fascinating :laugh:

:laugh: Guess they gotta send a request to find out. :wink:

:blows kiss from PA:

Didn't read anything but the first post. I've read BCAA's let a guy on MFP do just that. So I 'THINK' it is possible. - bring the intensity - difficult? - yes.

^this is basically how I won over all my friends :bigsmile: that and winks :wink:

^:laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: Love that.

^so gr8!

Believe me.. I know :wink: in my first 3 MFP PALS!

maybe he would feel more full and naturally get to a maintenance or caloric deficit? idk.. I don't understand the doctors reasoning either.

It's true.. I try to have AT LEAST 100 FLoz daily.

^It's true... they made me feel like an idiot many a time in arguments about smith machines and what not -then after looking further into it I realized I was the wrong one. :embarassed: MFP has helped get me the body I wanted - it is an awesome resource. Just be respectful and playful and you get entertained and…

:laugh:

^agree

I'm interested - I mess up about one meal a week but I'm pretty good eating 95% clean.

:blushing: I'm pretty nice

:laugh: Log it and eat it back up! I log everything, golfing, swimming, walking - log it up boss. :drinker:

What is important with sodium is finding your potassium relationship with it. If I were to have 4k of sodium daily I would have pimples all over my face - UNLESS I hit my potassium ratio. And it will indeed cause bloating -but not for guys our size :smokin:

Well I certainly hope God showers you with blessings. :flowerforyou: Your kind words even brightened my day. :drinker:

Respectfully - nothing once I peer back the veil of it makes me happy. - Just think if God is omniscient, why create the devil, lucifer initially anyway? Doing so opened a pandoras box, because it means you potentially can sin in heaven as lucifer had pride in heaven and fell. So, this leads me to believe that we as a…

Sure? and I know marathon runners that lift? I see your point but there are tons of other moving parts there as well - diet, sleep.. my word bro - nitpick much?

ok I was wrong - good share! learned something myself.

^that is rubbish -we were not designed for constant long, distance running. 1st off we were not designed - cute idea but we are nothing special just the only animals aware of our own impending death and suffering. 2nd - long distance running is not good for you - endurance running is not something we were 'built' for - you…

I have a less then perfect right knee- running hurt a great deal when I first started... I don't recommend pushing through the pain to anyone, rather listen to your body - if you knee is throbbing then don't run, rather immediately stretch your legs like crazzzzy, if I even start to feel pain I stop everything and take a…

lmoa - you don't have to even exercise with other ppl. ...but I think I work out better around other ppl - bring the intensity if you want too loose that much weight, but regardless the gym life isn't ganna do much for you. With that much weight you need to get a on a caloric deficit. -I'm not even saying eat clean, but at…

^solid advice

ahhh! motivation to get in shape from a breakup! Good for you - looking long term make it all about you, but in the short term if you can harness those feelings into positive energy.. craft that body into anything you want. good luck! :flowerforyou: and you won't believe it, but the world is full of men - and I have cut…

at that body fat percentage for being a lady you are very close to abs, the main girl i'm dating now has 14% body fat and she has amazing abs. I recommend doing weighted abs in various positions and weighted obliques... your too skinny to look fat from weighted abs and if you flex the six pack will become visible. just my…

all fantastic points! :flowerforyou: thanks for your input and insight. I'm very very glad you guys have hammered the smith hate at me - I didn't get it at first but after looking into it... sheesh. I've even been recommending it too ppl at my gym :embarassed: and yeah I'm happy with the creatine - I just take it in the…

^they already made the point its not just lean muscle, it is water, glycerin, creatine saturation, some fat -but not fat/fat :wink: and ...drum rolll... some lean muscle!
