  • I second the almond milk suggestion. Super healthy and super tasty!
  • Rest em. You don't build muscles by working out, you destroy them... it's the rest in between that builds the muscle fibers back up.

  • Man, you've all been amazing!!! For me it hasn't been so much what other people see when they look at my food journal, but what I see (or don't) that bothers me.

The trick to the formula (the reason why you won't just lose 2 lbs by not eating for 2 days) is that it takes a certain amount of food to keep your metabolism high... If your body…
  • I spent some time working as a shoe salesman at Sports Authority and can make a few recommendations... As far as brands go, I've become a sworn Asics guy. Even though you aren't planning on running, I would still purchase a running shoe... the main reason being the amount of support and cushioning in them... Asics uses…
