  • Thank you! I was on the fence on whether or not I should stop weight loss and start bulking. I'm going to continue with losing 0.5 pounds a week but increase my protein and longer strength workouts.

  • I don't think she means actual binging, I think she means just letting loose one day. I think it's healthy, life is all about balance.

  • The average person has to eat at least 1,200 calories a day, regardless of your net calories, (or else your metabolism slows and you gain weight) but if you don't exercise, that means you end up with negative net calories because you are only allowed 1,200 net calories. So you have to do some form of exercise to gain some…

  • I agree that calorie counting is not as important as eating foods with high nutritional value. But I definitely needed it to eat healthier, because even when I started eating healthy and exercising I wasn't losing weight. And it was because I didn't know how to coordinate my diet to balance it out. For example, I ate…

But during college my eating habits and lifestyle made me lose that muscle mass. Now that I started weight training I can compare to the guy friends I go with because we use the same weights for…
