There's always one wizard in the room that defies thermodynamics (and doesn't RTFA).

It's hard to say. One way to guesstimate calories is to take your percieved intensity level on a scale of 1 to 10 and multiply by minutes. So for example, if your bike ride is on average a "7", and it lasts 30 minutes, I would use 210 calories (7 * 30). Obviously this is just a rule of thumb, not a solid scientific…

Focus on getting sufficient protein & fat. Sugar (and carbs) will fall into place. You can stand to raise your protein, significantly. But honestly this is unlikely to be the issue. As long as you're in calorie deficit (but not extremely so) you should be losing weight. Could it be possibe that your exercise calories are…

What seems to be the problem?

Bump for the western hemisphere

Sure, no worries there. It's synthetic trans fats you should avoid. It is perhaps the one single food item that should actually be avoided.

so which one was it for you? the farting or the pain/bloating?

Keep on a good regime consistently and the results will follow. One way to identify a good regimen is ask yourself, "can i do this forever and do i feel happy?". The answer has to be yes. If the answer is no, stop doing that and find a good regimen and do it consistently.

If you currently eat carbs and aren't constantly farting all day or in a state of pain or bloating then you can continue to eat carbs. Congratulations.

You had me at the topic title. Nice stuff. And don't think for a moment that you have to cut these things out completely. You could even, say, have one of these from the list once a week. Or incorporate them every day. Proper planning will make it all possible.

Something like 5, but if I move the scroll bar then 55. But I can't really tell. My vision is starting to go. I did work out though. I did work out. Or at least I'm going to. Well, I intend to. Not sure if I really will. But I WANT to. I want to say that I worked out. So I might say that. Whether I did or not. We'll see.

and then what about those guys who were fat before with a hairy chest and then when they get buff *poof* no hair on chest it's like omgwtfbbq! edit: sorry i originally used a punctuation mark in my run-on sentence so i had to go back and remove it.

The same as non-exercise calories: food.

Yes, success depends solely on what friends you have on MyFitnessPal. If you make friends with one of those 6-pack abs guys, you will loose weight for sure.

Why mess around with rolls when there's sashimi to be had?

please, don't ruin your "cheat meal".

Ok first of all, smoking, asthma, and exercise is a very bad combination. I suggest you cease all exercise immediatley. You don't want to give yourself an asthma attack. if you feel that you need to stay active, consider rolling your own cigarettes instead of buying the mainstream pre-rolled stuff.

Pop tarts rule! I especially like them toasted. They're just not the same "raw".

Yes. Plain and simple - success requires planning, and scheduling is a form of planning.

For a no-cal recipe, give all the peaches to me. I'll take care of them for you, and those pesky calories won't be bothering you.
