In my country, all personal trainers I ve came accross, nutritionnists interviews and people in general are adament about the starvation mode.... it's going to take time to change minds ...

I was able to change my body shape without lifting weights so it is possible. I could not lift weights as I tend to get injuries very quickly, obviously due to poor technique but nonetheless I had to stop. Instead, I do a lot of resistance training via TRX (suspension) using my own body weight and some advanced pilates.

I had the same issue .,, I usually have an occasional glass of wine at lunch (rarely at night) and I take some Rhodiola supplement in the morning. Do you drink during your workout as well? If you are dehydrated maybe drink some additional coconut water it helps a lot.

I did both at the same time 7 years ago and it was the best thing to do. Quitting smoking can affect so much your mood and you also trigger some nasty cravings... training helped me completely control them and deal with the frustration over quitting - it was basically my way of compensating. As a results, I melted in no…

Well I have a different experience to share; breakfast is the most important meal for me - intermittent fasting did not work for me at all because of that. I tried and it really messed my internal rythme up, I wasn't hungry during my fasting period but when my feeding time came it went a bit out of control as I had…

I couldn't agree more.... I love love food and I am slim as well as many of my friends (junk food only taste like salt to me and personally I don't like it I usually eat real food and cook elaborate meals...). Food isn't evil and is not the ennemy. Overweight/ Obsese people usually have issues and food unfortunately "help"…

I couldn't agree more with everything you said - no need to comment then !

... probably because you have a better diet

That's just your opinion, and I shared mine. Whether you like it or not it's part of the discussion so I suggest you to move on.

he's not wrong.... I have been around athletes most of my life and they never restricted their carbs quite the opposite....your experience though may be different and this isn't applying to you but that does not mean he is wrong.

I disagree with a lot of people here because I simply have a different experience: no keto, no weighing, no logging... I eat just healthy food (that includes as many fruits that I need/want) I enjoy and sometimes a high calorie meal (without making myself sick over it) , do some exercise, try to get 8 hours sleep (when the…

I consider this movement dangerous, as the pro-ana, they need some help and they are crying out for help.... That being said I do not bully or being disrespectful to obese people... why do people here are associating the two?

100% I eat healthy most of the time (but tasty food I enjoy) and if I feel like it I ll have a high calorie day, it s not a big deal at all. There are periods when I eat a bit too much but I m not making myself sick about that as I have healthy habits overall. The results of weight loss makes me feel so good - I m finally…

I could not agree more. Now that I have a baby, its even more obvious.. my husband is just additional chores to me

Confidence is what I find attractive (not arrogance though)

I've done it from 62 kilos to now 52.5 i still need to loose 2 kilos (i m very short). Try fo find healthy food that you like for instance I added a lot of avocados and sweet potatoes to my diet, it helped me feeling satisfied as I love it so much (so very little junk food temptations and if any I would indulge without…

What is wrong with meat lovers? Sometimes it s good to be friend with people different than us, it cultivates open mindness

Smoking smoking smoking - is orse, I wasn't overweight at all and quite fit but a smoker.... after few years I started to have some serious health issues due to my smoking ... I stopped it and became soooo healthier and happier (and richer and you smell nicer too) ... I have been smoke free for 7 years and I d rather put…

I ve read a few model's interview and they eat very little and train 5 times a week, they (the ones interviewed) often consider eating fish as a "treat", very often eat vegan/ plant food diet (but not exclusively as they have fish for great occasions

Wraps ....

I always heard that too and its BS, I lost all the weight by training 5 times a week....

Just brush your teeth it works

I love black coffee, just a small cup - my favorite brand is clipper (organic & fairtrade)

I would consider homemade when you cook it from the scratch

Saggy skin... :/

When I sometimes do cardio classes (not weight lifting) some clowns grunt or scream, and I swear that really annoys me, I want to beat the life out of them (but I keep it all inside :) )

Favorites is Boxing, goes very fast and it's fun

I have usually one cheat meal per week, usually when I have been training hard. It hasn't been a problem at all (I don't count calories) as I have almost reached my weight loss goal. Most importantly it keeps me happy and satisfied.

Active imo
