STRAYA!!!!

Negatory! I farkin love my TO MAH TOES MATE

Stop saying 'literally' when you mean 'virtually'. Stop saying 'ironic' when you mean 'sarcastic'.

There's some book that came out that says sugar is the devil. People that read it turn into anti-sugar zealots.

You need to choose who you're going to listen to. If you want to listen to your doctor then just use MFP as a tool to track calories and ignore the warnings. If you want to listen to MFP then don't go to your doctor any more. I can't tell you who is right. You have to make that choice yourself.

You all are letting your brains get in front of your biology ...

In all honesty I don't think ANYONE knows how the body really works in relation to 'survival mode'. Some people say if you don't eat every nanosecond then you'll lose muscle. Some people say that survival mode won't kick in until a week or two of eating below your BMR. Bodybuilders believe that if you're not taking in more…

Impressive!

Interesting concept! Just thinking about it now I must admit that I look in the mirror quite a bit. I don't consider myself particularly good looking either.

For post lifting workout I have a whey isolate - "Optimum Nutrition 100% Whey". An isolate doesn't have added sugars; it's just whey. Whey digests quickly so it's good as a post workout protein shake. There is debate about whether you need a quick absorbing shake after workouts. Certainly if you have enough protein from…

Good work! I'm a former smoker myself so I know how hard it is.

You're over thinking it. Just eat roughly how much you burn on average.

Yeah dude don't run every day if you're just learning to run 5k. Just walk when you need to during the 5k race. If you try cramming 4 weeks of c25k into 2 weeks you'll end up with a torn muscle and you won't be going to the race at all.

Awesome achievement mate!

Awesome work mate!

BAM! That's how it's done!

What is your daily calorie goal? What are you eating? Your diary is not set to public so I can't check.

Watch this and fix your form: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6XiPP8D_qA0 Once your form is right your deadlift will sky rocket. If your form is wrong and you try to lift too much you will destroy your back.

On a serious note ... I added lifting (Stronglifts) to my exercise plan because lifting not only adds muscle to your body but it also strengthens your bones. That can prevent osteoporosis and other bone related issues down the track. Plus it feels damned good! When girls worry about lifting and getting bulky I tell them…

Hey most of us have issues with gaining back weight. Don't be so hard on yourself. As you said, there are plenty of walls in your way here. It's not your fault. Having said that, there is bound to be a way that you make this work. Don't give up because there's hurdles. Think about everyone in the world that are in your…

Take a break from dating if you just need the time to focus on yourself. A lot of the time you meet someone when you stop looking. By the way I think you're pretty.

Well done!

I only ban foods from my diet if I can't control myself with them or they just don't fit into my calorie goals. E.g. Bread is nice but even a small bit of it tends to blow out the meal's calories. To have a portion of bread that's small enough to not blow out the meal feel pointless because the portion is so small. I could…

I know a girl who touched a barbell once. She turned into the she-hulk over night. NEVER LIFT HEAVY!!!!

I remember taking Zyban to quit smoking. It started off as an anti-depressant but they found that it blocked the effects of nicotine. Really bad stuff. It made me feel stoned.

*Wolf Whistles* Well done! We're all in awe!

Don't even have to think about it. It's possible 100%. Inevitable, even. Don't look at it as dieting. Fix what's wrong with your current diet. Eventually you'll lose the extra weight.

Good on you for starting on the journey! Unsolicited advice: Your nutrition (aka diet) is the #1 most important thing. Exercise is awesome and it helps but nothing works if your nutrition isn't right :)

F-YEAH! QUADS!
