You only have to worry about the four fat solubles, and even then it is pretty much moot Vitamin K, while fat soluble, doesn´t get stored in the body well and won´t build up. Your liver and kidneys take care of it. Vitamin A - Two things save you. First is that most of us get our Vitamin A in the form of Beta Carotene from…

This! You should really count everything as water, especially most fruits which are almost entirely water. However, do a sanity check with things with caffeine and alcohol because in most cases you will have a net water loss.

The amount of time it takes carbs to become energy depends on what type of carbs they are, and what they are eaten with. For instance, drinking water with a meal speeds up how quickly you get energy from the foods, eating soluble fiber as part of a meal will slow it down and spread it out over a longer period of time. So…

For cardio, do as much as you can. For strength or muscle gain, skip at least a day with each muscle group and try not to work a muscle group that feels fatigued. You can do 6days per week of strength training if you rotate muscle groups and only work 2 muscle groups each day. For instance. Monday and Thursday are Chest…

It is a good question. In my opinion it should be answered by how close you are to your target weight. The further you are from your target weight, the more you should just do the things you enjoy doing because those are the things you are going to end up doing more of. At that point, anything you do is going to benefit…

It is actually ´bromath´ that is the problem. The science is generally correct, but people extrapolated it out and did some really bad math to arrive at the numbers that get passed around.

Sorry, you lost me. Almost the entirety of medicine and physiology is based around probabilities of something happening. If you smoke 2 packs of cigarettes per day, it does not mean you will get lung cancer and not everyone who gets lung cancer was a smoker. If you do not consume calories early in the day, it may lead to…

I read through most of this thread.. The only thing I have to say is I have the Humane Society on speed-dial. ´OMG, it was the most horrible thing ever, it made me want to vomit, I had to brush my teeth to get the wretched taste out of my mouth......... even the dog wouldn´t eat it´... For me, I totally fail at any type of…

8. Make losing weight easy and enjoyable. If it's too much work, you won't continue. This may be the most important one but I find it easy so I'm putting it last. Weight loss should never be a bitter pill to swallow. It should be about exploration. Experiment and find healthy foods you like, don´t force yourself to eat…

If the gym is empty, you don´t need a spotter. Just let your right arm go down a little, and when the weights fall off be ready for the bar to go flying the other way. The real secret though is to be ready to run to a window and look outside when the staff comes running in.. pretend it was something from outside.

Had a wings place near my university. They would sell 50 wings for $10. I would eat that and a pitcher of beer during 1 football game. when I was a kid, I would take an entire pack of oreos, crush them in a big glass (maybe 20 oz) and then pour milk into it... during saturday morning cartoons.

Starving a fever is a myth. Gatorade is better than water if you have diarrhea and vomiting. Simple way to remember good foods is BRAT Bananas Rice Applesauce Toast ( crackers is the same thing) Avoid dairy and and anything oily or fatty. Be very careful about your handwashing/transfer and what you are touching. Like your…

Anyone else not able to see that word written without singing the song?

I have the opposite philosophy. If I can´t get it naturally in easy to find foods, I don´t need it. the problem is that so much of this stuff is unregulated and untested on a large scale that you only know there is a problem after there is a HUGE problem. Without doing any research, I am just going to say this. Anything…

Hilarious. almost exactly what I do, but way less and more sauce. I´m lucky in that I live in a hot place, so don´t have to worry about salt as much as when I was in the USA.

buffalo wings and pizza... I never stop until it is all gone.

The other thing to keep in mind is how you feel mentally. One of the first signs of too big of a calorie deficit are things like headaches, problems concentrating, memory issues, confusion and irritability. if you go see a doctor, one of the first things he is going to ask you is about your boss and wife. Those two people…

Yeah, forget about speed, concentrating on losing about a 1lb per week in a way that is sustainable for a loooong time and that gives you a quality of life that makes you happy. Forget about the word ´dieting´ instead concentrate on improving the way you live by making meaningful and sustainable changes to your diet.
-
I guess I disagree with many people here. You should eat calorie dense foods for breakfast, even if you aren´t hungry. It is a mistake to wait until you are hungry to eat, because that can lead to eating too fast, and over-eating. This isn´t about weight-loss, but your body needs calories throughout the day and you will…

you need to write a book. You look incredible

@Courtney beautiful eyes

As far as weight loss, there is no difference. But your lack of calories when you should be most active can make you feel tired and unmotivated.
