  • I feel you on this one. I'm very comfortable going back and forth, or being right in the middle. I've always just thought of myself as a very feminine man who could become a very stealthy drag-queen with ease. But, when I was very heavy, if I dressed towards the male side, I tended just to look frumpy and people…

  • Oh, yes! I think if I cut out all fat (or even went down to the mfp default recommendation), I'd be miserable. I don't know how people do it.

  • More info on this? I've heard that if you are on a ketogenic diet, you MUST keep your fats up, but I haven't heard about needing to keep carbs up.

  • Eat light and clean for a week and take lots of green tea (or herbal if you're sensitive to caffeine). I find that I'm most bloated after over-doing it on the sugary, carby, or salty stuff, so cut way back on that - maybe more than you would otherwise. And get plenty of water. MOST IMPORTANT: Don't go on a harsh…

  • Yeah, my bf and I work out together, so I've got a spotter. And I'd definitely invest in a rack if I got the barbell.

  • Yeah, I think the size of her muscles was what was throwing me off. Thanks for the advice. I'll keep doing what I'm doing for the time being, but keep my eyes out for a decent/afforable gym. I'm wary of gyms that I can afford - I had a bad experience with my town's Fitness 19 branch. No showers, no changing area,…

  • Thanks for the link. Do you think her bf% is higher than that? She *is* a bodybuilder, but in that video, she looks like her bf% might be a bit higher than in her photos. ETA: I'm not aiming for her look in her photos, but rather the video. Would you say 18-20% is more reasonable?

  • Check around the freezer aisle and peak at the nutrition facts on non-"diet" frozen entrees of a similar portion. A lot of the time, they are actually lower in calories and the same in sodium for something that tastes quite a bit better.
