The kipping pullups are kind of hilarious. All that said, Rich Froning, the 4 time champ is pretty impressive, especially winning all three events on the final day.

I must be missing something, but if it is too thick just add more liquid.

If there really isn't a scoop in there, use a 1/4 measuring cup and just weigh it. Had to start weighing mine as a serving of my protein powder is 37g, but when I scoop it, it can weight well over 50g.

My wife makes more the moment, as I'm currently under employed. When both fully employed we make about the same, as we do that same thing. Not too much to handle as most bills are directly withdrawn from our checking accounts. She handles the small stuff that actually requires a written check like the kids school fees.

A cup of black coffee. No matter what I ate for breakfast I was still hungry 30 minutes later. Now I drink a cup of coffee around 7 am and am good until my first meal sometime between 11 and 12.

North Side of Chicago!

Juice got me thinking about when people say O.J. instead of orange Juice, All that does is remind me of is O.J. Simpson and I don't need to be reminded of that. Yummo! That just needs to stop. "That's how I roll" - my 11 year old said that yesterday, I told him he sounded like an idiot.

I don't view a cheat day or cheat meal as the opportunity to eat something of which I've been depriving myself. I use it as a metabolism boost. After a few weeks on a consistently low calorie diet, if I start to struggle completing a couple consecutive workouts, I'll have a "Cheat Meal". To me that will not mean unlimited…

Ooh, piece of candy! Ooh, piece of candy! If my kids see something like a Jolly Rancher on the table they'll say that as they pick it up.

Lois: I love you Peter Peter: and I've grown quite fond of you too Lois. I use that one on my wife once in a while, She doesn't take it too well Or Brian and Stewie go to an alternate universe where religion never existed so science has advanced. They see Meg walking down the street looking like a supermodel, still with…

Only have had three things today: Black Coffee Ground Turkey w Sriracha Brocolli Given those choices, I have to go with the Turkey.

As exciting as it is, Chicken Breast. It is almost entirely protein so it doesn't really mess with your other macros. Don't buy the hype about nuts and protein. YEs they have protein but as a % of the calories they are a poor source.

Exactly. Muscle grows during rest and recovery. If you over train you never give them time to repair and grow, they are in a constant state of breakdown.

Black coffee. First meal is typically at 11 am.

All depends on my macros. Don't have too many fat grams to spare now so only 1 yolk and 4 whites today. Saving the fat for things like ribeye steak.

Ditto

Been watching Breaking Bad on Netflix and actually watched this episode last night. OP - agree with you on Harry Potter

I plan my meals the night before so if isn't on the log for the day it doesn't get eaten!

7 days, with the 7th day mostly stretching/Yoga. Currently more cardio oriented workout for then next two months then primarily a lifting routine for 3 months after that.

My wife gained close to 50 with our first. She started retaining water like crazy the last week or so and put on 10 pounds. She gained 35 with the second, both weighed in at over 8 pounds.

Like others have said it's about personal preference. When I ate three meals a day with 2 decent snacks I was hungry constantly, I now just eat twice a day and fewer calories and the constant hunger pangs have gone.

I had never heard of the series until the Tom Cruise movie came out last year, then proceed to read all 17 books in the series over the last 5 months or so. Good stuff.

Second Son A short story by Lee Child. Waiting for his next Jack Reacher novel which is due to out 9/3!

Same exact problem. Even after a huge protein filled breakfast, 700 calories, I'd be hungry an hour or so later. I was always a breakfast eater until about 3 weeks ago. So now I Have a quest bar around 10 am, and the rest of my days calories are consumed between noon and 7. All eating every three hours did was make me…

Exactly. I make it for my wife every morning for breakfast because she says it keeps her full and it's easy to make. She hasn't lost a pound simply by eating it as the rest of her diet sucks. She doesn't have tons of energy, as the rest of her diet sucks! Not a magic bullet by any means.

Enjoy!

I don't really eat much fast food. The whole fits in your macros thing is fine but the majority of if lacks any micronutrients. You know, the vitamins and minerals we all need to survive. That being said, McDonalds' fries are just fantastic, but just google "year old happy meal". The burger and fries look almost the same…

If you get on their auto delivery program they give you a 10% discount. I get 2 boxes delivered every month, peanut butter and Chocolate Chip cookie dough.

I only eat white rice, but then again my wife is Chinese and I think my mother in law would laugh at the suggestion of brown rice. Her family eats tons of white rice daily and no one has diabetes or is overweight.
