Sheldon is correct, you are wrong.

How does 90kcal make a healthy meal? How is it proven than taking all those micronutrients in a vitamin mix effective, when we know vitamins from non-whole food sources are not?
-
TL:DR Normal toxins/not toxins and natural/added sugar posts. Some twinkie diet stuff with someone claiming people using it to refute toxicity or caloric restriction for weight loss improving health - were actually saying twinkie only diet is a healthy sustainable plan. For about six pages, it was filled with someone…

My quip wasn't an attack on your apprehension as a new exerciser, it was more a 'Ah! No wonder you're finding swings easy!' (Not that they aren't hard to learn how to do even with a light 'bell). Any condescension sensed was at those people that make these light weights, preying on new exerciser's lack of confidence.…
-
You would, most in MLM would and they are victims too. Why don't you look into becoming a group exercise instructor? They make about £20 a class here.
-
It would depend on how easy you handle your current weight as to whether the jump is appropriate or not. If swings aren't challenging, something is wrong. ETA - OK, I'm back. I've converted those weights into meaningful terms and I've realised the issue. You've got a paperweight not a kettlebell. Go 26lb, or even 35lbs.…

Er YouTube? Is that different from a dvd? I'm a qualified and registered fitness professional, personal trainer with certification in advanced resistance training - testing, prescription and coaching. So obviously I don't believe in beachbody junk. Just my professional opinion. Have you tried to sell this poor person some…
-
Neither. I think you summed it up in your own post. They're both the same junk and pricey. You're on a calorie counting website with forum support and a logging app. Why would you give up on learning about good food, health and nutrition by just drinking a vitamin pill cocktail? ETA - Hmmmm... OP has been on for years.…

Best bang for your buck is not buying something that gets replaced later. Get a bar now. Get some plates. You can always get more plates as you need them, the bar doesn't ever become useless (get a good bar). Dvds are great for what they are, but you can also take the time to learn about becoming stronger using more…

So many topics to cover: Stop blaming sugar, you don't know what sugar is (Dr Lustig of you're reading) - it's essential for all known life in the universe. You can't detox from it. Those doing 'detoxes' that actually just mean eating less crap - good :) Brandolin - you're doing it wrong. It's not known as special…

Yeah, I said qualified, not certified. She can deliver verbatim, workouts designed and choreographed by someone else? Amazing. No wonder her nutritional advice also comes prepackaged.

Science only lasted for one reply :(
-
Why is OK to use the discovery of others and the study of science to; Power our homes Propel our cars Defy gravity and fly internationally Save our lives with paramedics Allow us to communicate and share ideas globally via this very forum But not to decide if a juice cleanse works or not?
-
If they then gain qualifications in nutrition or exercise, how could they in good conscience continue selling people Beachbody?
-
The clue is in the name. They're not coaches. They're not qualified to be coaches. They're unqualified sales victims.
-
I'm O-. Give blood. Have two (I think) Type O albums. But unfortunately I have a basic grasp of nutrition and common sense. So I'm out.
-
Define 'processed foods'. Planting, growing, harvesting, freezing, chopping, preparing, cooking, chewing - these are all forms of processing.
-
I think the vast majority of experts would agree this is a decent approach (I don't know what Kaizen is). Unfortunately, the blog says you are sabotaging your training and recovery :(
-
That's much more reasonable and scientifically accurate. Perhaps MFP should get you to write these blogs.

A lot of geeks are. But then they get into fitness, lose weight and become fitness geeks, weight lifting geeks, running geeks, nutrition geeks... you get the picture.
-
I would dump them all and just make sure I'm hitting my protein target for the day. Unless I was trying to time peak creatine saturation with an event. Or I was having trouble getting through a workout on a very rare occasion and I was bored with coffee (you never know?). Or, some how, I started to think BCAAs were…
-
You'll have less money to spend on indulgent food.
-
That counts as post workout. If you had a shake it would still be in your stomach when you're eating dinner anyway. People that get so caught up in nutrient timing usually forget high school biology.
-
No, you'll have protein later anyway.
-
OK, we're straying here, drastically to the point of prescribing levels of folic acid (when she may need far more depending on her history) and getting her to avoid potentially the wrong things. I deliberately didn't go into further detail, because I want the OP to see her G.P. - which I'm sure she will do anyway. Just out…
-
It's possible a mistake was made by the nurse, or that this is a terrible, bumbling individual - we'll never know what actually happened. I didn't say what did or didn't happen, I just said what I thought was more likely. Given the fact that a fitness professional has run to a paper to embarrass her free health service and…
-
It doesn't, once again I don't believe that's what happened. The nurse would be working completely outside of their training/education/standards of practice if they told anybody that.
-
Pfft! You expect me to read the whole thing? Still, that supports my hypothesis as to WHY she is having a medical issue, and that the nurse's advice was more likely correct, and bmi has little to do with it.
