  • I was thinking along the lines of ground beef or something similar. I really don't know if chicken would do that. Good research project
  • I always weigh before. That is how meat companies do it. A 1/3lb hamburger is the weight before it is cooked, so the nutrition lable is before it is cooked. If you eat 1/3 lb burger that was 1/3 lb after it was cooked you are getting more calories then the rest of the industry that weighs it before. Lets say something is…
  • Sometimes. I know I should but on some "rest" days I just do something less intense like going for a bike ride with my kids. In the past I have pushed too hard and really hurt my progress (along with my body)
  • It is hard to dig through the data, but some data suggests that the diet drinks trigger your body to want real sweets and cause over eating. It is better for you to dump the soda, plenty of research linkes artificial sweetners and cancer (in huge amounts, but why take the chance) Try to dump the soda and I think you'll…
  • Congratulations and keep up the good work
  • Those are small focal seizures, could be nothing or a symptom of something more serious. If they hamper movement or any change in level of consciousness call 911. Otherwise it is worth it to give your doctor a call. From time to time I get something like that, very short lived, (few seconds) a doctor told me they are from…
  • Sorry to sound mean but being fat is absolutly NOT a disability. It is a choice, you may have medical issues that make it hard to drop weight but a package of cupcakes and a chocolate milk isn't a breakfast sutable for anyone. When you sit down to a quarter pounder with cheese, small french fries, and a small Sprite (850…

  • That is amazing, you should be VERY proud of yourself
  • 1st congratulations on begining this site. You will succeed if you stick with it. Ideally, you should eat the right , healthy, foods and you wouldn't need any suppliments. With that being said I drink the occassional shake (ON Pro Complex, high protein, low calories). I will use them post workout or as a snack. You won't…
  • First thing in the morning, most of the time around 5 AM
  • Wow, you look great
  • I use a fuel belt, don't like the camel back while running. Most of the time I pre hydrate and don't carry anything
  • With a little practice you'll get the hang of it. Crack the shell and break it into 2 half then gently move the yolk from one two the other. Every morning I make an omelet with 1 whole egg and 2 whites. It gives me a full meal without all the calories or cholesterol. Also with practice you get good at flipping an omelet.…
  • If you are going for that body builder physique you really need to seek the advise of a good trainer / nutritionist. Go to a real gym and find one, otherwise all of your gains will be lost during the cutting phase and you will put on too much fat during the bulking phase. It is tricky, you body needs the micro and macro…
  • Good work. You are doing great
  • Out of necessity I had to change some things that I ate because they were just too high calorie. But I still have Pizza, eat out when I have to. I prefer to eat healthier foods because of their calorie for fullness ratio. I make an effort to make my food whenever possible, simply because of the calorie content.

  • Keep an eye on it, Remember that the numbers suggested on this web site are just that suggestions. You may be off by a few that would lead to a weight gain over time. Also your sodium of carbs may have increased enough to cause a significant gain in water weight. As an example on Father's day I was over by about 700…
  • Love a good set of Abs, Love the "bridge" Healthy, fit women are great, muscle is sexy.
  • Try ON Pro Complex. It by far tastes the best. Are you using it as a post workout supplement or meal replacement. For me I make a shake / smoothie out of it using just plain water, ice and the powder. It is a nice treat. Warmer I would agree it isn't the same as a fruit smoothie or chocolate drink.
  • Right on the money, make sure you have witnesses to telling him you feel uncomfortable. While there are laws against harassment some cultures are hard to change and it could get uncomfortable for you. hang in there and do what is right. Documentation is the key, it may take a little bit but he will stop or not work near…
  • Sorry you have someone who is so unsupportive. He is very immature to think that it is funny to see you fail. It is up to you to resist, It is hard but you can eat OK at most fast food places, avoid the fries and soda and most menu items won't break you. You have the power to tell him NO. Make a scene if you have to to get…
  • I've fallen off the wagon badly twice in the last few years. Never got to my original weight, but I got close. and I always wonder what if. Get back at it, you are worth it. Anyone can be overweight, it requires no effort, no dedication. But only you can be the person who you want to be, no one can do it for you. You have…
  • Tuna is perfectly safe, most of it is farm raised. and the amounts they are talking about are so under any standard of hazardous to humans that you are taking a bigger risk of radiation exposure living in a brick home or flying. Every American is exposed to around 300 mr of radiation annually. Just because they can detect…
  • No one should be obese, these people are fooling themselves into believing the size they are is OK. It isn't healthy. Coming from a person who's weight goes up and down (100% my fault) I know for a fact that I'm not as healthy when overweight. There are psychological issues involved with being overweight and they should be…
  • My guess it is water weight from going out. Make sure the weight is taken the same time of the day. You said you go for less time when you run, why? Run then walk to finish off the time. I recently started again on this site and like the last 2 times I lost a decent amount of weight it is falling off a pound a day, I can't…
  • It is a violation of our freedoms. It will NOT stop people from being fat. I know plenty of people who order 1 large Coke a day, if they weren't allowed to get a 36oz drink they would buy multiple small drinks. It will do nothing. Cigarette prices are jumping by leaps and bounds and that hasn't stopped people from smoking.…
