Beer. Lots of beer.

This thread has not disappointed. Bravo! I guess the OP bailed?

Barring trans fats, there really isn't.

Carbs make you hold water. When you eat more, you have more water in you. You aren't stalled, you are just holding more water. There is no impact on fat loss though.

This simply isn't true for everyone. Maybe for you... Definitely not for me. Blanket statements in nutrition are rarely true.

At a certain point, you will just spin your wheels with bodyweight exercises. You have to have progressive overload to get stronger and bigger. Some can do that with bodyweight exercises, some can't. You can definitely progress faster and at a more efficient rate with weightlifting, but the answer is still "Yes, you can…

Yes, it can make you stronger.

I eat at a restaurant at least once per day. I lose just fine. Just saying...

not enough to worry about if you aren't adding anything to it. About 1 calorie per 8oz

So true and so sad.

And another quote on opinions.... I have had so many conversations or email exchanges with students in the last few years wherein I anger them by indicating that simply saying, "This is my opinion" does not preclude a connected statement from being dead wrong. It still baffles me that some feel those four words somehow…

To quote Bill Bullard and words to live by... “Opinion is really the lowest form of human knowledge. It requires no accountability, no understanding. The highest form of knowledge… is empathy, for it requires us to suspend our egos and live in another’s world. It requires profound purpose larger than the self kind of…

That's not for me to figure out. Hopefully there are other things you love.

Find what you love and make a career out of it. I know it's cliche, but that doesn't make it less true.

Well, luckily for you, this isn't correct. I mean, yea, caffeine is a bit dehydrating, but you don't need to offset coffee or drink plain water if you don't want to. Not sure where that came from.

Sounds like you are having meat for dinner.

I cut carbs to lose weight....as well as fat and protein (ie calories). My carb percentage has stayed relatively constant.

Stay consistent and stick to your calorie goals and it will happen. Good luck! Be patient!

When I was overweight, I wore as big of clothes as possible. Now that I'm lean, I wear basically the same style, but it is usually fitted.

When I am trying to be as accurate as possible (ie cutting/losing weight), I count every vegetable and fruit. Since calories are king, it is beneficial for me to know where I'm at. Whether you should or shouldn't eat the fruit/vegetables is a whole other question. To answer, if I am out of calories for the day, no, I won't…
