Poster: I love you. These all look delicious! I was just thinking what I should buy for groceries after I get out of work and now I know. P.S. I prefer "Amamzing"

CaucasianAsians ... I probably don't update as much as the rest of you but I check it all of the time

My roommate and I tried Zumba, only one song. We were at it for 15 minutes before we had to stop, it gets really exhausting really fast. I think it's a good exercise routine. I'd prefer Kinect because it critiques you as you go and that makes things a lot more tricky (hard/intense)

I'm going into my senior year this year (finally). I don't have any amazing weight loss stories other than losing 30 lbs last summer and gaining it all back due to poor nutrition and excessive drinking. I'm not really knowledgeable on recipes or nutrition but I'm well versed in weight training and general exercise if you'd…

I'd like to know too, I was looking to drop a good piece of my weekly paycheck on one of these

Teach yourself that sodium is disgusting. So whenever I go above 2000mg of sodium I literally feel nasty so I just chug water to offset that amount of sodium that I've consumed. While you're at the restaurant, it's important to ENJOY the food. So I wouldn't be thinking "I NEED THIS CUP OF WATER NOW" .. Enjoy it while you…

That deficit promotes weight loss!

Oh my god is that a vintage elliptical machine?

I can't quite make out what that is... help me please

Try the Special K Cracker Sea Salt Chips, 30/serving and they taste pretty good!

I logged mine. Embarrassing, I know. Well it was an unintentional cheat day but you can look at my diary from yesterday and see how terrible I went. It gives me a good idea of what I'm putting into my body and how I should handle myself in the future. SO I'd say log it because everything is relevant when it comes to weight…

Wow this is awesome, I didn't know this existed! When I was in high school I suffered from severe acne (worst time ever) so I took medicine to treat it (Accutane) and 6 years later I just have these scars all over my face and I've been wondering what types of treatments there were to get rid of these scars. Thank you so…

(I'm assuming you're referring to a time before I gorged nasty food). Yeah, I didn't realize that the cereal bars were going to be so bad. I bought those because I couldn't get breakfast in before my workout which is right before i go to work so I got the cereal bars and whatnot to snack on throughout the day

This is going to sound REALLY stupid to other people but it works for me. I hear a lot of about "personal preference" on this website. I've been able to push myself far past any limits I thought I've had restricting me in the gym (I didn't know i could run consistently for 60 minutes). Here's are tips that I go with:…

Okay, I'm feeling pretty bad about my dinner today. Not going into details about it... Thank you all for the information about protein, I will take that to heart and consideration when eating in the future. My profile.. Well if you go to change your quote it will give you examples... "Mom on a mission" was one of those…

Alright so, my daily goal is 1500 today, with exercise that jumped up to 1900. So I should be aiming to consume around 1900 calories today (as MFP listed)?

I have to say that I've learned quite a bit from you today (a drastic change from yesterday evenings conversation). You've encouraged me to dispel other things that I thought to be true.. such as eating several smaller meals throughout the day. I found this article:…

Your goals are doable! I lost 30 pounds in 6 weeks last summer from good nutrition and consistent exercise. I'm trying to do what you are doing, except with more weight training than cardio. Today I ran for 62 minutes because the gym was so packed I couldn't get a workout in. make sure you eat a lot of the right things and…

I use RunKeeper (for Android and iOS). I couple RK with MFP for optimal results. RK tracks my exercises, mainly running; MFP tracks my calorie intake and overall nutrition. Give RK a try, they're getting bigger and it's fun if you have friends who use it as well! *Edit* The app itself and the website account are free. They…

Tyler McPeak, Sure, I'd definitely love to be where he is at right now. But one thing that inspires me about him is his willingness to help everybody he can and give advice to all. Even though he already has modeling contracts with Under Armour and is lined up for various acting gigs, he still keeps in touch with people…

If you have a smart phone, might I suggest an app? Look for RunKeeper on the Android and iPhone markets, me and my friends use it to track our runs through GPS and we end up making a competition out of it. I use it to track all of my runs and it will map out where you ran to and everything, pace, time, and distance…

Exercising, whether it be weight lifting or cardio or both (I prefer both), will greatly benefit you in reaching your end goals. Good nutrition alone will definitely take you far but if you would like to see a more drastic advancement in progress, I would include some sort of exercise to your daily/weekly routine! *Edit* I…

I'm not trying to flame, I just feel like you could've taken a different approach to telling everybody that the things they read are not correct (even if the sources are reputable).

You really are blunt and unappealingly straight forward. The person who offered up the advice is a professional body builder and has been labeled as highly reputable by many fitness professionals. I stand by what he has to say through his experiences as a body builder and personal trainer. From what I've seen in your posts…

As a follow-up to this (what I said earlier), I'm under the impression that the original poster is partaking in weight training. If not the case, and just for overall upping your protein intake then I will agree with some of the other posters in saying that you can take it whenever you would like to throughout the day.…

It's best to take the shakes after a workout. I would explain in my own words, but it won't be anywhere near as beneficial as this conversation (on a body building/fitness forum): http://www.muscleandstrength.com/forum/diet-nutrition/3676-protein-shake-before-after-work-out.html

I second this question, I was at work today looking for a good monitoring watch, I don't really know how many calories I'm burning at the gym (I only put in what the treadmill tells me)

I've really enjoyed the Special K Sea Salt Cracker Chips. 30 chips per serving and they aren't bad for you either. So When I feel the urge I'll have 4 or 5 chips and that usually stunts my hunger. Also, the past couple of day's I've been eating cans of tuna... I go with two, but after the first one I'm pretty full. I think…

You make me glad I joined this website.

I'm working on body building right now, I'm certainly not at the intermediate level but my knowledge isn't set at the beginner level either. A website that I HIGHLY recommend, as it's given me inspiration and guidance for getting in shape, is muscleandstrength.com The particular workout I'm on right now is…
