thanks guys! re: your questions - i did whatever my trainer told me to do. it included a lot of compound lifts (squats, deadlifts, etc) and some filler isolations. i'll say that "what i did" was hire a professional to help me. too many of us try lifting on our own and it's just too confusing since we don't necessarily have…

this is a joke right i'm not arguing this your body requires carbs, and it requires ~30-50% of your intake to be from carbs, according to the grand majority of doctors and nutritionists.

+you need carbs

if you're eating real food, those proteins and essential fats are coming with a hell of a lot more than just their own caloric value.

WOW

is there a snooze button

pretty ridiculous and cute that you're still arguing something that was waived as a typo long ago. anything else? please re-read my post and see where i said "likely not enough nutrients". most people are not careful enough to get 85g protein in at 1200 calories without sacrificing something else. OP herself said she eats…

you can say whatever you want and be as otherwise as you like, but that's not going to change the facts i posted. there are some who say you don't necessarily need as much protein as i suggested, but aside from that SUGGESTION, everything else was fact. high school biology. not enough intake = likely not enough nutrients…

yes, because making a typing error while exhausted at midnight after a 6 day week and a workout = dumbass. there is a pretty stark difference between a tired mistake and an ignorant, illogical, unintelligent stance on a subject.

literally just said it was a typo bye

HAHA typo! good catch body weight it's late i'll edit for future readers

that's what my trainer/nutritionist told me, and i have only seen a+ results since.

embrace them

this is the funniest thread i've ever read. let me break it down quickly and simply for you: if your caloric intake is too low, you cannot give your body enough nutrients - most importantly protein. proteins (amino acids) are the building blocks of your muscles. your muscles play a large part in your body's BMR (basal…

here are some of the meals i had recently. everything is homemade, vegan, and gluten-free. quick oats cooked in almond milk, cultured almond yogurt, hemp hearts, and banana: two open-face black bean burgers on toast with mango chutney, terra stix, and mustard: toast with peanut butter and date syrup, mango, and a double…

vegan gluten free banana blueberry quinoa muffins they have flax, hemp, and sunflower seeds so delish and so healthy

4 tbsp chocolate hemp protein, 2 tbsp flax, 1.5 cups strawberries, 1 cup almond milk, a little bit of splenda.

omg that SUCKS i've heard of celiacs having terrible reactions to oats and sorghum flour :( you could probably try replacing the oat bran with ground almond and the oats with more shredded coconut and some chopped walnuts!

J Lo

Yes, this.

I never said I'd personally say anything, nor did I say it would offend me to the degree it offended the coworker in the OP. But this is the internet and an opinion thread, so I am sharing my opinion on the GUY WHO SAID IT. What I said was that people who go out of their way to hurt others are bad people. I didn't say I…

Okay, I don't think either of you are understanding the implications of his comment at all. When men reduce their relationships with the women in their lives to the size of their pants, they are also dehumanizing us and belittling our contributions. A woman is not a THING that comes in the shape or size you prefer, and she…

Why is this whierd creep defending the jerk described in the OP? There is NO excuse for going around with the intention of hurting others - doing that makes you a bad person, cut and dry. If you subscribe to the same ideals as that insensitive imbecile, you're a bad person, too, and it will come back to haunt you. Enjoy.

individual!

The Gangnam Style guy, but only because of the sunglasses in one of your pictures.

blonde bombshell!

Took me about 2 years! I did go to the gym - invested in a trainer to give me lifting routines, was diligent with my cardio, etc.

Amazing work! Good for you :)

Yes and no. There is a massive amount of evidence to suggest that many people, while not victim to full-blown celiac, are gluten INTOLERANT. Gluten intolerance is often undetectable until the slow harm to the digestive tract results in seemingly unrelated health issues. Because so many people are likely to be gluten…

Thanks!
