Unfortunately, it's near impossible for a woman to gain muscle while losing fat after the initial couple months of training... Closest thing would be recompesition... This is where you eat at maintenance. By doing this you won't move on the scale, but your BF% will lower. It's not quite as efficient as a cut/bulk phase,…

Any macro can be stored as fat, unfortunately. :P

Preach about health all you want, I'm doing this for aesthetic purposes. And I gained a portion due to an uncontrolled bulk as well as being newly 21 the past months. **** happens, ya know? I'm not new to the nutrition scene, I'm not telling people to do what I'm doing, alright. I'm aware this is frowned upon, but it's…

I agree here, I fast pretty frequently. Usually for 3-4 days at a time. I love it, it makes you feel great! Just gotta get through that first couple days. ;)

With all due respect, fats digest the slowest. But protein is definitely much better for satiety.

^THIS^ And though I know it doesn't feel right, even if you ate all your cals in one meal, it wouldn't hurt you. It's the same as eating them throughout the day. Only difference is you'll probably feel bloated and kinda ****ty, because from a mental standpoint... It LOOKS like you pigged out, even though it's all in…

Your metabolism won't be effected. This fasting for Ramadon is very similar to IF, a program created by Leangains. You fast most the day and then eat around dinner. You'll just be eating a bit later. Even during an absolute fast, or very low cal diet, your metabolism will only slow by like 5%. People get too worked up…

First off, you're gorgeous. Carrying fat in your face? I gotta call BS. lol That being said, I'd love to work with you. :) I wanna lose 30 at least. ;)

keep em coming guys, thank you! :happy:

Gotta lose 30 here, and I have past experience with weight loss so I can help! So, please, feel free to add. ;)

I'm a lil bigger, but wanna lose at least 30 pounds. Sounds like we are kinda in the same boat. feel free to add me good sir. ;)

Hey there Tiffany, I collect hot sauce. ;) It's a great natural thermogenic too, throw it on everything! lol, feel free... No, PLEASE add me. :)

I appreciate the concern, but I've done it before and this just happens to be what works for me. The lower in weight i get the closer to maintanence I'll move. But for now my body naturally sheds fat before lean body mass, my high protein diet and training schedule assure this. Being an endomorph, this is especially true.…

Bump! ;)

I got about 25 more to lose. I need to be sub 220 at least. :P my progress is in my pics! lol

I hear that! Way too much endurance and cardio in p90x for me... I'm a lifter all the way. :P

Let's do this! Feel free to add me. :)

Gotta give the lovely lady above a solid 9.8. ;) lol

25... And I like your... shirt? lol

Yes, I do agree with you here. But at the same time I believe it's beneficial to switch motions up as well. Hits the muscle fibers differently. For example, doing barbell bench one week and then switching to dumbbell bench will allow your muscles to build more efficiently. But to each their own, I'm not trying to force my…

That's a good goal, and it can be done! I'll root for ya! :)

Low cal diets don't really effect me negatively. I actually feel quite good on them. That, and I have something in a couple weeks that I wanna look good for. So I'm goin hard right now. lol, this isn't permanent by any means. After that I'll probably bump it up to 1000-1200 cals a day.

Sounds like a damn good day to me! I, like you, start out with a coffee and espresso shot, black. Then have a pre-workout protein shake. Same shake right after. Then for dinner I tend to stick with poultry of sorts, protein style. Hot sauce and cinnamon wherever I can. :) I do low/no carb.

My idea of a run is a mile jog... I am NOT a cardio man. lol, I'm all about the weights. ;)

24- Lovely smile. :)

This made me chuckle. Thank you good sir. :)

Works for me. lol

Hell, I was supposed to head that way for Rockapalooza tomorrow. :P

lol, tis a bit late... :P

We're already friends, silly. lol
