They're very close. Slightly low in leucine, but other than that, they're an excellent source of protein. This is pretty accurate: http://nutritiondata.self.com/facts/vegetables-and-vegetable-products/2551/2

Listen to this guy ^ The point he is touching on in an important one. You need to reset yourself and say "ok, lets start again" and be 100% sure you are tracking EVERY calorie correctly. E.g. Are you adding a sauce you don't account for? Are you forgetting to count something. It's hard to admit, but human error when…

There are pretty much NO legal fatburners that actually work anyway. Stuff like ephedrine is illegal (but works) and cytomel t3 (thyroid) is the same. Then you have the old wonderful DNP which is outright dangerous but will strip fat off like nothing else. Don't bother with "fat burners", just keep a decent deficit and…

Where you store fat is largely genetic. Some people can have a chiseled 6 pack and still have love handles (me included). So... you just need to continually lower bodyfat until they go. If you get down low enough, they'll go.

Yep! Same story here. I will be focused 100% for a period, then all of a sudden (without me realising most of the time) I am back to my terrible habits and back to (almost) square uno! Currently in my focused mode and I'm losing .. but could definitely do with a bit of motivation from MFP users too. Add me as a friend :)

I don't think there is a NEED to actually give anything up.. you just need to keep everything within your calories and macronutrient levels..
