How do competitive eaters stay so thin?!
I'm really intrigued by competitive eaters and how they stay so thin. They only do events once or twice a month but still....they take in anywhere between 10,000 and 30,000 (if not more). And here i am after some weekends of overeating by maybe 1000 trying to undo damage done lol. That alone takes a couple days to a week…

Bobo bars...
I just tried the peanut butter and jelly flavored one and it was just ok. I like the soft texture, but I'm wondering how the other flavors are like the maple pecan and also peanut butter! Let me know if they're worth trying, theyre quite expensive for horrible macros but sometimes i just dont care about macros and just the…

Do you overeat or starve when depressed?
I know a lot of people lose their appetite when theyre depressed. I tend to binge eat, watch tv, get lazy and sleep when I’m sad/depressed. I’m wondering how many of you do this, or just not eat at all....? I hate to admit, but I wish I was on the other side of the spectrum.

ladies and leggings question...
Might be too much of a TMI question....BUT I'm just curious, do you wear underwear with your leggings?! I don't wear leggings when I workout, I've always just worn loose sweats or baggy pants. I like the way leggings look but I'm too paranoid about them being see through while doing squats or underwear lines.

Is a protein bar & shake everyday ok?
I know getting protein through real food is best but bars and shakes are so convenient for an extra 40 grams per day. Was wondering if having a protein bar AND a shake everyday would be ok or is that too many processed protein snacks?

Love running but scared to lose muscle...
Lately, I've cut down on lifting and started running more just because I find it more enjoyable. I used to lift 4 times a week and now more like twice a week. (one upper body day and one lower body day) I run 4 miles about 3 times a week on the days I don't lift. I'm only getting about .6-.8 grams/body weight of protein…

Anyone else have breakfast for dinner?
I'm wondering if I'm the only one who has breakfast for dinner every night! Either I'll have an egg wrap with spinach and cheese or oatmeal with protein powder another night. I think I can live on breakfast foods. Probably because I fast until lunch so I never really get to eat breakfast during the week (due to work…

Pes Select Protein powder
I've been seeing a lot of this type of protein powder on social media. Has anyone on here tried this brand? People always advertise and give a discount code so i'm not sure if they just get a cut and if it's a pyramid scheme or if it's an actual good tasting powder.

One leg pistol squats
These have become a regular on leg day for me, but I was wondering if these work more quads or glutes. I tend to feel them in my quads more. They're harder than they look!

"Use within 7 days" question
I notice specifically almond milk and egg white cartons say "use within 7 days of opening" do all of you really go by that or do you just keep it until you finish it? I've had my almond milk and egg whites for 2 weeks now....

Chipotle salad burrito bowl leftovers question.
I was wondering, if i were to eat half at lunch and save the other half for dinner or the next day, would you microwave it or eat it cold? Lets say lettuce burrito bowl with rice beans, chicken, guacamole, etc. I never know if people actually heat up lettuce burrito bowls or not. I feel like guac, salsa and lettuce don't…

Measured 1 serving Cinnamon Toast Crunch
This is the saddest portion of cereal. Literally 5 spoonfuls! Thinking back when I was a teenager, I must've eaten 7-800 cals worth of cereal each morning. Not sure how I stayed so thin! Lol who on here really eats just 1 serving of cereal at a time?!

How do you wear leggings and squat?!
So I've always been one to wear regular loose workout pants but would like to wear leggings in the summer. My only problem is that I get paranoid about squatting while wearing leggings because I've seen women squat, and i get a full on view of their butt! Like it stretches and becomes see through. I tried on a pair in the…

Do eggwhite cartons really go bad after a week?

If weight loss is NOT linear, why does it seem weight gain is?
Anyone else notice when they gain that it is linear? Because i did in the past. Does it have to do with water weight never going back down if you're always at a caloric surplus? What have been your experiences with "real" weight gain compared to weight loss linearity?

Fit bit while in the car for 3 hours a day...
I had a Fitbit years ago but stopped using it because it would add steps to my day while I was in the car and was not accurate. My commute to work is an hour and a half so that equals 3 hours in the car a day...since they've come out with newer and improved ones, did they fix this issue? Is there a pause button at least?…

Upper/lower body split question
For those who lift an upper body day and a lower body day, how many exercises of each upper body part do you do? I know there's different parts of each muscle and all that but if I want to hit back, bis, shoulders, chest and tris in a day how would you do it without spending hours in the gym? Is one lift or exercise per…

Is losing weight mostly psychological?
I'm wondering everyone's thoughts on this. I'm very big into mindset changes along with permanent habit and lifestyle changes. In my opinion, losing weight and even maintaining the lost weight is mostly psychological than anything else. I dont think people realize how much internal mindset affects the whole process and…

Freezing shredded chicken breasts
Do any of you do this? I just did a large batch of crockpot plain shredded chicken breasts, separated them into 6 oz portions in ziplock bags (I eat 3 oz portions at a time) and put them straight in the freezer. Once you put a frozen portion in the fridge how long is it good for? And also how long is the shredded chicken…
