The science of that diet sounds a lot like a deprivation / ketogenic diet and leads to a weight rebound in roughly 85% of most dieters. I'm guessing the Heart Hospital place would promote the diet for their patients because they would have difficulty becoming active. I'd say its not sound for young people who are either…

I say a conservative weight loss is def a better idea :o) No need to rush anything

B vitamins are your 'water soluable vitamins' largely responsible for helping the body recover from daily stressors including working out. B-12 is found in animal products and diffiuclt to ingest in adequate supply ESPECIALLY for those following a caloric regimine around 1200 calories. B 12 supplements are recomended for…

Believe it or not there are an enormous amount of factors that determine the answer to your question! ha...for example, fat loss depends on several elements including nutrition split, mode of exercise, rate of fat oxidation and exercise intensity, and of course GENETICS. If the mode of exercise for fat loss is cardio…

Go for it!

Monday: AM 50 minutes Cardio / Chest workout 50 minutes - PM 50 minutes Cardio / Tricep workout 40 minutes Tuesday: AM 50 Minutes Cardio / Back workout 50 minutes - PM 50 minutes Cardio / Bicep workout 40 minutes

About a year.

Have you begun stagering your carb intake? Moderate carb days with high carb days to restore muscle glycogen? Odds are those heavy legs are indicative of lower glycogen stores and a need for probably more water and carbs :o)

Rock and Roll...

Lowering fat below 20% isn't a good idea.

In my experience post workout meals higher in sugar seem to have less impact on my cravings and significantly reduce the risk of falling off the sugar wagon. Plus its beneficial for replenishing muscle glycogen which is recomended after a workout any way. :o)

Walmart has some off-brand egg rolls made of shrimp and lean chicken. They are excellent :o)

Probably a combo of both. The exercise for burning calories and the slight surplus in food energy can lead to an accute elevetion in metabolic rate :o) def a good thing to do every few days or so. Once a week is good.

Sounds reasonable :o)

Techno and heavy metal are great for the heart rate :o)

Its common for caloric reduction to have an effect on mood and such. Studies show one of the best supplements to counter these natural effects is excercise that follows a consistant increase in intensity, which helps level mood :o)

If it were me, I'd have a little of those kinds of foods while I was there. Then I'd say, 'That was so good, may I have some to take home?' Then I'd make sure to put those foods in the freezer so they don't call me name all day but I can enjoy them a little at a time :o)

Walking lunges, something you can do down the hallway at home. Werx really well :o)

Same boat....pretty common...it gets easier to manage in time...stay strong.

Interesting topic....hmmm, I'll be honest, I think deep down the quickest way to many men's heart is through his stomach and skinny people might have a different appreciation for fine dining. When it comes to the topic of taste I'd trust the opinion of a curvy woman any day and when you lead a fit lifestyle fine dining…

This is real normal becasue the body is composed of so much water. Fluxuations aren't a bad thing and I bet the weight will go down four pounds pretty soon :o)

Don't forget to give up honey :o)

Nutrition programing and boxing / fight training :o)

The rule of repetitive use injury is more so true of resistance training and NOT aerobic activity. Its safe to use the eliptical as much as you want :o)

I feel the same...

If the desire to change is SOLELY for you, that's awesome! If HE really said that and meant it he's got some growing up to do. And he needs to be bashed...

He sounds a little Bass Ackwards to me...

The first place you gain it is the last place you lose it and vice-versa...

Sounds like a wee little bit of impatience. The human body is 70% water. Its gonna fluxuate a bit and weight loss can be a bit, whats the scientific term?,...oh yeah, willy nilly. It can be willy nilly at times. Stay the course :o)

If you sneak it in and place in the top three they will probably disqualify you...
