle bell swings Legs are very adaptive Being stalled for months is definitely odd, for me anyway. It may seem a bit different but I bicycle as my cardio and leg strength exercise aside of lifting. Climbing…

Rocky did Do you tell that tractor tire "I will crush you"

Congrats on your weight loss! That is a big deal. That is a touchy and funny topic of your s.o. Enjoying your body but also not wanting others to My gf loves my cycling team outfits, skin tight spandex. She also hates them at the same time for the reason you mentioned. She even says it! You know you are not looking for…

Deflating the gut helps male appearance Hmmmm But guys have to work not to have no butt syndrome after weight loss. My trainer, a woman, had me start kettle bell swings and stiff leg deadlifts to keep a symmetry in my appearance

I alternated 2 weeks weights and 2 weeks cardio I gained a little muscle and lost a little fat in the course of a month It kept it from being boring Now I ride my bike 4 days a week and lift 2 Cardio burns way more calories than lifting, but I love lifting! Diet, cardio... Get you lean. Lifting hard and adequate protein…

If I don't work out I avoid all that fake sugar and near sugar stuff Yesterday was an intense cardio day so I had some to keep at max effort level to get a good fast ride time For this ride I had 300 calories of straight up sugar. It was an all out effort kind of ride

Punch your data into the food log and it will tell you based on weight loss goals by the week Gonna ball park guess it will be between 1800-2200 for a normally active male to drop a pound a week Using a scale and food log is a great way to keep on track

Can't see it Are you eating too many calories? Low carb does not void reasonable CICO consideration

I'm a coffee addict Mmmmmmmmmmm New Starbucks bold Anniversary Blend out !!! I'm in my happy place

So true @Foamroller When our ambition exceeds our ability we get run down But that is a great place to be! The environment for positive change and growth ! Seeing the positive in that instead of getting frustrated helped me on this long road to fitness. And it never ends...

Another simple thing The body needs a rest day. It is easy to get carried away with it and not take a rest day. So today, rest as required. It is just that simple

Exercise is part of your calories out balance. I love exercise as a way to manage my health, and a way to manage calorie deficit There is no separation of health related to diet, from health related to exercise, as if you have two different bodies! It is one body you make more healthy by using both. Managing what goes in…

Ok This is a wee bit off topic What about dextrose? I get lots of that in electrolyte packs. That is my experience with them. I eat them right before exercise, or perish the though... An actual Snickers bar 250 calorie size. Seems that burning it up within half an hour of eating it does not cause me any issues For lunch…

I'm in very slow fat loss and body recomposition now. I don't really watch weight so much but go by body fat percentage. I don't fast ever since I'm almost always sore somewhere on my body. I get up sometimes in the middle of the night to have a protein shake In the early days of this diet adventure I almost never ate…

Exercise it off It is just fuel Use it up If you bust behind and work it off You may be less likely to do it again
