3grams protein, 2.5 grams of fat, 15g carbs

Any back story? How long was your journey?
-
I'd assume it would be a similar texture to Go-gurt when frozen. It should be fine.
-
Buy the trays people use for homemade popsicles, and put the sticks in it. Then you can weigh it as you fill it, and have an accurate calorie count.
-
I may have misspoke by referring to it as long term energy source, seeing as it doesn't have the fiber the other examples have, but in comparison to sugar it's still a slower energy release.
-
No, first you wouldn't be comparing similar calories because it takes less to achieve the same sweetness, but secondly if we were talking the exact same calories, the calorie that spikes your sugars higher will cause you to burn less fat. You might lose the same weight, but fatloss>weightloss
-
It will take less Agave to achieve the same sweetness which will save you calories, and it won't spike your blood sugar, so your body will continue burning fat. Sugar, white bread, and white rice are good immediately after training to absorb more protein. Things like Agave nectar, wheat bread, and brown rice are for long…

Overnight oats, or blender made protein shakes are great, and last a while before I get hungry. You can learn to do oven baked scramble eggs, and serve it out reheated over 4 days.

I think it's having my daughter come into my life. Setting a good example for her is motivation enough to tackle all obstacles.

My strict shoulder press is back to 200lbs. I need to replace 2 belts because they are just for looks now. I can finally run a mile in 10 mins. I've been a non smoker for over 3 weeks. My daughter finally said dada

I take Neon Volt, it's made by cellucor, but doesn't have creatine added in (so you can add it yourself, or avoid it if you want), and it has a stronger caffeine dosage. It can be found for as little as 9.99 for 36 servings.
-
Here's my take on it. If you're training, and focusing on the macros, calories, and trying to adhere to a strict daily meal plan with things like prep meals. Then yes go out and have a nice meal somewhere once a week, or every 2 weeks. BUT first last at least 30 days without any cheat meals. I believe you need to learn…

Have you considered running in place? It's a legitimate strategy.
-
Do you plan to on exercising, or just dieting? With a small goal of 28lbs I'd suggest focusing meals around chicken, ground turkey, and white fish mostly. I keep bulk bags of steam-able veggies in my deep freeze, and keep plenty of seasoning around, so I can bake flavorful food without oils.
-
Return them, and pick up a bottle of Alive multi for women at the grocery store instead. Use GNC for BCAA, Creatine, and Protein supplements. Maybe a pre-workout if you want one.
-
What did you do to shed 108lbs in roughly 2 months? Or was the year a typo? I worked my butt off for 34 in 2 months lol.
-
What are your goals?
-
I based my goal weight at the highest Lean Body Mass I could have naturally at 15% body fat. which is around a 25 on the FFMI measurement. So eventually between 185-195lbs.
-
I think the OP would be better off on bodybuilding's misc forum.
-
Shorten you lifting sessions to between 1-1 1/2 hours. Start doing sprint intervals. Make sure your macros have you eating a gram of protein per pound of body weight.
-
It's all about your work ethic. Once a week to once every other week works for me, but I also have the added benefit that my trainer runs a free group class.
-
Once you've saturated your muscles you only need 2.5 to 5 grams a day at your convenience. Just make sure you're drinking plenty of water.
-
Wow I feel like this was something I definitely needed to see. I Started at 285 back in 2014 made it down to 230, and over 2 years of lifting lazily, and bad diet I made good strength gains, but put the weight back on all the way up to 282. I started back at it in August 2016 I went from 282 down to 250 so far. Big…

Either higher a trainer with a Caliper (can be off by a few %), or get in the water http://www.cosmed.it/en/test-site-locator (it'll cost a bit)

BMI matters unless you've trained to have a lot of extra muscle. Congrats! Check out your FFMI https://www.easycalculation.com/health/ffmi-calculator.php

I just quit smoking 11 days ago, and I'm aiming to lose weight. I slowed down from losing 4 to 5 lbs a week to 2lbs a week, so no harm done. The first week cravings cost me between 150-450 extra calories a day. I'm getting hunger back under control already. Portion controlled snacks are what helped a lot, plus all my meals…

Do you happen to get your Lean body mass measured while at 248? Do you have a current LBM measurement? I'm curious because I'm 5'8 250lbs 176lbs LBM and 74lbs of fat. I'm curious about muscle loss on the way down. I've heard it can be as much as 30% of the total weight loss. I've set my goat as 200lbs, but maybe 185lbs…

I like doing these they're are really filling, and feed the house. For a really good fast version I'll buy John Soules, or HEB chicken, or steak fajita meat, no sodium or low sodium pinto, black, and red kidney beans, no sodium or low sodium corn, a bag of salad, or greens, shredded cheese, and plain Greek yogurt. If I…

I like to walk at 3.5mph, and jog at 6mph it keeps me focused on achieving a 10 minute mile.
