"The Eat Clean Diet" By Tosca Reno

I log EVERYTHING and EVERY DAY. Feel free to take a look

I'm almost 3/4 to 40lbs but feel free to add me

Feel free to add me

Don't eat them back. But as a guy you may want to look at eating no less than 1600kcal a day. so you can eat back 200. But even if you exercised 2000kcal you still should eat less than 1600kcal or over 1800kcal to lose weight

@Bcattoes, I am sure there have been studies down showing both sides. They are like statistics, studies can be manipulated to prove whatever point is trying to be made. I am speaking from my own personal experience. I work out an hour a day because that is the perfect amount of time. It is long enough that I feel like I…

I'm and Endo, but would love to be a MESO

There are not short cuts to exercise. If you don't have the time to walk you won't have the time to do other cardio. Now you can do lunges or squats in your living room. This will save you time getting ready to go on a walk but in the end any exercise takes "time". You just have to find the time. It’s not that we don’t…

Want to know the secret to weight loss?......... There is no SECRET.. “There are no secrets to success. It is the result of preparation, hard work, and learning from failure.” -Colin Powell As I approach the end of my first round of P90X I am bombarded with questions about what I am doing and how I am losing so much…

Harlow, That sounds like a great plan. I like the idea of doing Cardio on an empty stomach, that is what I do as well. I also like the three day split. That's something else I do. The only things I would look at if I were you are: 1.) Re-think doing abs every day. (They are a muscle group like the other's and can suffer…

It all depends on your timeline. When do you want to see results. If you do the cake on Wednesday, the buffet on saturday and then the lunch on Sunday you will just delay the time it takes to reach your goals. I know this sounds harsh but think about "Why" you want to lose the weight and how bad you want it. If you want to…

I'm about to wrap up my first round but will be starting again soon

I weigh in every day. I know that food and water will make it fluctuate but that is the point of the site. For me I use it to log everything. every thing I eat from cake to a piece of peppermint candy. With that being said I don't fret over day to day changes. If I gain 2lbs from Mon to Wed I don't worry about it because…

I like GNC 100% whey. Pretty cheap and great quality. A good recipe is: 1 cup frozen bluberries 1.5 tablespoons peanut butter 1 scoop protein

it will come off there eventually. Just make sure you try and get in some strength training because with a little more muscle the fat will come off faster meaning it will leave you waistline quicker too. But you are right you can't spot reduce. You body will store the fat where it sees fit.

Strength training for sure. By increasing your lean body weight with added muscle you will not only drop body fat but you will increase your basil metabolic rate so even at rest your body will burn more calories. STRENGTH TRAINING for sure. With good rest and post recovery protein.

Wow... You look great

Also try to take Glutamine. It's real cheap and it helps get that lactic acid out of your muscles to reduce soreness

I am finishing up P90X and previewed The ASYLUM, cause I'll do that next and It was CRAZY tough.

This may sound weird but I love: 4 egg whites, 1/3 cup oatmeal (quick oats) and 2tbs of peanut butter and some truvia. Here's what you do: 1. Mix the egg whites and quick oats in a bowl. 2. Pour them into a heated up small skillet and cook through. Flip once and cook the other side. 3. Place on a plate (It's like a…

Track EVERYTHING!!! Otherwise when you get to a plateau and need to look at what you are doing, you won't have the "Entire Picture". In order to make changes in the diet to see changes on the scale, you must know EVERYTHING that is in the diet. Just my thoughts...

Here's an article I wrote on motivation. It's just a few words of encouragement and some YouTube videos that will make you want to get your fitness goals accomplished. http://teamfightinggenetics.com/2012/10/motivation-overload/

I'm doing Insanity "The ASYLUM" from beach body. It's only 30 days and not as expensive as Insanity. Definitely geared towards men.

While your trying to lose weight do 50% protein 30% carbs and 20% fat, then when you are maintaining do 40% protein, 40% carbs and 20% fat.

Agree with ALL. Don't eat them back. If you figure the body was designed to run on 2000Kcal that is taking into account that we move around ALL day and HUNT our own food. we aren't doing that any more. I went to Ranger School and ate only 1900Kcal a day and moved ALL day 15+ miles a day with an 80lb ruck sack.. I lost…

I've struggled with overeating before and someone suggested Overeater's Anonymous (O.A.) check their website out. It is pretty helpful.

Pandora is the way to go. I like "Lil Wayne" Radio mixed with "Flo Rida". Works for me.

Also look at what the calories are made out of. For example protein, carbs and fats. Not all calories are created equal. You may be able to break your barrier by changing the ratios of those three Macro nutrients. Try eating 50% protein 30% carbs and 20% fats. Also only eat back half of your exercise calories. If you use a…
