whey is encouraged post workout due to its digestibility. It is quickly digested and absorbed into the bloodstream where as some other protein supplements are much slower to digest and be absorbed. I don't have any links, but I remember reading that thee is a measurable increase in amino acids in the bloodstream within 20…

things that would be considered a felony in 20 of the 50 states.....

keep up the good work! Personally, I'm struggling to find the balance....I go low at night off 14 units of Levimir and find myself going 350+ during the daytime. I am consideriing asking for a meal time insulin as well.

To be fair now, that's a tad patronising. [/quote] not trying to be patronising....just recognizing that people will continue to do as the wish. I feel I've made my point about accuracy in what we're saying....and I do understand the desire to use shortcuts. However, I also recognize that it leads to confusion. Hope you…

ehh....hand shake?

all these examples are using comparable measurements....wherease the one that started this is not using comparable measurments.....volume and weight are two different measurements with two different meanings. suit yourself as to your choice of miscommunications....if it floats your boat, keep doing it. Do recognize you may…

party pooper. :wink:

sure...but then again, how many threads are in this forum where people are asking about how to do this or that because they misunderstand the "colloquiallism"? It's very easy for some to get confused, and you should recognize that a) accurate wording to convery the meaning is important and b) reducing misunderstandings is…

you do realise that much miscommunication occurs when you make assumptions as to what others will assume?

As I stated earlier in the thread, I'm an accountant. I have worked on putting together documents that require precise wording, as people make decisions based on what's in those documents (think 8K's, 10K's, 10Q's, etc). Correct wording is important to me and many people like me.

no...words have meaning....it's best to use the correct words to convery what one is saying.

Sorry, I'm an accountant, which means I'm anal about things. Weight and density are two different things, and trying to equate them is inaccurate at best.

technically, what you are saying is that muscle is denser than fat. 1 lbs of each weighs 1lbs. however, 1 lbs of muscle takes up less space than 1 lbs or fat.

I blame Biggest Loser for making people think they should consistently be losing 5-10 lbs each week.

this journey is about improvement, not perfection. just pick up the pieces, learn from it, and move forward again.

Can't really agree with that statement. Depending on one's goals, especially if it involves any kind of competition, training in all zones is important. I'm a cyclist....the LSD rides are done in Zones 1 and 2 (these would be primarily what the OP is referring to as fat buring zones). These are done to develop an aerobic…

by doing very low intensity exercise you burn more fat as a %. However, if you ramp up the intensity, you burn more fat in total. low intesnity might mean a 30 minute walk at 2.5 mph. You might burn 150 calories doing this with 70% of those from fat. Thus you burn 105 calories from fatty acids. However, do 30 minutes of a…

I have the book, but haven't tried following it yet. I just started doing X-Factor ST, which is an 8 week program, but since I don't have time in my schedule to do it the way they have it sheduled, it's going to be a 16 week program. I was thinking I'd try Making the Cut after I finish this X-Factor ST program. Have you…

great job! Keep it up!

Not too sure about the other 4, but don't eat the neighbors! The food police frown on that.

Meh....plus or minus 5% I'm good. Not even worried about trying to backout fiber since its not digestible.

I'm not gonna complain about the 20 somethings, or the 30 somethings. I like having nice things to look at while I rot away at the office.

How can it detoxify? Epson salts are a great source of ionic magnesium once it dissolves. Some of the Magnesium is then absorbed through the skin, about 10% if I recall correctly. Magnesium is one mineal many people are deficient in, so this can be beneficial. Baking soda dissociates into sodium and carbonate…

yes, it is. That's why there's doctors involved. blood tests, pregnancy tests, online certifications, etc.

correct....my daughter is just finishing up a 6 month treatment of accutane. It's the only thing that has worked.

have you seen a dermatologist? There's different kinds of acne, and depending on what type, it may or may not respond to dietary changes.

just do an extra 30 minutes on the treadmill, delimma solved.
