Round two!
Hello all! Well, I'm back at it again. My last presence here was pretty quiet and not noticeable at all. I was on a great setup, and doing fantastic on meeting my goals, etc. Lost weight fast, and enjoyed my 6 to 7 day a week workout. Then I had a foot problem, (I have very flat feet) and well... Excuse, blah blah blah,…

Anyone mess with the egg white's in a carton? I dont mind separating by hand, but dont really have anything to do with the left over yolk. Was just curious what people's thoughts were on the egg whites in a carton? Thanks!

Well, that was interesting...
I decided to take it easy this weekend and go all crazy with my food stuffs. I did this knowing that first thing Monday I would have a set workout plan (intense IMO), and probably a more personalized diet plan. So I figured I'd go nuts and eat outside of the box, and when I did, I went WAY over board. This is not a post…

Eating routine
I've tried the eating 9 times a day thing, and I've tried eating once a day, to the normal 3 times a day. Are the really any benefits to a bunch during the day? I've read that it boosts your metabolism, but wanted to see what peoples thoughts were. For me, I enjoy the 3 times per day thing. The snaking all the dang time…

Cooking meat stuff
Probably another noob question, but should I weigh meats before or after their cooked for logging? I know resturaunts weigh food prior to cooking, but I wasn't sure how that works best for logging my intake.

When to add?
It's early for me, but I want to be prepared for when the time comes. When in the gym, and my normal weight lifting has become to easy, when do I add weights? I typically do 3 sets of 10 at my target weights, then 1 set of 10 on a much lower weight as a cool down. My guess is when the target weights become easy, should I…

Left vs Right
So, I havent been to the Gym since maybe high school. I've been doing 2 weeks now of upper body, and am going really really light. Just trying to retrain these "muscles" of the motions. In doing so, I have found that my left arm is ridiculously weaker than my right. I broke my left arm when I was in high school, and have…

Cheat Day
So, I have some general questions about "The Cheat Day". I've been sticking pretty well with my deficit of calories, and dropping the weight. I'm really enjoying this, and excited about each day. I've gone to the extreme of eating something I used to eat, when my exercise allowed calories are high, and control it with a…

Exercise calories?
Noob question here, but should I be using my exercise calories if I'm trying to lose weight? I have them displayed, and use them to "treat" myself if I've killed it at the gym (on occasion). I'm new at this so the ultra strict diet is going well, but every now and then I want to have a tiny bit of normal food. Thoughts?…
