I try to sick with somewhere in between 1g/lb and 1g/lbm, that gives me a goal of at least 100g day. I follow a 30% protein, 30% fat and 40% carb diet and with that I can make my protein goals. I use a lot of greek yogurts, cottage cheese, egg whites, and an occasional protein supplement since I really only eat…

You most certainly did not gain that much weight in fat or muscle in two weeks. That would be an extra 17,500 calories of intake and it takes time to actually build muscle that will show on the scale. You are tearing muscle fibers when you lift heavy -that is a GOOD thing- so that they can rebuild and "grow". Your body is…

You've got another new lifter here. Feel free to browse food and workouts. I'm good at logging daily. Feel free to FR me.

Love deadlifts. Cable pull-throughs, sumo, plie and goblet squats, hip thrusts with weight on a Swiss ball, weighted lunges and step-ups etc....keep increasing the weights as you get stronger.

I agree, worrying about every gram of sugar isn't exactly necessary if you are making a point to balance your daily choices with proper protein, fat, and fiber intake. That 1-2 glasses of OJ a day is where it looks like you are getting the most sugar bombs in your day. Whole fruit would at least give you the fiber to go…

you are glowing! fantastic work!

I did my first set of pullthroughs today and felt ridiculous. BUT I finished my sets....blushing and sweating in sync.

I think they look awesome but have thought the same thing. I'll do it if you do it.

Love my Mirena. $25 co pay for placement and 5 years of easy control. No pills, no rings, no mood swings, no wt gain, no babies.

Completely agree with the benefits of taking a day or so off on a regular basis. Switch up your routes too, keeps it interesting.

These charts are set up so wonderfully. Thanks- Zuzana is KILLER- love her.

It depends on how you are utilizing those minutes. If you are doing something like the elliptical or an easy walk around your neighborhood that probably won't be too adequate. However, if you are doing something more intense like HIIT or weight/strength training you'll be getting much more payout for your time and effort.…

I'm not going to say if I think it is "good" or "bad" but there are a number of things she may be considering that you haven't yet. If you are over the age of 50 your metabolism is going to be significantly different that you had at 25. She probably has taken into consideration your Lean Body/Muscle Mass in comparison with…

This Calculator looks phenomenal. I think it is going to help me put my caloric and macronutrient intake into a whole new world of perspective. Thanks for sharing!

Done!!

I allow myself a pizza day once a week. I order one slice of vegetarian with mushrooms, tomato slices, bell pepper, onion, olives, broccoli and spinach, and ask for 1/2 the amount of cheese. Its a veggie and fiber filled meal that has protein and makes me feel like I'm not depriving myself. Make alterations and you won't…

I'm 5' 3.5" SW: 173 Chest: 31 CW: 115 Waist: 26 GW: 108 Hips: 36.5 I'm working on building muscle and and getting toned. I'd like my core to be tighter, strengthen my arms and back, and build a killer butt.
