  • Vodka and Soda is best of the worst - no carbs! Mich ultra, Guinness are my two beer choices. Guinness has less calories than Bud Light believe it or not. Cheers, Frick
  • ...also a pound of muscle weighs as much as a pound of fat (or feathers, or rocks). It just takes up less space. It is 3x more DENSE than fat, so as you build muscle your clothes will fit better. That measurement beats using a scale any day.

  • Can I suggest a basal Metabolic Rate calculator. Here you enter your target (lets use short term target if you are going from 445lbs to say 300. I enter my age, TARGET WEIGHT, height, sex (M/F), and activity level. I set activity level at 0%. This will give you your required calories to reach said weight. From there, I add…
