Seriously, i remember when i hadn't yet turned 25 and i KNEW EVERYTHING but two days of your constant criticism and debunking is getting RIDICULOUS. why dont you save your graduate research for graduate school, and let this social forum on the internet dedicated to supporting people in their weight loss journey. Or maybe…

i didn't even think of the bike...even when i was there...much better idea, will def do that next time. And i must say, it was a little easier going down stairs after the gym then before i left, i'm going to have to remember this!

well, went to the gym and hopped on an arc trainer at a low intensity for 45 min, set it at level 3 out of 10, kept my HR around 115-120, and my legs don't really feel much better, but they don't feel any worse...guess i will see how it goes in the am Thanks for the motivation all!

i can't remember the last time i only did 30min lol...maybe warming up haha...

Well i'm a party animal, does that make it more relevant? :p

i would 100% go for a jog if it wasnt dark and in the 40s here...can't do treadmills anymore, hate the ones at my new gym, no bounce to the platform at all. and i have a roller, i HATE HATE HATE IT. HATE IT. I've tried sooooo hard to use it, but i ju'tst cant. i wish.

and, in my PERSONAL EXPERIENCE, just for me, i see beneficial effects to IF over other strategies, so i am proof enough for myself that there is some truth to these claims for my individual situation which certainly not be the same situation as in any one other individual, but, once again, it works better for me and it…

Sorry, i thought you were asking me to support my IF/insulin response/fat oxidation comment...i mean i guess using more stored fat wouldn't support losing fat, but it seems to me it does...

and just for the heck of it... Beneficial effects of intermittent fasting and caloric restriction on the cardiovascular and cerebrovascular system Mark P. Mattsonemail, Ruiqian Wan Laboratory of Neurosciences, National Institute on Aging Intramural Research Program, Baltimore, MD 21224, USA DOI:…

Well, i IF, so i might be in the opposite camp now, as over the years i too have read studies which indicate the potential health benefits however i can't recall the specific places i've seen them. I also know i personally enjoy larger meals, so IF works for me...and with the amount of alcohol i drink, i don't think any…

Care to refute it? After you eat, insulin and fatty acids are elevated. You are in the fed state and there's zero fat burning going on. Your body is relying completely on glucose oxidation during the hours following the meal. One way of measuring this is via the respiratory quotient (RQ). An RQ of 1.0 denotes pure…

can someone PLEASE put a link to the cancer thread, i can't find it and i wanna read!!!

without reading everything...if you add in a little extra activity, you can always eat more...

Critical thinking is really a good skill

Mashed cauliflower and shiritaki noodles...no thank you, i'll take copious amounts of BACON now please!!

Intermittent fasting is just one example of how meal timing can play a role, as levels of insulin and glucose in the blood can play an important part in the body's preferred source of fuel and nutrient use. While there are very specific conditions where this will present some advantage to fat loss, the timing of meals with…

Ignore it...it's going to be wildly inaccurate at minimum

It is definitely not irrelevant, however there are so many other issues which are more important. Meal timing is one adjustment to make when you have reached a plateau, but not the only one that can make changes.

It's great to have bigger, more filling meals! And even dessert!

There is a group on here for IF, http://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/group/49-intermittent-fasting. Check it out! lots of information, and a good place to get the opinion of others who IF.

Yeah a little bit reactionary i suppose, not really what its for

Whoa? 1400...i thought it was like 800 (200g * 4cal) ill have to look into it a little more

well, down 10lbs in one day, so it went pretty good!

Why do you need the 220? isn't the 15 a gps watch too? the 220 is cool, but seems like you dont need to switch watches for that activity?

i stopped drinking diet sodas last week and gained fifteen pounds... ...maybe i shouldn't have replaced all the diet sodas with beer?!?

a quote directly from that article too, which inclines me to believe it was never even read... "the only completely non-toxic ingredients are the onion powder, sodium bicarbonate, and the garlic powder."

MY THOUGHTS EXACTLY!!!

Try CALF COMPRESSION SLEEVES i had shin splints when i started running and these were a lifesaver!
