  • Protein... GREAT to go over... I take in 150+ grams a day. I've heard from numerous sources that you should take in - in grams of protein - the same amount as your lean body weight... 200lb @ 30% fat would want 140 grams of protein a day. 200*0.30=60 lb of fat 200 - 60 = 140 lb of lean body mass = amount of recommended…
  • That's awesome! I've upped my calorie intake just recently due to hunger and all the posts on here suggesting that, MAYBE you aren't eating enough, and that's what's causing the scale to be static! Your LTG - is my ultimate goal as well... I could care less what I weigh if I can shed the shirt and see the good ripples!
  • If it's 6lb per inch... that isn't far off at all! I would like to be an even 200... but that may be a little too much of a loss for me now, especially since I'm trying to be fit rather than skinny.

It doesn't know my build or fat displacement throughout my body (could be all in the belly or spread out between arms, legs, belly, face, etc...). And…
  • You can if you want... The best way is to get a heart rate monitor and wear it while working out. Those can tell you how many calories you burn throughout the workout. Other than that, it's simply a guess as to how many you think you burned lifting weights. There are so many factors that play into calorie loss by lifting…
  • +1 on coffee, apple juice & cranberry juice. Those are all engine starters for THIS guy!
  • Thank you for all the comments and help! I try to get to the gym in the mornings... but have a hard time getting myself out of bed. Shame on me! I stumbled across the thread about getting up in the morning for workouts ON THIS SITE!!! How awesome is that... you think you are having a hard time with something... chances…
  • I love it! Get up to turn off the alarm... that is one I'm going to try to implement
