that might be a little slower than i was thinking of, but thank you. i was running around 40 miles a week, with at least on 8+ mile run, coupled with 100 miles of cycling. However i will take the advice in that plan about brisk walking at the end of the week, even when im back up to running every day. Thanks!

Rotfl...the study abstract itself says it doesn't prove causation. Correlation is an entirely different thing. Maybe the people who drink diet soda are more obese to begin with from bad eating habits or they likely wouldn't have been drinking the diet soda to reduce calories.

Actually most of Momma Cow's Milk is casein, i think like 80%, with the other 20% whey...

what are these myths you speak of?

Net calories has no bearing on total macro intake, that is gross calories. Any the adaquate protein argument goes between 1g/kg and 1g/lb...so for a 200lb person that is between 100-200g of protein, or 400-800 gross protein calories. edit...except there is nothing gross about protein, i love it, my favorite macro! :D

with adequate protein and resistance training the muscle loss will be minimal, especially if this is say 3 days out of 7 each week with a much bigger deficit

imho I don't think net matters as long as you are getting enough gross calories. The goal is a deficit afterall. I have found the more i eat the bigger deficit i can feel fine with too. So its much easier to burn 4500 calories in a day when i eat 3000, than it is to burn 3000 on a day when i eat 2000...even with less net,…

i usually buy skinless chicken breast, which does have, according to usda, and it's nutritional label, right around 160 for 5 ounces. I mean if you are eating chicken because it's low fat/cal, i'd say you are usaully getting boneless skinless...but not everyone

yeah i didn't follow that subtracting rmr part either...

If your body has nutrients and calories available, it will use those before going into its storage, so no it doesn't matter 100 cals is 100 cals. Only surplus calories get stored, so if you ate 1500 extra calories of p, f, or c, the excess would get stored. I can see possibly insulin spiking and nutrient timing make a…

Broscience...that being said, however, i love my post-workout protein!

when i am on the gym i dont burn much over my bmr, but then im usually napping!

i likes me fasted endurance cardio, but take it slow, and take some bcaas while you do it, i have found it very beneficial to fat loss

For everyone having PB difficulties...check out PB2...it's AWESOME!!!! Especially in protein shakes, or on low cal tortillas with sugar-free preserves!

if you have to ask, get bigger pecs and it wont matter

i like...

OMG if they nuke this thread, that would be SOOOO FUNNY!

One of my old FAVs the doctor prescribed!

It's okay, you are new here, we will let this slide, good luck!

i swear by this. You really can sprinkle it right on strawberries, soooo good! And just to add, none are EVIL!!! lol

his thanksgiving dinner? i'll take time, effort, and learning to manage my health for the rest of my life as opposed to a quick fix...at least this way i'm learning Keep up the hard work, life will get in the way, but you (whomever the you was he was talking to) can do this! And we are here for support and advice!

working out late at night keeps me up too, sometimes until 2-3am, not a big fan when i can avoid it. But getting up at 5am to work out is killer hard too.

I lost a few pounds of my thanksgiving weight gain by drinking a couple cups of coffee!

It is important to note that KFC IS NOT the best tasting chicken ever!
