Eat as much as you want as long as you measure/weigh it out and the calories from it fit into your caloric intake for that day.

I'm not sure if you like oatmeal, but, if you do... I HIGHLY, and I mean HIGHLY suggest ordering a bag from www.myoatmeal.com It's more expensive than store oatmeal,but, you literally create it from the ground up. Custom flavors, add-ins, etc. I have 5 different bags in my cabinet and have it literally every morning.

Sadly, no one can really truly help you. No one knows how you work, what you do in your spare time, or how long you are on your feet. Be honest with those calculators and use common sense when picking your activity level. Monitor your progress for a few weeks with the calories you were given. Weigh yourself 1st thing on a…

Well, almond milk has 30 calories per cup. Personally, I can get a lot more protein for a lot less calories then milk would give me. I enjoy saving my calories for pop-tarts, ice cream, etc. (I follow IIFYM)

You can order it directly from their website, or, go to WWW.myoatmeal.com and create your OWN flavor (it really is amazing, I did frosted vanilla, tastes godly!) GNC sells it (Regular & Chocolate flavor) and Krogers does as well... they keep it in the organic "natural" food isle. I won't lie, it doesn't taste exactly like…

Fiber One cereal. They have a few different flavors and I believe a 3/4 cup serving is only 80 calories, and it really is good. Use Almond milk and add 30 more calories. Not to shabby. Have a whey shake with it, protein bar, eggs, steak & eggs, pork chop and some light gravy, etc.

Are you sure 1200 calories is correct? Try a few online calorie calculators and use the general range number from all of them. (SOME fine tweaking might be necessary). Eat filling foods like people have said. Light & Fit greek yogurt, baby carrots, oatmeal, egg whites, Fiber One cereal, chicken breast, salad with light…

1st.... your body always needs a rest day, or days during the week. I don't care who you are, how fit you are, period. YOU NEED REST. Why you weren't doing this in the first place is beyond me. 2. Foods don't make you fat, excess calories do. Eat whatever YOU ENJOY, not what we enjoy. 3. You obviously need to up your…

When you go to maintenance, weight just doesn't show up over night, especially true fat. It takes 3,500 calories to gain a TRUE POUND. What you're seeing is glycogen levels raising, especially with an increase of carbs (it levels off after a week) and a little bit of water weight. To me 1,100 seems really low. Go here and…

If you want something sweet, with oatmeal.... just make overnight oats. - 1 serving oats -1 serving protein powder - 1/2cup Almond milk (thicker) or water (thinner) - a lot of cinnamon (if you like it) - little bit of vanilla extract - 1 or 2 packets of sweetener Mix it all up in a bowl, OR an empty peanut butter jar (<---…

I really like it. The first two times I tried it, it made my stomach hurt, gurgle, and turn all night long... it hurt BAD. But the third time it was fine. I just cut mine in half, flip it cut side down on tinfoil and bake it for 50-55 minutes. Brown some lean beef, throw browned beef into the "boat" as I call it..... since…

I just use Splenda. I know I'm going to die one day, and I'm not going to restrict myself of things I like in life.

Once, or twice a week, go up to your MAINTENANCE level, that's it.

... ? Get help from a doctor?

No need to. Carbs don't make you fat. Keep your carbs at normal levels. At first you may see a few lb. gained but that is just glycogen getting re-stored in muscles from low carbing on certain days, but it evens off after a few days. If your carb sensitive and it bloats you badly then don't eat as many... just up your…

Oz = scam artist All the trash you read in your female magazines = **** advice too. I was amazed at the sheer stupidity when I read a weight-loss article in my wife's magazine.

-Protein shake (in blender with add-ins for variety) or a plain shake in a bottle -Greek yogurt, the flavored king... not the nasty *kitten* plain kind. -Almonds / Nuts -Turkey Jerky -Eggs / Egg whites / hard-boiled eggs -mini lunch meat wraps (make yourself) -Quest Bars (microwave 10 seconds, cut in half, roll flat with…

As long as your not going under 500 calories of your BMR your ok. And make sure you meet up to as close as you can to your requirement calories so you have the energy to preform and so muscle loss won't take place.

Look up IIFYM

That website is a good source of info, but, their protein intake is way off. For NATURAL athletes / building muscle 0.6 - 0.8g per LB of body-weight. I'd go with 0.8 though.

You don't have to. Granted a forum is almost a free reign territory but most people don't get on here cursing like sailors, posting nude pics, etc. So being 18+ is totally not necessary, and if they stumble on a curse word... oh well... that's life. And that child WILL be exposed to a lot more dangerous and harmful things…

I have no idea what JUDD is. I don't keep up with diets/trends/ or any of that other gimmick ****. I just know Carbs/Fats/Protein. And working out 5x a week, if you really do, and consuming 450 calories on down days.... you're just hurting your body.

I never said I believe in "muscle confusion" it's a myth. You need to scroll up and read assrats comments, or whatever his name is.

That hurts, bro, it hurts. Especially coming from someone who believes in "muscle confusion". I bet you take Hydroxycut too, huh? And who doesn't take progression pics during a bulk / cut to see the difference? Sorry I don't run marathons and cross-fit (lol) like you.

-Weigh out about 4oz.-6oz. chicken , get a pita bread or wrap, 1-2 servings of carrots, and a greek yogurt. -Scramble 5-6 egg whites, put a serving of oatmeal in a container and prepare it at work (if you can) and add sweetener. - Tuna with some light mayo on a wrap, carrots, greek yogurt - Chicken or steak 4-6oz. fried up…

I oven bake my kale with sea salt. It gets the texture of a thin potato chip.

It's one day dude, it won't matter if you go a bit over calories. People don't get overweight from one cheese-burger. Just like you won't get skinny eating one salad. My wife and I don't go out on V-Day. Too many kids, too long of a wait for a place to eat, etc. We just get some Chinese takeout.... usually rice with…

bro-science. Progressive overload is what builds lean muscle, not .... "confusion", WTF ever that is. Adding weight, reps, or sets from your NORMAL plan is what matters. I've been doing the same routine for over 2 years now and my arms are even bigger than in my current profile pic. I THINK I CONFUSED MY MUSCLE DUDES!

The after effects and repairing process of muscle breakdown from lifting will burn more calories over the course of hours than cardio will. Keep up the resistance training, don't ditch it. Do some medium paced cardio or medium resistance elliptical after your resistance training. Don't overdue lifting. Remember, muscles…
