carbohydrates get you strong as hell.. that should say something

potatoes, bananas, oats

someone has to know this answer -.- or is there somewhere where I can get one from MFP staff?

ive done both.. low fat works better for me

.. and that article recommends that you don't eat saturated fats? that's ridiculous.

... except ur talking about a 5% fluctuation on each and ur talking to a female so u need to take bodyweight into consideration as well... and there are no such thing as 'healthy ranges' eating too many carbs proteins or fats wont kill you.. its over or under consumption

when that happens to me I drink booze

track your food for a week on MFP eating what you normally would just to see where your at, then set macros to generic recomp numbers like 40% Carb 40% Pro 20% fat and lower calories by 250 and if you lose weight keep it there and if you don't then drop it by another hundred.. these are very loose guidelines

this is all evidence on how many people diet wrong... have small caloric deficits and you wont binge, how is this gone for more than one page? its unhealthy behavior being praised. c'mon people.

MODERATION

general guidelines for someone to preserve muscle and lose fat. ( I mean very general) 10% caloric deficit .8g protein per lb of bodyweight .25-.3g fat per lb of bodyweight rest of calories with carbohydrates when weight loss stalls drop calories by another 10% or raise cardio don't forget to eat enough fiber and…

many people believe that you do relatively lower reps to gain muscle and relatively higher reps when you are getting leaner and losing fat in order to be more toned.. its actually more of the opposite. the body sees muscle as a burden so you have to give it a reason to stick around while in a caloric deficit and that means…

allergic to fruits and vegetables?? you mean u have some sort of anxiety issue with them right? don't think the human body would reject some blueberries and break out in rashes or throat closing up.

grapes are very limited in micronutrient value (like watermelon) compared to other fruits..yea sure there are antioxidants and some fiber as well, but there are also different types of grapes.. my parents house has a grape vine (wine grapes) in their back yard and I am more inclined to believe that those particular grapes…

if you do it right, ul start to see results immediately if you have never done HIIT before.

when im cutting or trying to lose weight I don't eat any.. its mainly because its my favorite food and I could dominate a jar, too hard to eat in moderation for me, especially since serving size is so small.

the answer could be either really simple or really complicated.

toes are ALWAYS out.. lots of squat variants and none have two feet pointed forward mess up ur knees

yea and I count walking to the refrigerator too...

advice: have a longer timeframe for your goal. if goal was to lose 20lbs you should have started your diet earlier.. my current goal is to lose 20lbs in 20 weeks given im already relatively lean but you need to re-assess whats realistic and what isn't. I could lose 10lbs of weight in a week if I needed to but it mostly…

I have a physical job too, and calculating calories burned is never going to work because that number fluctuates greatly depending on a lot of factors.. sadly the only way I could tell when im in a deficit or a surplus when im at work is my energy level.. if im feeling lethargic and having less energy while at work then…

don't worry about sodium that much.. only really a factor if you are really over weight or out of shape then u could have blood pressure issues or whatever.. the weight u gain is probably from body fat or you ate more carbohydrates and its intracellular muscular water (glycogen)... there is a chance u are sensitive to…

if you aren't on cloud 9 for the first few months dating and things are up and down... AND u find pics n stuff, it should be obvious

HIIT can yield similar results that weight training does because they are both high intensity.. so on a cellular level there is a difference between HIIT and steady state cardio, and with muscle fibers used fast and slow twitch.

I do cardio while I bulk.. but then I eat to make it up. I feel like I have an easier time gaining weight than losing it so I try to limit the weight I gain when I am trying to add muscle. If you have a harder time getting stronger and bigger then do little if any cardio, but I feel like if I am better cardiovascular…

if ur getting stronger and still losing weight don't worry about anything.. results come slowly

^^^ yea look more at the week as a whole

yea 6% would look insanely shredded.. im about 12-14% in my profile pic

mix it with tuna, sriracha, salsa mayo whatever and make a tuna salad out of it.. that's what I do.

in reality the slower you lose the body fat, the more sustained it will be and ultimately the more you will lose.. depends on goals and how quick you want results.. if you physically feel fine and you don't feel like you are starving yourself then I would say you are okay... but if you want best results slower the better…
