  • I was lifting three days a week usually and doing some light cardio activity on 2 or 3 of my off days. I'm currently on my week off.

  • A lot of people don't get enough protein in their diets. For instance, I don't eat much meat because I hate preparing it for myself. I'm not a soy person, and I rarely cook beans. So, I struggle to get in my 100 g a day I'm shooting for.

  • 12 cups is a lot of coffee. I would consider the effects it has on your heart health or your teeth and cut back a little bit. in terms of weight loss, you're probably fine though. I'm trying to cut back on diet coke because all the aspartame makes me nervous -- I try to use splenda, which is more natural, when I sweeten…

  • I have the exact same problem. Within an hour of eating I'm tired and lethargic or sleepy. I eat healthy foods and balanced meals like 90% of the time. I drink a lot of coffee or diet soda to combat the exhaustion!

  • I usually drink a protein shake. If I don't have/want that, I drink some chocolate milk -- a great recovery drink after a hard workout. Anything with a good mix of carbs and protein!

  • You're probably going to continue to be annoyed and frustrated by it if you ignore it. I would ask him politely not to comment about food -- maybe say that for one week you don't want to say anything about food and see how it goes. you can also show him your food diary and explain to him how it works. if he gives you…

  • it's important to NEVER go below 1200 calories. I stick to 1200 on days I don't work out, but if I burn say, 300 calories working out I will eat 1500 that day.
