He doesn't specifically use those 2 words you picked but he does start off with the question "Is it possible to stay at the same weight..." with the rest of the post being the answer to that question. That my friend, is maintenance. I'd consider that keeping track but as far as measurements go I'd only look at the changes…

You could just...you know....pee... Yep, it makes you lose water. When doctors say the best way to be healthy is sweat I don't think they mean like that, I think they're implying exercise which is good for the body. If you ask me vinyl suits are bad. It makes you lose water weight only, water that would regularly be…

Before and after what...before happiness? lol. You look happy in the last pic! That's a good start. If we're talking about body wise to be brutally honest because I know many will coddle here...and since you're open to criticical I'm going to say in the nicest way, no. I don't see a difference.

I'll also add since people have brought it up that I've danced with many plus sized people, and yep, this works well they said. And I'll also recommend putting material on the inside and only keeping the perimeter of the ducktape bra sticky so you don't get stuck in the bandaid situation. This also gets rid of the 'bra…

Once again I didn't see anyone say you cannot gain muscle on a calorie deficit, but most people won't anyway. But yes, there are things you can do to preserve what you have. Not necessarily low carb (since there are studies that indicate maximum absorption for protein and if your fairly active it doesn't really matter what…

Devil man, you quoted me before I added to it so it doesn't look like I'm talking to someone else :p

Logic fail. If you can grow muscle on a calorie deficit and you're losing weight, that does not mean you increased volume. Example: the part most likely got smaller, not larger, since muscle is a lot denser then the fat that was lost. And just in case that isn't clear for some this is from another post: Say someone lost…

Me too, to much BBQ. Can't wait to have another today!

For those who are to lazy to click and don't know what muscletalk link is...it's a forum, like this one, where whoever anonoymous figure can reply, like here. I only took a glimce and all I saw was some guys talking about how they feel lol.

I didn't see anyone state that it is not possible for a person to gain muscle on a calorie deficit. The person above just said 'not to any significant degree'. As for making a body part larger...I had a rant about this the other day....but if your an obese male that was previously muscular before, then I have no idea. I…

summary: Most people can gain muscle and lose fat on a deficit by eat 40% protein, don't eat all your protein blob at the same time or your 'nuclear reactor' well go off so eat 5-6 globs of protein spaced out per day lol (um, many people IF here and show vast improvements in body composition and the whole 'many meals a…

Just to note a body shot front and side, flexing and not (4 pics) is the most valuable when it comes to estimating where you are.

and for those who missed it, my doing cardio every day self (same pic, one over processed so you can actually see my shape): and my 'bulky' lifting self at the same weight:

um no...bulk means large...large volume large size large mass...bulk. It doesn't mean smaller yet defined...and it never did no matter what context as far as I know.

pics?

lol! body pump is heavy lifting...http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rsm0A1RTu6k "high rep high intensity barbell based program...it's more repetitions with higher weight...800 reps in some routines" I wonder if they know that heavy lifting is lifting 85% your max weight for ~5 reps. And you lift what at bodypump? Gazillion…

Notice how that's about maintenance, and not calorie deficits (it starts by saying "is it possible to stay the same weight". And if you haven't been keeping track of measurements very well, how do you know specific muscles grew (which you noted before)

and then we figured out who the doms were

If you're talking about the nude sticky reusable silicone things that I have (not a fan): ...they come in different 'cups'. If you get the wrong one, it does warp your boobs. It also changes the shape of them since they are a bit padded so the padding goes wherever you put them so you can make your underboob heavier, or…

If you've ever been in a dance performance, that's what we do...and then we paint on some lips...just kidding, but we do use the ducktape trick. I suggest putting a material on inside like plasticwrap to avoid ripping a whole entire panel of ducktape off your tits (make a bra upsidedown in front of you, line everywhere…

When I try to figure out something about my body, I make sure it's from a site called dummies.

Pshhh you're doing it wrong: *girl picks up guy to bring back to batgirl cave* *guys testosterone thermometer goes up in fear of being outmanned and picks up batgirl instead* *batgirls heart flutters at the manlyness and suddenly plays weak with excitement, not to make him feel better, but to get her way* *batgirl gets…

damn that's pretty awesome. I feel shameful having posted mine compared to these LOL good work my friend!! I'd also like to point out- I'm pretty sure that that second picture you aren't meaty enough for 18% unless you are hiding it somewhere- that looks awfully lean for 18% ... looks closer to like 15/16 (bestie went with…

which part?

Step 1: Get a pullup bar Step 2: install Step 3: get Ducktape Step 4: Hang off pullup bar nakie Step 5: Tape bootom of boobs Step 6: your welcome. Signed, A dancer Or get a pretty bra with a fancy back. I'm not a fan of the 'sticky boobs'. They fall off when sweaty.

Wait....hyooge where?

All I have to say is if you're logging as 1200 calories don't forget to log activities that aren't in a sedentary lifestyle, particularly if you have to run around with kids, because they definitely do not take that into account.

In for harassing memes

Since we are given this info (man, woman, short, tall, fatty, muscley), we can apply knowledge to give information specific to them, without them having to feel like a special snowflake. If a part of you gains fat in a part: genes, they suck, mine likes to lye on my hips. To get rid of fat, eat at a deficit, and strength…
