Bump

Bump-tastic.

How would Athiests explain the creation of the universe, planets, etc? I've always wondered. Ok.. there was space dust hanging out there somewhere billions of years ago... then somehow something happened and the conditions were just right and BOOM, it all came together in a perfect storm. But wait... who put the space dust…

I disagree my friend. You believe there is no higher power, I believe there is... we both believe something. Whether it's Bigfoot, Aliens, or God... we are both believing in something, thus that is where our faith lies.

More like......there is not enough evidence for a higher power. Therefore, the default position is to accept the Null Hypothesis until such time that there is enough evidence to change our minds on the subject. It's not that many atheists are not willing to accept that a higher power exists......it's just that we haven't…

Just wanted to drop some truth in the thread to my Athiest buddy's out there: Athiesm is still having FAITH that nothing higher exists. Just FYI. --- As for me... I ..."walk by faith, not by sight..." 2 Corinthians 5:7

Any other thoughts on the above are very welcomed...

Fat2fit says that I should eat 3396 cals per day for exercising 3-5 times per week. That just seems nuts! As I said above, how could I eat that many calories now when I was close to that before I started? Eating clean... How do you even eat that many calories while preparing low cal foods?? I know it's about quality too,…

Gotta be honest, I don't totally get the whole TDEE thing. Mine is somewhere around 3500. Am I supposed to really eat 3500 calories per day because that's what my TDEE is? That seems a little crazy... I was probably eating that many cals before I ever made this life change..

Thanks for the responses thus far. I do approximately 2-3 miles on the treadmill (jogging mainly) and lift 4 days a week, different muscle groups per day. I eat very clean. Whole grains, lean protien, lots of fruit and veggies. Not low carb, but take it easy on the bread and pasta. Hardly ever have dessert... etc.

And... I'm 30... 6'1...247lbs.

I might need to clarify. I was eating 1700 calories/day... after changing to 1 1/2 per week weight loss goal I will now be eating 1920 calories/day. My BMR is 2100ish. Thanks.

BOOTS TO *kitten*.

bump I think adding raisins would be delish...
