  • OP: I actually agree with most of what you've written. On the bit about protein: I think people misquote the literature when they say 1-2 g/lb for muscle growth ... the general consensus among the studies seems to be 1-2 g per kilogram of LEAN body weight. So, for instance, I weigh 63 kg. I don't know my BF, but I'll…
    in I've stopped counting calories & weight is still dropping. Comment by vajrasattva February 2013
  • This! Poor guy's just saying that he finds the natural look attractive. I'm sure there are other guys who would prefer something else. If all these women arguing that this is "offensive" are really so secure and confident, then why do they feel angered by this? Got news: guys look at you while you're in the gym. Girls do…
    in What Men like in regards to Women's fitness Comment by vajrasattva February 2013
  • For me, it's eating whole, unprocessed foods, in addition to no grains or refined sugars. Although every now and then I have some rice with sushi or some air-popped popcorn. :) When my budget allows (and when it's in season here in cold, snowy MI) I also try to get my food from local, organic sources -- better for the…

  • Congratulations, you look fantastic! And strong and toned. Great work! What sorts of exercises did you do for your booty? I seem to lose fat there first and foremost, so I'd love some muscle to replace it, ha. Any suggestions?

And I get the Veggie on wheat flatbread, load it with veggies, a little honey mustard and good to go. It's really not that bad. Of course you could MAKE it bad - white bread,…
    in Why are people so obsessed with subway! Comment by vajrasattva March 2012
  • Words from the wise. =) I probably should talk to my doctor. Although in essence this program eliminates common irritants for 3 weeks, then gradually introduces them back into the diet, so I guess I'd definitely find out what does and doesn't work for me. Maybe there aren't "toxins" as are discussed by most of these fad…
    in "Clean Detox" and Calories Comment by vajrasattva March 2012
  • Hey! I just started a 3-week cleanse based on the book "Clean" by Dr. Alejandro Junger. I'm hoping to sort out some digestive issues that I've been struggling with, restore balance in my body and mind, and hopefully shed a few pounds. So I thought I'd look for a group that's oriented towards clean eating, and lo! I find…
