Im in for an explanation too because I have no clue about this whole surplus, maintenance lingo LOL I just want to find out what I'm doing wrong LOL LOL sorry if it sounds like I am being difficult. I'm noob to all this as I learn more from you guys and the site.
-
Yes that is the most recent pic I have, should do new ones, From what I am reading maybe I am wrong at suggesting I am at a Plateau, Maybe because I never heard of a "maintenance" I'll have to look into this more. Thanks
-
PLATEAU or Maintenance whatever it is, are there more benefits of choosing lets say intake without having draw backs of muscle gain/breakdown? (If that makes sense, hard to explain what I mean) I'm leaning towards intake, specially when I can be doing better in that area anyway. Thank you.
-
So I'm confused, if I didnt gain muscle then how did I increase my body measurements while losing weight? Or am I looking/going about it wrong? Also I went from 191lbs to my current 164.. with the last 2-3 weeks not losing anymore weight which I was consistently doing prior to now?? So confused LOL
-
Thank you, I forgot to add my new weight. I would say about 2-3 weeks of up and down but nothing lower than 164lbs. up as high as 168 at times.
-
Re-feed weekend?? New to that, can you explain
-
That's a tough one because so far I have been working out to gain muscle and lose weight.. (Yes I know that doesnt sound right) but its worked so far.. My goals are to lose another 10 lbs get some ab definition and "gain muscle" at my current or goal weight. But I think I'm at a point where I'm asking for my cake and…

Oh boy.. eating more LOL that'll be fun. But makes sense as opposed to the way i was thinking I needed to do more cardio. Thank you
-
I just purchased a food scale late last week and have been getting into weighing because as you mentioned I think that will have a good impact on getting dialed in more correctly. Thank you.

+1 I add the same, mainly optimum and a banana (minus the sugar sub). Works great for me, keep me full a lot longer as well.

^ ^ ^ Agree 100% It's the behind the scenes macro's that usually cause problems/confusions for people with their goals

You'll shed about 5 more pounds without the beard LOL Totally kidding, awesome work man, That's dedication right there! Great motivation thank you!

I say EAT.. Just do it smarter. Choose what you like as apposed to eating with your eyes 1st. Drink lots of water, and just dont go crazy, enjoy the day- pick your favs without going overboard. realize when your satisfied. Just because it's a buffet doesnt mean you need to stuff your face with 5+ plates. Make a good meal…

Mary, I was a BIG carb and Junk food junkie, I mean there was times I would wake up at 2-3am with the thirst for pepsi, Everyday I had either Chinese buffet, Mcdonalds, Pizza, etc. I used to eat like you wouldn't believe. I was always active with MMA so it never was a real problem. Until all the activities stopped, working…

Great Job!!

I had that problem and I noticed that when I take it with Orange Juice on an empty stomach I don't have that problem anymore. Give it a shot.
-
+1 on that !
-
Everyone here as done such a great job. I have a lot more to go but I'll get there!
-
I would count it, I use a fitbit force and sit a good amount of the day as well., Even though your sitting your still burning calories with the movement you're doing. It will never be 100% accurate but it will be close enough.
-
ISOPURE, OPTIMUM NUTRITION, CELLUCOR are the brands I personally use and they taste great, ISOPURE to me is the best on the market but pricey. I usually go with OPTIMUM NUTRITION which has better price/volume. They also mix GREAT with anything, I've done pancakes, muffins, crapes, shakes, cookies, granola bars. If you have…
-
I should make a list on the 1st post of all the examples you guys have given. If I get time I'll do that. Thanks everyone!

Wow.. I cant and dont understand how so many people think gaming was made from Satan himself.. People please understand. Parenting raises your child.. You as a parent you allow what influences your child at home with a topic like gaming.. If you allow your child to sit in front of a video game system for hours on end YOU…

^ ^ ^ ^ ^ I think this is very true.. Also with wearing VFF's I think people need to remember that there is going to be a period of adjustment for your feet and muscles

Wish I can eat yogurt but every flavor or brand I try is soooooo weird and nasty to me LOL

Anybody have issues wearing the toe socks? I have a pair I want to wear for on the weekends with socks. Just wondering how anyone has made out

I would say to definitely do your research, you can find certain styles relatively cheap online.
