I saw a gal running last fall with a belt holding 5 er 6 water bottles. That's a gal in it for the.long haul ... hats off!

I dont have his 'programs', but I have watched a number of his WHYtube videos. That's saying quite a bit from somebody who knows much of that site is just attention needy dribble. I like Jeff's 'work out on your feet' approach.

If you dont eat, you'll die due.to starvation. Depends on amt of body fat present and other factors just.when that will occur. May also include weakness, delusions, disorientation, organ failure, brain damage ... in various conbinations. A 'mode' has been hyped to no end. The fact is that.malnitrition and.starvation…

Roudy Rhonda Rousey is hot. Other than that ... 🤔

Oh, having read some of this thread, lemme just state Are some guys jerks? Prolly. Does it go on in various.locations? Sure. Do women AND.men sometimes take things differently than they were intended? Yup. That said, I'm a guy, but I am seriously not good at apologizing for what I didnt personally do. I mean not good as in…

Haven't really dealt with any of that. Mostly friendly folk around here. There are some rules at the gym, but I'm not the owner or the enforcer. Only incident ever was one girl when I was new.to the gym. She was using one side of a cable machine so between sets I asked if she knew where the attachment straps were kept. She…

No tech, unless you count the fact that my.phone timer ticks off 45 seconds between weight lifting sets. Oh, and Google maps tells me how far I'm about to ride my bike. I actually think more ppl strung out on devices than will admit it. And while I haven't counted it looks like around here the boys may be worse than the…

I eat cottage cheese near daily. Good source of whey protein. Yogurt for the casein. If all the kids ate getting is proteins, I wouldnt worry about it. Other additives may be an issue.

An extra inch difference between my chest and waist. 1/2" larger chest.and 1/2" smaller waist would work.

Am I missing something here? Your Ben h was low, so you started benching, and your bench improved. Are we saying the same thing here? I do t "bench" as a rule, usually it's just incline (STEEP incline) with dumbbells. But recently did a flat bench for 5 sets of 8, just switch it up type thing. I dont know what the 1-rep…

Well, that's largely what I did, though I may have underestimated just a tad. I said 'sitter's or whatever word they used, but I do move around a bit. I may do a bit more than 'sit', but figured it was a ballpark

That's what I said. If you want to get good at 'benching', you must bench. If you're interest is condition and shape, there are better paths.

Makes little sense. If mfp isn't taking k to consideration my activity, then WHY ask if I'm sedentary, or walk, or work out, .... That's already figured in , unless I input 'lard butt' for activity, then go work out contrary to usual. If I already said I'm active, why would I 'eat back'? Why would it "give" me more…

Well, then apparently its "possible", even if not ideal.

Now, where do I see all the fancy HIGH PROTEIN recipes? Not a problem yet, but I want to keep some variety in the diet mix.

That thing says that at roughly 175 cm and 97kg I'm "overweight". Makes sense, I know I can drop some weight, or I wouldnt be here. But 45lbs? Probably not. What do you suppose is the effect of osteoporosis? Woman same size weighs.less, right? I'm not persuaded that."muscle is heavier than fat", but it DOES affect bone…

It will not re commend less than 1500, which is.where the.number. omes from. But it WILL let me close the diary on anything over 1200

Sure why not? I'm cute now, but i USED TO BE INCREDIBLE 😉

Now HOW to do that? I've seen posts by ppl talki g about that.but when o go to get ideas for recipies I cant see.em. FOUND IT.👍

Oh, yeah ... the warm up for the workout is 10 mins treadmill at 3.5 mph on setting 8 incline which I'm guessing is about 20 degrees incline. Treadmill says that about 80 calories burned, but whether accurate or not I haven't even figured that in. That's 4 days per week.

Note that I deliberately changed it.to 1350 per day as it calculated, bypassed the 1500 minimum just to make the point. Definitely keeping the.protein.up!

So, that menu - I just checked -- looks like this. Now I'm hearing about water weight and such, which contradicts the 'log and you lose' mentality prevalent here. But I'm not interested in debates .. It's a legit question- if I'm not doing it right, somebody point it out. Here's what I got for today. I'm going to bark down…

Breakfast was scrambled eggs, 1 whole egg and 5 egg whites. Add 1/2 jalepeno pepper and 2 tbsp hot sauce (10 calories). Black coffee x2. Just now back from the gym. Workout was 1 hour 15 min, which is 38 sets of 6 and a total of 20 x 45 second breaks (set of 6 deadlifts, followed immediately by set of 6 pullups followed by…

Thanks, that's what I've been doing. While I really DON'T think ipl lose 40+, I was surprised to see tha following g the recommendation PLUS working out pretty hard and very regular, after day 44 I've lost a total of 3 lbs ! I would have thought I'd drop 10 at least. It seems some here think that anybody who didnt lose by…

Congratulations. That's exactly what I've been saying.

Wait... you think that "mfp says I should.lose 2lb per week if I eat 1500 calories" is confusing?@!

So you've stopped blaming others for .. whatever ... and now want to be "within the healthy h/w ratio range" according to someone else?@! Hey, each his/her own. :/ But I dont think ANYBODY would see those pics of me and say 'that guy is outside the range we decided is acceptable and needs to drop 45 lbs" . I mean, NOBODY.…

The 'best' method is THE ONE YOU WILL USE. I like handball, but apparently I'm old and nobody does that any more ...

Read it again. Not even close to what I said. Clearly says that given my info, MFP SAYS I should lose 2 lbs per week IF I go with the RECOMMENDED (by mfp) 1500 calories daily. A little more reading, it actually calculates 2250, subtracts 1000 for the 2lb loss, resulting in 1250, which IT then bumps up to pump the myth…
