Plan ahead etc, great advice. Diary is not able to be viewed but you state eating "enough" Some usual responses: nutritional foods first, stay within nutrional requirements and guidelines. I have yet to come across someone that says the volume/quantity of food is too sparse when accuractely Macro tracking. OP stated in her…

Consistency, you can do anything you want and you'll do it!

Find someone on-line that is close to your dream goal/physique... then surpass them. haha Motivation comes from all facets. That hunger that drive, that thing that keeps us going. So one option is find a target, and in reality, its clearly defining your goals. You can't get to where you want to be if you don't know where…

hella this!! be gone with the clean/unclean. Wash your food like everyone does so it's "clean" and edible and track and have fun and enjoy, whilst hitting Micros and fibre of course! Best of luck

Make better #gains than Mary by doing PHAT training and avoiding crossfit classes. And/or join class and kill it and again, make #gains. At the end of the day, trust and respect. It comes with the industry and having "clients", be firm in your resolve and know and trust daily that its yours. And if in the end you get…

^^^^ Just an idea but there are other calculators and its good to consult all of them and take them all into consideration. Sure there will be variation however MFP sometimes can be off at times. Some out there consider BMR and activity level which then makes it quite simpler (as its just 1 value, no math) and as long as…

yup!!!! concur, nicely said sir.

*arrow pointing up. "this!" agreed, how can that be sustainable.. yikes and yikes

Leptin levels, monitoring: calculated refeeds Macros Calorie Dense vs Nutrional Dense Make wise choices. Gone is the day of the bro-science and clean eating or healthy eating, such limited terms in a vast trolling environment. Long live science So do i cheat or have free days and how often. I do it everytime i want to…

Quest Chips FTW, fiber/protein etc... Cheetos XXTra flamin hots. Gluten Free and hella bomb. Nutritious, yeah that wasnt the question... I make them fit and it works for me. :) 3.49 bag, 9 servings. Sodium spike..vascularity goes up and then sweet sweet enjoyment with Chester Cheetah! Enjoy everyone, thanks for all the…

To the OP: Great advice given thus far, agree and concur. Here is something for consideration, taken from the all knowing Nick Cheadle Fitness(please google). Fantastic free advice and straight to the point, I myself have learned a lot, here is a small exerpt from his Blog which he encourages to be shared. "Arguably the…

Gasp. There is nothing facetious about Reindeer Games But agree and concur, it's all superfluous. To all I will only wish Happy Festivus for the rest of us!

I believe this is where the OP is talking about "mindset" etc. Agreed that Mindset can often out perform an under nourished diet, but that was not the original question. The answers you have been provided are accurate and I would concur that more research is needed. However if you still feel that the laws of physics are…

in for the POtatoes! but wait?!?!! Are they all the same? Or because their shapes are different maybe the calories are off. Perhaps the left potatoe calories are different from the other potatoes... Thank you for this highlight to my Monday!!
-
THIS!!!!!! yes..best the best from everything. Production/packaging etc and ingredient list is great too and macro friendly for sure...but be careful as they are really too good!

"we are not preschool toys, we can read" Someone call the waa-mbulance haha. I definitively and most wholeheartedly appreciate the comments. It is only via exposure and practice that the English language can be saved, but for those that cannot go ahead and buy word-a-day toilet paper and perhaps then the teaching can…

I am I am! It's the glorious day of Back and SHoulders. Gotta bring that V taper and the 2 pumpkins out with the striations and feathers to the family meal!

Yes! finally! My interest in this thread was lost on cats and how much cats weigh etc...until this bit of sanity above brought me back!! Thank you
-
There is a great disconnect. Huge, vast. I will gladly take the critics and judgments, I will take on the looks and stares as I order the most Macros I can and eat everything because guess what.. it not only fits but its what is required. If these people want to live reckless then that is fine by me. Smile and laugh but it…
-
And not 1 single Macro was tracked.... Good foods? bad foods? haha, this is too funny. Anywho; yes I will track, even if i dont enter it in I will still track. You mean to suggest that after days/months of tracking that one does not have a general idea? One always does, like a glass thats been shattered, ignorance cannot…

Banging them out at roughly $18 a box... and yes legit seller. (not me) I use them all the time! Good way to fit them in a pinch when there isn't a Chipotle nearby :)

Self potraits. Shredded selfies. #shreddies I see it all the time and given our level of social media its nothing that garners any attention. If anything gym goers are actively searching the "gym fails" that are amongst them to post wherever. I will comment on this and that change is hard to determine at times. When one…
-
To the OP I will answer with this... From the great words of Timbahwolffff... "Practice discipline. Or Practice being disappointed. Your choice." What are we going to do today Brain? The same thing we do everyday Pinky, lift and track macros and get our Micros in along with fiber. It's pretty much that simple in my own…

BCAA's currently watermelon flavor and/or Rasberry.

I could absolutely not do without Cheetos XXXtra Flamin Hots and Gummi worms(target brand) none of that Trolli stuff. srs The cheetos keep my sane and the gummi worms are amazing intra-workout. Of course I'll include protein and fiber too, definitely coudnt do without my chickens and/or fiber rich foods.

The only supplements that work in my opinion are: Stimulants Whey Creatine Now add creative marketing and bam, multi billion industry. I'm with the majority on this one. Eat real food. Whey is technically food but should only be "supplemental" to "assist" those that cannot meet their dietary requirements but nothing can…

Definitely no Cardio for punishment. That's like punishing your gains, cardio is a tool. Whilst some may view it as punishment; rather focus on the end result and aim towards that vs. some form of exercise that some may excel at and some may not want to do. Would one punish a marathon runner with "laps?" This would serve…
-
As the OP indicated that this is not a call for advice I will not offer any. You specifically asked for "motivational difficulties" and this I and likely everyone can attest to as a result of a plateaus. :) Without bordering "advice" I would venture to offer that I myself find plateaus very demotivating. In the end I find…
-
Having done both Insanity and P90x a few times I was inundated with suggestive marketing that this is the "shake" that was needed. I am an advocate for any cardio and if it comes from a DVD/company so be it and way to go! srs Perhaps a better alternative answer can be: purchase the shakes now (if needing assistance to…

I prefer the term "fluffy as eff" :) As in, after my refeed, I'm hella fluffy, fuarrrrk!
