90% of bodybuilders eat this way. The real question is if you are getting the proper levels in. Calories right? Macros right?

Personally I deal with SAD and ADD. I dons high quality fish oil in the AM and get 1g DHA and about 650md EPA. AGCG from supplement or drinking green tea as well as 5-htp helps a lot. If I decide to eat something, I go hard on protein. Hugs and I hope it gets better!

You haven't a clue what you are talking about...... You can detox by simply drinking water and slowly replacing processed food with more natural food.

Terrible idea. While all the above mentioned super foods have merit, your body will still rob amino acids to supply itself with energy. Muscle maintenance in fat loss programs is the most important factor and should be held as top priority. 40 days VLCD you'd lose a considerable amount of muscle mass. If you are they type…

Love you!!!!

TDEE is a moving target and its impossible to nail it down due to humans being open systems. You are already pretty lean! start at 1700 and slowly reverse diet adding 50cals a day till you start seeing weight gain on the scale. Stop adding calories and stay at that rate for 2 weeks. If you measure and the weight gain came…

forget scale weight and shoot for strength gains from this point on. Eat at maintenance. Lift 3-4x a week hitting all body parts. Sleep 7-9 hours a night. Take a high quality fish oil supplement and get at least 1g DHA and apps 650mg EPA. PM if you need additional help. the last 10 will come off but you'll need to eat more…

Hows your sleep? Hows your monthly cycles? Are you taking any high quality fish oil? On my phone for the rest of the day, if you need insight into my questions, PM.

Somewhat true but depends really on the amount of fat on the body. A great way to test your leptin sensitivity is to carb backload at night. Start your day off with high quality proteins and fats with high fibre veg. Lunch should be the same. Fruit as a snack midday with some walnuts. Dinner can be anything but shoot for…

My biggest tip for weight loss is to forget weight loss altogether! Change your lifestyle so you are healthy and strong. Fat loss will come naturally! Adjust sleep for 7-9 hours a night. Studies show a 30% decrease in insulin sensitivity in people who slew 6hrs or less. Take high quality fish oil and get AT LEAST 1G DHA…

Props! The OP was actually one of my first girls for IPOARM so thanks for reposting!

When I went to Target and upgraded all my nice medium shirts with XXL tee shirts and size 36 pants......

Can I not what? I live in Baltimore. It's rated one of the fattest cities. So if everyone is nice and lean in your corner of the world then thats great, but here......

Absolutely!!!!!! Love you MP!!!!!!! ;D

Adaptation takes 3+ weeks so using the word "destroy" is a bit harsh. I think Dr Layne Norton says for every month of LCD you should double that in maintenance to "recover". Some people diet for years and they come out of it a little leaner....and unable to have kids. Yikes!!!! How about we all eat in good health and lift…

*facepalm* Christ it's early! You are correct!

I have programs that use this type of adaptation to its advantage for fat loss and muscle gain. Patience and a little elbow grease and you'll get strong and lean!

I'm just simply passing on analysis from Dr Brad Shoenfeld and Alan Aragon http://www.jissn.com/content/pdf/1550-2783-10-53.pdf TL/DR version of this paper is that the slight advantage of timing isn't really necessary, but a larger jump in hypertrophy was seen between 1g/#LBW vs 1.7g. My friend Carl in a interview with Dr…

I see a ton of people saying to eat more. I'll follow up with "Eat more protein!" Calculate 1.7g per pound of Lean Mass. Spread your protein out during the day into 30g doses. http://suppversity.blogspot.com/2014/01/it-does-matter-how-you-spread-your.html Why? Having the added amino acids circulating during the day will…

PM me for a more detailed account as to why its better to establish BASE TDEE then cut from that point. I'll not give away anymore info that I usually get paid for. For you, i'll help for free. I'll explain why fat loss is more important that weight loss and how it effects you down the road. You can then decide to pull the…

Cant wait to see what motorized wheelchair she buys when she's in her late 60s....... Eat right Lift weights Sleep Wash, rinse and repeat!

1000 steps a day will surely have you riding a motorized wheelchair when you are 60.... First simply add walking to your day. If you use fitness blender, do it maybe 3 days a week for strength then the rest should simply be walking. Just walk. Everywhere! Eat at full moderate TDEE till you maintain your weight, then you'll…

I know what you're talking about! His work with Dr Brad Shoenfeld is amazing BTW.

I never said 20% reduction from TDEE would result in 1lb loss of fat. In order to get true TDEE we would need to be a fully closed system and the equation would span 20 pages with a huge margin for error. Heres my point for this entire thread. OP has trouble eating "so many calories". I've had clients with the same issue.…
