CICO doesn't mean you have to count calories. It means the only why to lose weight is to eat less calories than you burn and the only way to gain weight is to eat more calories than you burn. The method used to get there doesn't change that. Of course macros and micros matter for health. CICO doesn't doesn't get in the way…

No it's you who has no clue.

Your body can only go so low with calories before you start losing hair and your organs start shutting down. Don't burn calories to get lower than what your body needs for survival or you will have the same results. Everyone's needs will be different, but let's say you need 1200 at a minimum and 2000 to maintain your…

Saturday I realized that my goal shirt was the only one that fit.

I've also heard increasing protein will help with soreness. I'm not sure if my source was reliable. Can anyone tell me if this is true or not?

I've always heard stretching before exercising is bad. I was surprised to see people telling the OP to stretch.

I get that. I'm the type of person who gives the tv 100% of my attention or none. There's really no in between for me. I've never understood people who will get up and go to the bathroom or something and not pause the tv.

I avoid watching anything I wouldn't want my children watching. If they don't need to see it neither do I. There are plenty of great shows that I find okay for children, but everyone has a different idea of what is okay for their kids to see.

Scrubs

Well, what she said wasn't even an opinion. It was actually a false claim. Big difference...

This is complete BS.

Beer is proof that God loves us and wants us to be happy.

What's your point, captain obvious? OP asked why people feel the need... I explained why I feel the need to talk about my old self in that way.

So I'm thinking about starting with some dumbbells, and I'm thinking about taking advice from this video. I want to know if you all think this is a good place to start. The video claims these 8 exercises will work every muscle, but I have no idea if that's true. Would I be missing any important muscles if I did this? I'll…

I've got 4 places hair won't grow properly, but if I grow my beard big enough you can't tell. It takes me 6 months or more to get it long enough to hide the bald spots.

It could be that you are eating too many carbs at one meal. You can't eat a bunch of carbs for breakfast and then eat no carbs for lunch or your blood sugar is probably going to freak out. My grandfather eats 5-6 meals a day and his carb limit looks like this--50,20,50,20,50,20 He eats every 2-3 hours. He can't save carbs…

You want to worry about getting your carbs in check if you're "pre" diabetic. The sugar is included in the carb count on nutrition labels. If your doctor didn't mention that, you might want to get a check up from someone else. You really don't even need to look at sugar. You don't want to cut carbs completely out of your…

My wife and I have lost weight at about the same time. We regularly look at old photos just to talk crap about how fat we were. We never get offended about it. I look at it as a way to say good riddance to someone who had no self respect. We still have a long way to got so, I'm sure the photos we put on Instagram today…

I'd call it a strength if you did good in your classes. Don't sell yourself short, you're awesome.

Calorie counting is easier for you, but don't pretend you know what is easier for other people cause you don't. You can't know how low calorie someone is eating just based off that list of rules. it would not be hard to stay at a healthy deficit using that list.

CICO is math. Math is a strength for some and a weakness for others. Obesity has increased because of easier access to cheap high calorie food, and non calorie burning entertainment like you tube and forums. CICO is at work wether you track or not. There is no way around that.

CICO doesn't work for everyone. I'm not saying the science of CICO doesn't work for everyone, just that some people don't know how to track CICO. People have different strengths and weaknesses, so it makes sense that we would have different methods.

I will actually be sitting in the comfort of my air conditioner and leave that comfort just to pee outside. This is the main reason I could never live in a city.

I pee in the shower every time I shower.

Mine usually last less than a week. I'm pretty sure it's because of retaining water cause the weight falls off quicker after I get out of it. I just keep counting my calories until it works it's self out. I also recalculate my maintenance calories every time I loss 2-5 pounds. It's as simple as calories in vs. calories out…

Original or wavy lay's potato chips have lots of fat and carbs. Drizzle chocolate for more deliciousness.

know what you mean, I ate a sweet potato last night and I was going to put some stuff on it, but I was enjoying it plain so I left it that way.

Thanks that sounds awesome!

I assume you meant "what does the q stand for" USA Today says it stands for "queer or questioning" Their is also an "A" that stands for "asexual or ally".
