Yes it is true, after 30 min you have used up your energy stores and your body wantes to start burning muscle for energy. It is a fine line and occasionally is fine but it is recommended to break it up into two sessions for the day cardio AM , PM on non weight training days and just AM on weight training days then weights…

Thanks everyone, I will try more protein in the am and more in general, and yes I will try to eat more beef or bison.

Me too, but that is how my body works.

I would count it and go on with my day. Feel better

Me, I love my low carb lifestyle, and I don't care who argues with me about it. Most people don't educate themselves and they take what the government and doctors say to heart. Not me. So yes LOVE LOW CARB!!!!!,

This is the one I just finished http://videos.bodybuilding.com/show/your-12-week-daily-video-trainer And now I am doing this guys book body by design, I was a little lost at the gym yes I can use machines but free weight are so much harder and better in my opinion you just use more muscle and I am one for a schedule so…

I live a primal lifestyle and do weit training and cardio 3x a week at the gym. Other then that just good choices.

Yes I agree, but it is because people have to remember low carb is a lifestyle not a diet. I eat less the 100g of carbs a day but I also eat no grains, if anyone really wants to know the truth watch fat head documentary and research it.

Use the cane sugar if you must have sugar, it is natural not chemical.

Just watched fat head documentary, very good points in that movie I recommend it.

I scoop protein powder chocolate YUM, 3oz baby carrots and 1 cup radishes. YUMMY my favorites.

I do under 100g total carbs not net. It makes it easy for me because I don't eat grains of any kind. My problem is keeping the fat in check.

Make a banana smoothie, I scoop chocolate protein powder, banana, ice, water and if wanted a 1/2 tbs coconut oil. Yummy

You are female so unless you take steroids youo would be bulky. Heavy weights is where it is at, my motto lift heavy lift good.

Are you looking for a quick fix diet or lifestyle change? I personally don't care for Atkins but I am a primal eater( google marks daily apple) so low carb is a lifestyle because if you go back to eating carbs you will gain the weight back. So do what will work for you and your son, I have lost all my weight eating primal…

I did!!!!!! Although my calories are not extremely high but I don't watch or count my calories I count my macros protein/carbs/fat as long as I stay sighing those limits then I am ok, I also don't log my exercise because then it changes my numbers not everyone can do that and lose but it works for me. I do take days off…

I am a primal eater, with some dairy(Greek yogurt and a little cheese) it is so natural although I am not looking forward to Easter because candy still gets me once in a while.

You can look at mine, I am a primal eater.

Not always, I eat primal and we only count total carbs, primal blueprint is a great book and I recommend it to everyone, I have it on my kindle app. So it was less money

I use full carbs, just to keep it simple.

Me too,what a waste of money

I know what you mean, i was shopping this weekend for shoes and this over weight female was with her friend and looking at the sketchers shape ups and she tells her friend she is buying these because a co workerr of hers bought a pair and she lost 20lbs in a month only by useing these shoes. I thought to myself wow drop…

Yes it is called eating primal, I do not have PCOS but a lot of my primal friends do. Check out marksdailyapple.com

No I don't but I also don't eat my exercise calories either.

I am a primal eater, and no I am not on a diet it is my life style, so I eat lean meats, healthy fats, nuts and nut butters, vegtables and fruit in moderation, no grains at all, no corn( it is a grain not a veg) no peanuts( it is legume not a nut) I also do not eat tubers white, red, or sweet potatoes. Eating this way just…

Yes it is called over training and if you do your body likes to use you muscle for energy. Look over training on google or bodybuilder.com

It really depends how your own body works, mine I eat no grains or I bloat like a balloon and want to sit on the couch and do nothing. This is why I eat primal and weight loss is just a nice side effect. But not everyone is like me, so do what works for you and your body.

Ok this might seem silly but, you may have a gluten intolerance, I did that is why I eat primal ( no grains at all) I used to blow up like a balloon pants that fit really good in the morning where tight by afternoon, and the stomach bloating made me look pregnant. So I did some experimenting and that's what I found out, I…

I love Greek yogurt, I use the plain chobani and I add 1/2c frozen blueberries to it, because the blueberries are frozen it turns it into an ice cream kinda. I also love it with strawberries or pineapple( my fav) I don't think it has to many calories. I eat it everyday with breakfast I have 4oz Greek yogurt, 1/2 c frozen…

If you don't want to lose muscle eat protein 1g of protein per pound of lean body mass. To figure out your lean body mass take your weight x body fat% = how much fat you have then take that amount - your current weight so example 157 x .29= 45.53lbs of fat 157- 45.53= 111.57 lean body mass So with that 111 grams of protein
