I just have protein and creatine before. Those pre-workouts aren't for me.the one I tried (razer 8) just felt like an energy drink to me. I hate energy drinks...I'm very sensitive to caffeine.

This is very true. I was able to go a few months on 1800 cals. And I felt the same way after a few months. I upped to 2100 and the weight isn't coming off as quickly but my strength is back and I'm lifting heavier than ever and dropping bf% faster. I'm even considering moving to maintain sooner than expected. Because I…

It's very true. Scales are for just about everything though. Take working for example: it's basically how much crap your willing to put up with for how much money right? The crazy-hot is a tough one to judge, because often times you don't know about the crazy as quickly as you notice the hot lol

I honestly can't think of a way to spend a large amount of money on a date and not look like a creeper haha. First date limo? That's a little weird. Trip to a place? Even stranger. First dates in my opinion should be 50 bucks. Dinner at a place that isn't too romantic and pressure packed (like and Applebee's or chilis)…

Count me in!!! Name: Brad Age: 25 Hight: 6' 1" Current weight: 193 Goal weight: 180

3 things? That's not too picky in my opinion.

I love them too!!! Sour cream and onion is my favorite!! (It was also my favorite flavor of regular chips back then too)

I'm not going to settle personally. I know people who have, and they do not have healthy relationships (some chest, others resent, etc.) so I may have to wait a while, but I can have fun while I do!!! Lol

I have to agree with the above poster. Why would you do chest and back on consecutive days? For me those are two of my biggest upper body days.

If you don't have "haters" your not working hard enough!!!! But seriously, a lot of people are like that. That's how I can tell friends from fake friends. Real ones will be ecstatic and share in your successes! Just like I do in theirs!!!! Fake friends will stop calling you as much and keep their distance. Some people…

I was like that last weekend :( I drank as many cal as possible (protein, orange juice, etc.) and just let it run its course. I was ok after 2-3 days, and back to full strangth by mid week

Losing weight will not help you get girls. I can speak from experience. You need some self confidence, which actually you can obtain from losing a few, so I hope you find that! Not just a shallow girl :) lol

I think that particular pig would fit my macros perfectly! How much is he?

Note to all people: if you think your significant other doesn't look at other members of the opposite sex than just you, sorry to break it to you....they do.

It will prompt you to reset in every 10 lbs or so. I recently went from lose 1 lb a week to lose .5 as getting closer and closer I add more and more, I want to be at maintain when I hit goal pretty much.

It's both, eating more things that are good for you and eating less junk :)

The only thing I've herd obese be used as negitive is in health aspects. Obesity carrys a greater risk for "insert random medical complication here" by that logic saying someone is a smoker is a put down ever if they smoke?

Saying someone is obese is NOT a bad thing to say. It is an observation about their appearance which shouldn't be mocked but if you say someone is : blonde, tall, short, bearded, etc and etc. that's perfectly fine, but the second you describe them as being obese you've crossed the line? Fat is a bad word to call someone,…

Eat all your cals! Mfp has built the defict in for you, no need to go lower.

I've gotten to the point where my belt won't even hold up the extra room anymore lol. I bough a few pairs of in between to get me through. 34's, my 38's can get out of my closet with my 36's!!!! Don't want them, don't want to be able to go back to them. Besides a few sentimental shirts my XLs are gone too. I am ok with…

I have come to terms with the fact I will have a good amount of when I'm done. Dispite only being 25. One thing that helps is that I personally know someone who had it bad, and it's been about 4 years now since she lost the weight and her skin is back to normal :) personally I am going to wait it out. The scar from the…

Unsolicited advice is #1 for me. I have a trainer, he taught me how to lift. You look like you just came from a party and drank most the keg, hmm...which guy do I want giving me advice?

I don't care what's in the mcrib it's amazing haha, thankfully they haven't been around for some time around my area haha

Rewarding yourself with food is a tricky thing....it's like a drug addict saying since they've been clean for a week they can shoot up just a little. Is it ok to have a cheat meal every once in a while? Of course!!! But try not to overdo it when you do. Or sneek in an extra workout. Don't get down on yourself. Just keep on…

I have a lot of pictures that I hated at the time because I thought that I just looked huge...now I enjoy looking back, not because I liked the way I looked, but because at that moment, in that picture, I was me. I still am, I look back at pictures of me with friends or family and I may not enjoy how I looked at that…

Best investment you'll ever make!!!!

If you recently stopped hitting the gym it could be that. Last time I was sick I was out about 4 days and lost 4 lbs.

I'm 7 lbs away from 100, (started a little before starting mfp) it has taken me about a year and 3 months. That's working out, 5-6 days a week, staying in my cals 95% of the time and cutting out drinking 100% (personal reasons, not weight loss related, but it did have a huge impact on the scale) I'd say I'll hit 100 even…

+1, I just jog for about 40-45 mind on my rest day. Unless it falls after legs day, then count me out for that lol

I've never done online dating (kinda creeps me out a bit lol) but I have had some interest from the opposite sex when I go out or meet new people. The thing is, it's never the ones I'm also interested in lol so until then I will just keep doing what I'm doing and hope that one of those times is mutual haha
