I'm at a loss as to why folks try to make it more complicated than it really is. I've weighed, measured, and counted for about three years now and have come to learn that ~2000 NET calories keeps me steady. When I want to bulk I net more than 2K, when it's time to lose I net less than 2K. I also track macros to ensure…

I'll vouch for the Bose - lots of running and zero issue with fit or slipping.

Anyone see "It Might Get Loud" featuring Page, The Edge, and Jack White? Great documentary and I respect all three, but it quickly becomes obvious that Page is in a different league. Also becomes obvious that White is a certified whacko.

Yeah...it's genuinely recognized that Page and Townshend are no-talent hacks... what the...

Do not give into that pressure...at all...ever

Shakeology. I believe they have an anti-black magic claim

I eat ice cream EVERY NIGHT. (Feel free to check diary.) It will not make you fat - unless the consumption of that ice cream causes a sustained caloric surplus. That said, I certainly see a place for low calorie ice cream substitutes for those struggling to stay within their intake goals and desiring a sweet treat. An…

Absolutely this!!! Use MFP as a planning, not just tracking, tool. Add in your wine, beer, 1/2 gallon of ice cream, etc. when planning your meals for the day. If it fits while maintaining your desired macro ratio and calorie count for loss or maintenance then your are good to go!

Have used one daily going on two years. There was a lot of pushback from the wife for a while after I reached my weight goal (about a year in), but now it is just accepted. EVERYTHING gets weighed or measured unless I'm consuming the entirety of what is on a packaging label (protein bar, lauging cow cheese wedge, 1/2…

Nope!

Thanks. I was using an incorrect window and was assuming I had a broken metabolism. I was preparing for a 30-day water fast to reboot my metabolism, but will put that on hold unless you think I should go ahead with it - or maybe switch to a coffee colonic.

I should only poop once a week? Also, if I eat 6 meals a day, which one is breakfast? If I call the wrong one "breakfast" would my metabilism still jumpstart?

I don't post much anymore, but I read your two threads and wanted to offer an endorsement on two of the posters. SideSteel and Sara will steer you straight and, if you are not already, you should check out their group (believe it is "eat, train, progress.") I believe I was in the same boat you are about three years ago.…

Easily one of the best episodes (and most have been great). Are they going to try and set the Governor up to be a sympathetic character or is he just getting motivated to rebuild an empire? I also like that we took a break from the prison gang in order to build some anticipation of Rick talking to Daryl about Carol's exile.

Fantastic! We just finished off some BB Christmas Cookie as well. They have another holiday flavor out called Fudge Divinity that I'll hit next...after the BB Red Velvet Cake is gone. (Currently in a bulking phase which means I HAVE to eat the ice cream.)

Carol's exile was unexpected. I think Rick underestimates her and her fierce loyalty to the core group. Daryl's reaction should be classic.

The only thing you should be drinking in Dodge is San Miguel in the painted bottles - or whisky from the Brits.

Hmmm...mutating zombie germs would be bad news. The Army medic is definitely a shady character, but I think too obvious a choice to be the saboteur.

OK...who is still on board and caught the season premier? **SPOILER** I pat myself on the back for calling Zach's death as soon as they introduced the character. Are we to assume a particular nasty strain of swine flu has infected the camp?

Wheat has made me stronger

Another option is to put in all the ingredients and put an estimated serving size for starters (i.e. 32 for the 2 lbs of meat). When done cooking weigh the meatloaf and set the serving size to the weight in ounces. That way your serving size will always equal the weight of your slice (i.e. four ounces equals four…

I've gone the opposite route and have ramped up the wheat consumption. Been working the bread machine quite a bit over the past month - cranking out some Challah, Honey Wheat, and (just last night) an epic pumpernickel. I'm in a bulk and can stand the extra calories, but I've noticed no ill effects or signs/symptoms of…

Great! Now I suppose I should start growing sugar beets in my closet with a UV light.

Awesome!

Blue Bell - The Great Divide Blue Bell - Moo-llennium Crunch

I start another bulk cycle in the fall - so definitely ready (timed to be in conjunction with the heavier seasonal brews - and more clothing worn)

Finally emptied our 1/2 gallon of Blue Bell Southern Blackberry Cobbler last night. Emptied the Blue Bell Rockslide Brownie the night before. I can't wait to see what the wife comes home with tonight.

I just picked up Fallout 3 GOTY for $5 on Steam summer sale. For no apparent reason I just stopped playing Skyrim pretty early in the game. I've played and finished every ES game since DF and I was making a go at Skyrim, but then went on vacation and haven't felt the urge to pick it back up. I also bought Witcher on Steam…

I'll vote for correcting them. They can take your recommendation (or not) and you have the clean conscience that you tried to help. My point of view comes from the fact that I started doing squats only last year (I'm almost 42). I watched video on youTube and read the description on bodybuilding.com, but that still didn't…

If sticking with MFP method I recommend eating back exercise calories. I have been at maintenance since April when I cut following a fall/winter bulk. Using various TDEE calculators I determined that I needed to net approximately 2010 daily to hold at 155. My average daily intake since reaching maintenance goal weight has…
