Beef jerky. High protein, low cal/fat. Mmmm jalapeno. So damn expensive, though!

I normally just look up "generic _______" and run off of that. Some places may already be in the system. Say you had an egg white omelette from Cora's. Most times if you look up "Cora's egg white omelette" it will appear. If not, just go off a general idea. I have no idea how many calories is in my gram's bread, so I just…

Yes - your low-calorie diet is affecting your true strength potential. I understand the frustration of having a belly, but at this point in time, you will have to pick one or the other. To get big, you have to eat big (to get strength, you need energy). I recommend you decide if you want to bulk all winter and get strong,…

How far is the gym? Why don't you walk/ride a bike/run? Do you want to lose fat or build muscle? Running outside is probably more beneficial than playing DDR.

Squats and squats and squats and squats. Barbell ATG (*kitten* to ground) squats. I have no cellulite left on my thighs or butt.

Depending on how much you weigh right now, and how much your eating, that's going to affect your lifting stats. When I was ~190lbs, I was squatting 195 and deadlifting around the same weight. Now that I am down by 20 more pounds, my lifts are significantly less. Invest in 45lb plates (at least two) and then couple it with…

this. you can't spot reduce. chances are the first place you gained weight, is going to be the last place you lost it.

You can't "spot reduce." No matter how many crunches or sit ups you do, your body will take body fat from wherever it needs to. Continue exercising, eat below maintenance, and it will happen. Eventually. Good luck.

closest thing would be a leg press.

Whenever you want. It doesn't matter when, it's all personal preference.

Cureently 175lbs at 5'6. Lifting stats are as follows: Deadlift: 1x5 @ 275lbs Squats: 1x5 @ 255lbs Bench: 1x5 @ 135lbs OHP: 1x5 @ 70lbs Pendlay row: 1x5@ 80lbs Cutting hard right now. Have been deloading my weight as I am having a hard time keeping up.

Do you have a gym membership or access to gym equipment? If you'd like to gain weight, you would need to eat ~ 500 calories above your maintenance. So if you're 50kg (110lbs) your maintenance calories should be 14/15 x BW. For bulking, add 500 calories. If you'd like to gain weight (muscle, not fat) try to avoid as much…

you can download "starting strength" off the internet. it's a good place to start.

Mmmmmmm. Fries supreme! Stop telling me to not enjoy these delicious foods. Obviously people know that it's bad for them. Let us die happy and ignorant!

I wear CT or just go in my bare feet. The heavy sole helps keep you planted when you feel like you're gonna roll forward (squats) or helps you keep that invisible d!ck tucked while deadlifting.

I can't see their daily caloric goals. What is "drastic" to you?

this is my boyfriend and he did stronglifts for about five months. .he was about 200lb when he started. hopefully your results will be leaner, but still gaining serious muscle. he's eating over 4000 calories a day. http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/835060-2-year-transformation-40lbs-gained-w-pic

You could also be gaining muscle which you'll see before losing the weight.

I used to drink a lot of pop, too. However, I've switched to coke zero, which I find tastes exactly like regular coke and doesn't have the weird "diet coke" taste. Also, carbonated water. Perrier has a good selection of flavours. I discovered that I just like the carbonation as opposed to the taste. And lastly, try Zevia.…

If you're trying to lose weight, why would you want to eat "burned calories" back? This will only prolong weight loss.

"All natural peanut butter" -- The calories in PB are NOT worth the protein (I see you're trying to lose a significant amount of weight - good for you!) I would not look to PB as a "main protein source." Here are some alternatives: -fish (tilapia, cod, haddock, salmon, tuna - one small clover leaf container can contain…

wat. i don't even. running/spinng =/= decent leg exercise. you should squat.

Tuna, lean chicken, turkey, extra lean ground beef, cheap whey protein (which you can buy at wal mart), greek yogourt (plain - no flavours) and cottage cheese.

wow wa weewa. way to go!

Chun-Li from Street Fighter. It's worth a Google.

looool.

It seems like she doesn't respect or support your healthy lifestyle endeavors. Maybe you should have a serious conversation with her, telling her how you feel. Otherwise, it will just continue. Or you can just buy your own food from now on and prepare your own meals. As for her? Tough.

"We’ve all heard that fat people are at increased risk for certain diseases (diabetes is the popular one to joke about), and then our moral panic has taken that association and run with it. People with pale skin are at increased risk for skin cancer, but skin cancer isn’t casually tossed into conversations about them"…
