No I never do Only count cardio

You are trying to be all clever and junk.

Exercise is the CO part of CICO. It is part of weight loss. Many people early in the fitness journey can't exercise enough to burn off many calories. It is a blend of both. Eat less and do more. Those answers that seem to be extreme all or nothing type answers are often not true for most people. There is no feelings part…

It seems to be an Internet forum term. I joined a gym and had a trainer for a year before joining MFP. Never heard that term, newbie gains. Muscles grow when challenged and fed, then you sleep so they can rebuild Just keep working them and watch your calorie intake. It is easy to over eat when lifting and thinking we need…

That is great!! Awesome job!!

Are you doing a solid 60 minutes of cardio to burn off your glycogen? Burning it out of your system works. If you eat sugar, burn it off

Many people have a hormone dump around 3-4 am It contributes to the morning number I took a bedtime half metformin. My dr said not to worry so much about occasional rises as consistently exercising to burn off my blood glucose He had me on a 2 year plan to reverse my newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes It has worked so far 5.4…

I like more afternoon and evening meals Kind of opposite of what you often hear It works for me I am not aware of anything other than folklore stating meal timing matters aside of loading for endurance exercises. Just eat Make the timing work for you

Cross your arms and place your hands on your shoulders Not behind your head or neck It takes lots of crunches to do good And don't lay flat in the reps. Like 50 left right and center non stop while never going flat back If that does not work, find a different abdominal exercise more suited to your body.

Sleep Blood tests Strength in the gym Speed on the bike Speed running Size and for of clothes Lots of things to notice In 90 days if you are eating right and working hard it should all show some improvement Maybe using a tape measure would be a better measure of success than feeling yourself. Hard to quantify a "feel"

Where I often ride A 90 mile paved over train track system For bikes and joggers Love it!

And some stir fry

Hello! I am Working my way out of T2. Had a two year period that started out with a BG of 300+ on a dr visit. Did lots of diet and exercise and A1C was 5.4 in March I'm supposed to keep on and monitor. Supposedly always will be able to get it back. I'm just enjoying life and trying to turn back the clock a bit I love the…

Dark chocolate 85% every morning with coffee It is good for my heart and yummy

Repairs Interesting concept I never thought of the cumulative damage.

It takes a new life Not a new diet

Remove the opportunity to mess up Best advice ever

It seems I'm 1/2 pound down in 2 days I want to eat light and see if it is still gone come morning

Nutiva is at Publix I get the Whole Foods brand too I use just enough, not lots It does awesome frying scallops., the slightly sweet taste blends perfectly when searing

Carbs are a great high octane fuel. I eat a spike before a challenging workout. They are not a bad food or anything for most people. Some, like me are a bit more insulin resistant. But I can still eat them and burn them up. I just manage them more closely to actual high energy needs. To your question.., I think it does not…

I really don't care what a flaky study says. People do great things all the time Have some faith In yourself.

Talk with your team trainer and coaching staff. Their job is to know that They probably know the newest ideas You may end up sharing those with us. I would be interested to hear what they say. It sounds like triathlete nutrition is what you are searching for.

If you buy fresh veggies and meats, have a little fresh fruit, you are in control of your food intake. If you want more or less fat or sugar, you can season that in or use a gravy as calorie carrier. Pretty easy to control your own world that way.

Triathalon training on low carb I have not read the whole thing I do agree with much of it I had 9% of my food from veggie carbs and still had a fast 20 mile ride. Only stopped cuz it was getting dark I think the food production industry has really soaked our nation in misinformation on the supposed need for so many carbs…

If you're having s tough day, hang in there! Help is on the way! Super Kitten!!

I had no butt Months of stiff leg deadlifts and kettle bell swings I can't say that any longer You can absolutely get a round mound.

Sweet taters be all yummy and junk. Cinnamon added to it. A little butter. Makes for a good carb dense meal before a long cardio event It is just fuel for the machine

I love it Makes a great peanutbutter cup shake Goes on lots of yummy desert things that are lower calorie The chocolate added variety is good too Amazon is my friend. A 1 pound PB2 is an $8 add on purchase now. Hard to beat as a protein add on.

Endurance Bikes are very popular! Almost a race bike but a bit more comfy. I have a Giant Defy endurance bike. They are good and not expensive. I have a Fuji Altimara carbon fiber race type bike. A little more laid down lighter and faster. And a few $ more. It is a perfect bike for me. Get your bike fitted to you with…

Oh yeah Love love love it!!!! Now I can have protein shakes with mild and PB2 Chocolate protein, fairlife, PB2 and I have a peanut butter cup shake!!
