just because your on a diet doesn't mean you can't enjoy your food, i mean i still have my cheesecake for breakfast on most days, its a combination of the good and the bad to make you psychologically more adherent to your diet. If your having trouble with adherence because your bf is eating in a certain pattern i think you…

no goals in terms of calories for me, i set my goal in terms of weights lifted, sets and reps, thats the judge of muscle retention and/or gains. i believe thats the most important factor in a diet

Take it from me, you are making it more complicated for yourself then it really is, I have a heart rate monitor that tells you even more than just cals burned and effort, very fancy and all but no need for any of that. Do you know your VO2 max? Your heartrate at vt1 and vt2? My point is that its just an adjustment of…

Lol, sorry but some of the people on here shouldn't be using the 1200 cal diet, factoring their height, age, and activity level, most of the times I see their diary and their macros are all screwed up. IT is an individual process, but 1200 is not some magical number that is going to work for everyone. For your info, its…

I eat one of whatever i want to eat for each day of the week, but moderation in quantities, like I wont have a whole cheesecake(unless i feel that calories are in very big deficit), but I will have a slice or two depending on what kind of a day it is. My diet is structured around my training protocol, as they both go hand…

Hulk, lol im known as the Hulk on fitocracy :D

5'9 164lbs and 32

im not quite there yet, but you can see my profile pic, i basically want to keep my muscle and shred a little bit more fat as I think i have a very proportioned physique as it already!

all out dinner at olive garden for sure!

lol whoops

Message me with your email and Ill send you the spreadsheet, lol speaking of macros I just put in another section which helps you calculate macros based on what percentages you want. :) msg me if u still need it!

a piece of tiramisu cake, :) it is low cal for me when i compare it to the daily cals i intake. or 6 pieces of mini eclairs too on my rest days work the same.

+1 defense for your moms bf being in car :)

People always look for the "perfect" exercises to try, don't fall into that hole. If you want to burn more cals, then the obvious answer is to engage as many muscles in one movement as you can...in short compound movements do that. However, you should also be aware that compound movements are also very high contributors to…

single, 22 years old...some women think im a very single minded person because I powerlift for fun and training to compete this year, and most of my happy days involve me breaking a personal record. I guess they just don't see that it takes alot of dedication to push yourself as hard as you can to do what you love to do!…

Chris has some pretty good advice, should definitely take that into consideration.

ill be the first one to on this thread to have a crush on yoU lol!

Look at my logs...i eat a piece or 2 of tiramisu for breakfast lol or i just had 6 eclairs with my dinner tonight(which i have to say were somewhat bad due to 2g of transfat i just ingested). But your body can't tell the difference between sugar from soda or sugar from chocolate covered almonds. On a bigger scale though…

i train 7 days a week for powerlifting... back/legs/chest days = 40p/40c/20f arms and abs days = 40p/20c/40f i only have 2 big meals per day at max 3 big meals, check my diary. You should also know that when I say train, i train heavy, i mean: squat=385 deadlift=405 bench=180 and those aren't 1 rep max, so make sure you…

:) thanks guys, i still intend to get more shredded, cant wait to compare progress with these pics in the future :D

MY dinner = 1 pound of cottage cheese with a little bit of splenda on the top and salted pistachios :) it works great

hiren :)

Thanks again guys! im off to do some homework, but message me if you guys want general suggestions and stuff like that! :)

haha thanks :)

sure, just message me your stats, weight/height/age/activity level(including what your job is like and your average day is like), i can give you a ballpark figure of what your calorie intake should be, and then you can customize your macro ratios to get the results you like. I used to be around 22% when I started, I don't…

not a dumb questions, lol i didn't know what they were until i did the research. macros--macronutrients which classify fat, carbs, and protein since theyre the BIG 3 that your body run on micros---micronutrients which classify vitamins, minerals, amino acids and all the minor details key enzymes/nutrients that your body…

thanks! lol enrique iglesias huh idk who that is, but i take it someone who looks good? Actually changed macros and calorie intake, before I used to be on the whole 1200-1600 cal diet deal, thats why I get disappointed when I see people on it unless that is genuinely their ideal calorie intake. I have an excel sheet that I…

lol 1200 is not enough for my breakfast...i believe people are vey impatient and set the calorie deficit really high for themselves. There is a proper formula that determines it for you, I don't the MFP utilizes that because their settings are SUPER low. I had to modify mines manually, its a good thing I know these things,…

what are your stats? weight, height, age, and activity per week...also if you have done a bodyfat analysis, whats the bf%? i can calculate the calories your body requires daily. keep in mind its in the ballpark, its never 100% accurate, but its a good starting point, and then you can cater your macros depending on your…

lmao juicing in fitness industry=roids...
