Nothing... I enjoy the hunger... I look forward to the feasting a night like my ancestors used to after a kill... Aint nothing wrong with being hungry, in fact once you get to a certain weight left, you have to feel hungry before you even start to see any results... I don't get hungry much, but when I do, I know the next…

I'm close, except I have a bad tendency 3 days a week to binge eat and massive binge drink... I do intermittent fasting and it really works... My weight loss doesn't "stall" but my weekends I pick up a fair amount back lol! I could skip the weekends, but you know.. you can't really enjoy a party without getting drunk..…

Actually that post proved he is completely wrong when it comes down to it.... Case in point. Christian Bale in the Machinist. He dropped to a crazy crazy low body fat percent and guess what? He had nothing, no abs whatsoever.... Find me ONE pic of him in the movie at a low low body fat percent with him having ABS, and I…

Riiiight because at 5ft I should be 200lbs or over? Am I going to be the next Mr Universe with that amount of muscle needed to get that weight? Where my steroids at yo... That about the only way for my height to actually even come close to that with abs showing...

Set a goal and goal for it... best advice.... Take each day as it comes, don't stress, if you need to eat junk, then set a "cheat" day to do so... Not saying eat everything you see kind of cheat day but like if you want burger king, or a pizza or to get drunk... things like that... Allowing every once a week or so makes it…

Goal Food Exercise = Net 1250 589 - 470 119 Well... I can say it is very manageable lol... Just depends how you go about it... Sure I could have made better choices, but a pizza and popcorn for supper? What could be wrong with that lol... Sure, galic/chilli pita more than pizza... but hey.. it's on a pizza base :D

Paleo for Athletes... Runners world suggests you read that book, including how runners world suggest a high carb diet isn't as beneficial as most thought and that a higher protein diet actually is better. I follow on it as I have run a few marathons, I am also running ultra distance races. I'm giving it a shot, and…

Well, they never were the enemy to begin with... People just eat too many carbs as they are so easily accessible... Try walk into a corner shop and see products wit high carb vs high fat/protein... You will find loads with higher carb, and hardly any with more protein or fat.... Also carbs are good, they also make you…
-
Gives me strength... I can eat 2000c and see a difference in a week right? I can eat approx 1000-1500c a day and see a difference daily... I don't really care, it is more a monitoring phase lol... I wanna tone up more than anything else so don't care, I know I will drop another 20 pounds likely, but that 20 pounds, is if I…
-
Not quoting on you to pick on you, but you said something that is stupid... No, while the occasional person will care, many who drink do not. Envious? Seriously? Get off your damn high horse... Why would I be envious? Will power? I've almost killed myself pushing myself to the limit in a cycling and running race that…

Still find these threads funny... Simple response, show medical proof. I don't care what you "think", the proof has been done and dusted. There are essential fats and essential proteins, there are however NO essential carbs and your body can produce glycogen through protein instead of carbohydrates. You will eat carbs,…
-
First off... are you doing this for weight loss only? Or for health? Because if for health reasons? Soy is the no go way! It is just so bad for you... Honestly :( if however only weight loss matters and not hormone levels and blood markers etc then sure, use soy... it is a good protein source, but thats about all it is…
-
Oh as for protein powder.. do NOT USE LIFEMATRIX! I swear it is like the creators made the foulest tasting vegan protein powder they could find =_=.... Not joking... Still have a jar in room lol... Also cardio is good, but the old saying of calories in vs calories out applies and HIIT works great... Umm I could give…
-
Yea two things... let me talk about both separately :) maybe 2 split into 3? Ok so first, 50g of protein is not a lot by any means... And a decrease in calorie intake means you want to at the least have a higher protein intake to preserve LBM... Aim for a min of 100g a day at least... That + fat intake higher, reduce carbs…
-
Umm because... Why not? I love it, you do not need to be fat to love it.. hell you can fit in alcohol everyday if want to be honest... most days I do.. I still lose weight... I get moaned at that I am becoming a bit too small... so what do I do? drink more... don't care and carry on shrinking... :) Your choice, but…
-
Funny... Then the whole intermittent fasting concept according to you is incorrect. Not able to build muscle? Look at author of lean gains and tell me you cannot when doing it correctly. There is no evidence at all that breakfast must be in the morning... Hell do yourself a favor and look at the word even... Break fast....…
-
No your not likely to gain it back if you do it correctly. By changing your dietary habits which causes the issue in the first place. Also even though doctors have little training, they do have far more training than most here and try see the medical implications of changing, whereas a fully qualified dietician does not…
-
Oh by the way, eating more protein and fats is better in the long run... not much your body actually needs carbs for... Essential fats check, essential amino acids from protein check, essential carbs.. err wait there isn't anything essential from them is there :/ it just is in most everything... Not essential though... Oh…
-
Monster Hunter and StarCraft are mine.... Umm yea... Oh and TES series... not newer ones mind you, they ok, but kinda suck with how closed they are :/ PS series :D And OFC Zelda :D
-
one main meal a day... If hungry I have snacks if not I don't... I use supplements as joint support by USN, CLA and Hydroxycut. My one main meal the only thing I focus on is nice food and quality. Sometimes like today that is absent, but heck that happens right? I can snack but as losing weight now, I try not to, if I get…
-
Thanks for the responses guys :) So would say eating between 4-10pm be fine then rest fast? Essentially 6hr window? Or should it be 8? And better after training to only eat? I train around 5pm or so everyday and twice week 7am as well as 5pm...
-
8.5, what an awesome smile :)
-
Honestly? Umm somewhere between 3-5liters a day... Sometimes more depending on training... Soda? Also around 2 litre a day... Coffee? About 1.5-2litre a day, green tea about 1litre a day.... Yep, that about my fluid intake..
-
Essentially, I have lost 60lbs already. I am finding it hard these last 15-20. I know how to maintain, the problem with me is that I am maintaining at 1590-2200 a day whilst training 5-7 days a week. I need to lose the extra whilst being able to train moderately at the current moment. My average calorie burn is 600c a…

Lose fat first... Easy as that... Hoever try to maintain muscle mass! That is soo important... too many push that to the wayside and lose the benefits the extra muscle gives. At first you can bulk up on a deficit because your a newbie. Once that stage passes, it is almost impossible to bulk up properly on a deficit, hence…
-
Hahaahaha Ok ok ok ... umm don't worry about it, seriously it is nothing at least from personal experience... What it generally is is different soap/detergent, socks, how the item was prepared etc..... If it is like the itching as you have on nose but inside the middle of leg... don't worry, it is irritating, but it goes…
-
Hah! I do... when I eat chilli, so it would make sense to avoid chilli right? Nope, no siree... I LOVE chilli, without chilli I would die, the hotter and stronger the better, the more chilli I eat the more I want, and it must be substantial... not like can't chew it... I NEED to chew the hell outta the chilli... like a…
-
Then my friend, you aint tasted lifematrix raw vegan protein powder... If any protein powder tastes worst, I'll have to take your word for it... Apparently using it as a smoothie or in oats helps with flavour... But then again it wouldn't be a shake then... But... Tastier for sure :/ I don't know, I'm still trying to make…
-
Me? Depends on how I am feeling... right now? Anything that consists of food is cheating at this point... Tomorrow it is anything with high carb count excluding alcohol. Umm anything not clean and healthy really... not including alcohol of course... so yea...

Advice is to in general no more than 10% distance increase each week. Whilst speed sessions are great and so are hill sessions, the bigger your aerobic base, the faster you will be... till a point. Good luck and have a great run in 6 weeks, I'm sure you can do it! Not that much farther :) Running is just like weight…
