Anyone can feel free to add me!

Exactly. Protein shakes aren't bad, just not nessisary unless you just can't seem to get more nutrience into your body, maybe you don't have time to eat more or whatever else. Just try not to make it a full meal replacement. It just supplements what you're not getting through food.

Higher "processed carbs"? Uh yeah. Read stuff from the British medical journal. Or pick any other studies from various universities. I thought it was common sense by now that processed foods weren't as good for the body. I never said sweet potatoes were bad. I eat tons of carbs. But it's just in the form of leafy greens…

Yeah I'm my opinions will change over the years about many things. I'm not your son, I have 5 kids of my own and one in high school. How young do you think I actually am?lol running the body efficiently is not an opinion thing, it's a scientific thing. You're getting a little deep for a conversation about low carbs lol

Ok first off I never said you can't get good results from eating certain things. This was a low carb question in this forum. I was simply saying that eating low carb is not bad at all. And it's just a scientific fact that processed carbs and grains aren't the most nutrient dense foods. You can't argue with that. My before…

Ok since you also agree that I know nothing about nutrition and fitness, then teach me. I also wanna know how I'm in the kinda shape I'm in when I'm doing everything wrong. That's a real question by the way.

Satiety levels?lol.. Not 100% proper usage of that silly word but close enough to let it slide. You clearly didn't fully understand where I was coming from since you seem to be on here to pick fights. I never gave a set amount of a small portion size that would fill someone up, which is what "satiety" means lol omg open up…

Yeah well I not only go by how my body reacts, but also I read articles in medical journals. So yeah, carbs like pasta, breads and grains are not that good for you at all. They are indeed worthless. Fibrous carbs are very good for you as well as a moderate amount of protein and good amount of fats. You can keep your…

The easiest way is to eat healthy, move around, and don't waste money on protein powders and supplements. Getting all your nutrience from whole foods will yield much better results guaranteed.

Don't listen to anyone that is negative about low carb. I've been doing it for years and I feel fantastic. It's extremely healthy for your body. All the carbs I get are from veggies. I get moderate protein and a good amount of fat. I have way more energy than I did years ago with eating a bunch of worthless processed carbs…

Training in a fasted state is extremely beneficial. After a week or so you get use to it and feel very powerful. I've been doing IF for a few years now and love it. I fast for about 16 hours. Easiest way is just wait 5 hours or so after you wake up then eat your first meal.

-Is this bump noticeable? -You got gas money?

Yeah well I ate an entire 12 inch pizza the ofter day. And guess what? It was soooo good lol it's all good to indulge every once an a while.

I personally keep my macros set at 65%fat..25%protein..10%carbs But that's just what works best for me. I eat lots of chicken, beef, (whole eggs), veggies, leafy greens and avocados. No dairy, and no supplements of any kind. And some red wine with the wife lol

If you are getting enough nutrition, the number of meals has nothing to do with anything. Just like "meal timing" and eating a bunch of meals doesn't do anything but keep food in your stomach all day. I've done 6 meals or more a day, 3 meals, 2 meals EVEN 1 meal with an all day fast. My results were pretty damn close. Eat…

If you're craving junk foods, then it's actually the cells in your body craving something different. Your brain is just making you think you want the junk. And then if you eat junk, I bet you get hungry real quick later and crave even more. Once you choose certain things that are nutrient dense, you'll find you won't crave…

Eat the fat dude, it's good for you! Just stay away from processed garbage. Other than that, fat won't make you fat. 60% of my diet is fat and not only am I fit, but my blood tests all come back fantastic.

Yeah, what Dano74 said. What are you trying to do?

Hey add me! 32 year old husband and father of 5!! 2 girls and 3 boys. And I work full time. Would love to help anyone trying to get motivated and do this thing. You're not alone!!

Anyone can feel free to add me. Any questions you might have just ask. I love helping. Welcome to MFP :-)

Add me!

Pretty simple fix here. Either you're not eating enough, or not eating enough of the nutrience your body is wanting. Veggies, fats, and proteins will keep you full. My main issue with carbs is that when you metabolize them, your sugars go up which causes the insulin spike, then drops back down real quick. The result is a…

Agreed with everyone, just be patient. You see your stomach the most so it's hard not to think about it, but it will go away. It's all about nutrition if you're trying to get lean. We all want that belly fat gone. You're not alone..

My bench press has always been my weekest lift

I'd love to be friends with all of you. You all seem like awesome people!

You and anyone can add me. I'm always looking for more motivating friends!

Ok I feel like this all went a bit off topic of the original question.. Bottom line of gaining muscle are really just 2 simple steps. 1. Eat a healthy balanced diet that YOUR body thrives from. 2. Time under tension. I might just have good genetics to look like I do iduno...

The best fat burner is nutrition. Dropped 50 lbs in the last 5 months without one single type of supplement, crazy workouts or insane diet. It all comes down to the food.

Ok, like the thousands of studies that show a link between processed carbs and cardiovascular disease, and how lowering carbs with moderate protein and higher fats did in fact lower blood preasure and LDL cholesterol better than any other diet. Triglycerides are shown to drop drastically as well as improve insulin…

Id love to join you! I need motivating friends on here as well. Makes things much easier!!
