  • It's not a magic pill but in certain cases they do help. They work for some and not for others. In my case they work and just fine but I don't take them daily. I rarely do take them when I know I get off my meal plans and it does happen (parties get together etc) First and foremost I plan my macros according to what my…
  • Going over your limit isn't bad once in a while. It helps your metabolism believe it or not. As long as you don't eat below your BMR and have a healthy decifit from your TDEE you're good. A couple of days will not undo months of healthy eating So it's good to fall off he wagon once in a while to treat yourselft.
  • You wouldn't mind if I look at your food diary would you? It's always good to see what those who have accomplished eat and so forth.
  • I guess my inclination was for the antioxidant effects of all the berry extracts in there. I've eaten unhealthy most of my life and would like a little more help undoing all the damage. It has some other ingredients that seem to be beneficial however I'm no expert. I replace a breakfast with a shake in the morning 4 times…
  • It's difficult but as far as feeling alert and having energy to get through my workouts and my day. I haven't changed my diet much but when I ran out of the multivitamin's I just didn't feel the same. I would get tired quicker and drag a little throughout my day. As soon as I got my shipment a couple weeks later into my 2…
  • WTG, now that's how it's done....
  • Don't get discouraged especially with the fitness portion. Many people when they make the change to a fitness lifestyle initially gain weight, it's not uncommon. They get discouraged because they don't understand what's happening inside the body. Initially the muscles will absorb water to begin the repairing process and…

  • Took me about 90 days to lose 30lbs. Doing P90X Classic and it has worked wonder for my overall conditioning. I went from couch potato with bad knees and bad back to jumping 4 ft in the air doing Plyometrics without any pain anywhere.

  • The body easily adapts to any stress whether it's exercise or food deprivation. I would change it up every 4 to 5 weeks. Change your workout days around or change exercises. Zig Zag your calorie intake. I would never create a deficit by eating less on the other hand the deficit should become greater from activity. The…

  • In addition I recommend upon waking to drink about 16 to 24oz of water before you eat. Hydrate first thing in the morning and this will help give the metabolism a hand. As far as the meals and the times the two other users are correct. But don't go too long without food after waking up. Remember your body needs the energy…
  • Oatmeal is not really processed like cereal bars. I would take a half cup of dry quick oats put water to cover it and then 1/4" more. Microwave it for 1 min, stir and microwave again for another min. It will be sticky and puffy when it's done. To this add 1/4 cup of fat free milk or a bit more some cinnamon powder and some…

Extreme cases I would recommend buying a small tub of casein protein powder and have 1 scoop with water or milk with your last meal or in any case 2 scoops with milk as your last meal. The…
  • Can you say dump... That is typical stereotyping. Runners usually have low body fat and little LBM. So I see where the assumption was made but talk about having a little bit of tact. Geezus... Dump the losers that do nothing but hold you down. Fast or slow it doesn't matter. It's the journey you are taking, cherish every…
