Nope. If someone eats chicken or a serving of fish, some dark leafy greens and a potato they are nailing quite a few RDA's with plenty of calories left for other stuff. Eat the rainbow as best you can each *day*, eat nutrient dense foods for your goals, blah blah blah *edit

True, but most people eat for adherence and long term goals. So unless you view the diary daily you aren't really sure. Maybe they are logging a select few items for other reasons.

True, but again.....who cares if somebody isn't eating their fruit and vegetables? Are there a few folks with eating disorders who think 5 carrots is a serving? Sure. They'll figure it out.

"yes, that is true, although" potatoes and bananas pretty easy to find and consume. Also, potatoes provide many nutrients almost a complete food.

PT each weekday provides an opportunity for you to either ask the XO or an NCO for additional work. Folks who would try to max out their 2 mile run time would train for several weeks with an extra long morning run with the XO. Individually their times dropped. Most people hit the low time so it was rewarding. An extra…

Ninkyou has a good point. You may want to look at when you are the hungriest in a day and think a little about what you need for nutrition and what you are doing.

What short term goal do you have? How much do you weigh? How tall are you? Age? If you exercise, what do you do? By answering these questions you may be able to enjoy more calories then you are consuming today and reach your goal. If you can't answer them then you increase your chances of being miserable with weight loss.…

If you consider taking a crap a squat without anything but your own body damaging or dangerous how do you go the loo? You probably have squatted many times without injury. Somebody probably has the video of some 80+ YO doing a DL with some considerable weight. I think you'll be okay......or they eventually kill you. Either…

This I did not know.....hmmm....okay seems legit.

So foods like potatoes in a can aren't a good source of micronutrients? Canned beets? You can always request more micro dense items from your sources. Maybe come up with a list of more micro dense foods for these kiddos and your halfway to your issue.

Very strange; it says nothing like for most people. Where are you reading this?

Hal Holbrook in All The President's Men?!? Gold Star?!?!?!?!?

Because Gotham needs a Dark Knight.

Okay, so here is what I'd recommend. Use this app for calorie counting. On days you go over make a list of every food you ate last. Boom. They are bad because they prevent you from losing weight. Example: this week my 'bad' foods are semi sweet morsels with Jif peanut butter, PB&J sandwich, chicken wings, and a protein…

woo hoo! Love the pic.....and in my next life I want to move faster then a turtle(terrapin) ;)

This list was on the heels of the top 40 trainers so I was already sort of giggling when this one came up. Lists are good; I use my phone to take a picture of a whiteboard grocery list. I realize a lumberjack is losing their job due to this and forests are being saved with my use of technology(again kidding) but it also…

Egg actly. While I cooked bacon for a cancer patient he laughed when we'd discuss topics like this. Their family history had a more significant impact then their diet.

I think this has been 'known' for a while, seared meat, etc comes to mind. Moderation probably helps; if I eat 2 pounds of sausage daily and sit around like 3 toed sloth then maybe it increases my likelihood of cancer. Then again....

Gosh, IDK, bacon has fatty acids I need?!? It tastes really good and what cancer will I get by eating it or increase a likelihood of XXXX cancer? Colon? Can they tell me where it will begin in my body? Any idea where or what primary organs it will go to? The problem with statements like this 'cancer causing' is always…

This morning, fried egg, cheese, avocado.......I'll have it on an Asiago bagel.....so skip the bagel. Maybe some Sriracha sauce as a topper

What sort of exercise do you do and approximately how many calories are you burning? In the past week what is an average day of calories for you?

#39 can only be purchased in Canada. Kidding. OP-it is list, looks like a list, has plenty of options, makes sense.

If and when you do this please stay down wind from us. Thx. M-u-ah :p

I would pay money for a good Brandywine tomato today.

They shoot these out of the sky in Arkansas.

Up before the sun! Bam. Ouch. Strange dreams.....squatting, knees, squatters, owner rights........must drink more coffee.

Are you saying 5 to 6 tablespoons of coconut oil eaten daily probably isn't needed?

You are going to want to research protein intake and ketosis. 220 grams of protein seems high but at 250 plus pounds you may be okay. Again, research how protein levels can kick you out of ketosis. Best of luck.

We have a Burnley man; local f-u-t-b-o-l coach. I have learned spiked, mashed, and other terms mean different things to an Englishman versus a 'Merican.

California or tootsie. It is a toss up.
