I like sugar. The more the better. :) Is there something wrong with sugar that I am unaware of? As long as we're dieting and not being sedentary and not having some medical reason not to, you don't need to worry about sugar intake assuming nutrient sufficiency is obtained from your diet.

How would this work for a person following a 1200 cal diet and a 2400 calorie diet? Completely different. Hit your protein and fat target. Fill the rest of your macros with carbs or a combination of carbs/fats/protein.

And to add to that even further, you really shouldn't be concerned about GI at all if you're healthy, exercising, and eating at a caloric deficit. http://www.livestrong.com/article/435162-a-closer-look-at-the-glycemic-index http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/532251-let-s-talk-about-the-gi-index In short, eat which one…

INTP What?

Dang, I thought this was something else.. Moving along... LOL

Try 170. Once you get close, you'll be able to tell what is going to work for you. Adjust up or down as desired.

Yes.. Vascularity is a function of 3 things. Muscle size, body fat levels, and subcutaneous water. (and perhaps temperature). It's normal to have both more muscle and/or fat on one side of the body. And to answer your question. No, natural vascularity on a very fit woman is attractive to a man who also takes care of…

If you can do more than 12-15 reps, you're not using enough weight.

He needs to see someone about an ED.

Micronutrients? Most meats have nutrients in them besides protein.

Yes, you feel this way until you're really, really thin. It's completely natural.

Do diet drinks contain calories? If the answer is NO, then that is your answer.

I don't have many pics of before because I was scared to be in pictures. But I used to weigh over 330 lbs at 6'1"

LOL, let me guess. She's not that great looking? Probably cute and slightly above average, but values herself more than others' do.

Large sweet potato's are NOT 150 calories. Not sure where you heard that, but it's not even close. Some large sweet potatoes are far larger than 300g mind you http://www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=300g+sweet+potato

Every single day. But only one time per day, and directly after I wake up and use the restroom. Those people weighing multiple times per day are a bit mental, LOL. I have over 600 days of daily weights logged in a spreadsheet.

At least an 11. Maybe 12.. Oh, wait, what?

Are you diabetic? Do you have some medical condition that should limit your sugar intake? If the answer is no to the above questions, then don't worry about it. Worry about staying under your calorie goal, and achieving nutrient sufficiency (both macro and micro).

You should be losing weight eating that many calories. Do you ever binge, cheat, etc? An entire week's of deficit can be erased in one meal when your deficit is moderate.

The only answer is you're simply eating too many calories. Whether by accident miscalculation or overestimation of requirements or underestimation of intake. If you haven't lost wieght in 3-4 months, you've eaten at maintenance over that span. It is possible that you've made some nominal improvements in your body's…

On the contrary, going over your protein intake is a good thing. Science concludes that protein requirements go up when dieting, not down. And to top it off, protein is satiating as well. It's a win win.

That was hard to read, but to offer you some advice. Don't worry about food schedule. Meal timing and frequency is not a detriment to weight loss. Control your daily calories Eat when you want to Profit.

If you haven't lost weight in a month, then you're eating too much food/calories.

LOL... ^^^

You absolutely can lose weight while eating carb dense food as long as your overall calorie intake is less than your needs.

Because you body is remarkable at using stored energy to fuel itself when you haven't eaten. You think the human species has survived for hundreds of thousands of years getting up eating a bowl of frosted flakes for breakfast?

Sounds like you've been watching too many breakfast food commercials.

Is this something you came up with yourself? If so, ditch it. If you're into lifting heavy and want to build up real strength, do strong-lifts or starting strength for 3-6 months.

Fasting does NOT lead to fat gain. Eating too many calories does. With that being said, simply control your calories when you break your fast instead eating like a bottomless pit. Also, your metabolism is not slower at night. Calories in/out over the span of a day.
