7 Days into L.Mcdonalds Rapid Fat Loss
So, you may or may not have heard of Lyle Mcdonald's Rapid Fat Loss Program. Either way, it's meant to go for 11-12 days for category 1. I'm currently at around 11:30pm on my 7th day. Guess what? I'm hating it. Sure, the results are good. Hell, they're great. I'm visibly leaner already. But I feel absolutely terrible, and…

Best weightloss calculator I've EVER come across.
Stumbled across this not long ago. If you use it properly, it is bloody ace. I put in all my stats from 9 weeks ago when I started my cut, then put in my rest day intake and workout day intake that I've followed over that time, as well as my macro percentages, then let it work it's magic to plot out the theoretical…

Who says cottage cheese needs to be boring?
So, I've recently been doing a bit of experimenting with foods, in particular pancakes and cakes... I've discovered this awesome form of delishiousness in the shape of a pancake. A low carb, low fat, high protein form of delishiousness. The main ingredients: Single White - Egg, 1 Egg Barambah Organics - Quark, 100 g Health…

How to drop down to sub 10% bodyfat - Help wanted.
So, I need some help. Been on a cut for 12 weeks now. I'm 6kg down and at what I think is around 12-13% bodyfat, down from 19ish%. Feels like I've stalled out a little bit the past couple of weeks, even though the weight is still going down at my expected rate of 0.45kg-0.5kg/week. Mirror-wise, there hasn't been a whole…

Post work out shakes made me bigger! Or did they...?
Was it the protein shake after a workout that helped me gain muscle? Surely it was the creatine doses! Or perhaps it was my actual weights routine. Then again, it could've been the fact that I eat 5-6 big meals a day... I'd like to have a little chat about something called 'Correlation versus Causation' Because nothing…

RFL straight after bulk, returning to bulking aftewards?
So in Lyle Mcdonald's RFL handbook, he speaks of returning to maintenance or dieting straight after you complete the program... However, does anyone have any thoughts/prior experience in regard to me doing the categorie-1 11-12 day RFL after 8 weeks of bulking, then returning straight back into the bulk afterwards?

My friend needs friends!
G'day g'day! I know a girl on here that needs a bit of encouragement and some more friends to help her along on her journey. She only started out a week ago and is struggling to do this by herself, and has 25kg to reach her goal weight. Was hoping that the kind people here on MFP would give her an add and give her some…

Creatine qualms!
So, I've got my hands on some creatine and crumbling under the massive amounts of information out there... Is it necessary to do 'loading' with 20g creatine monohydrate/day for 5 days and then go to the maintenance of 5g/day? Anyone with personal experience? (Currently bulking, eating 3,200-3,400cals a day with 50% carbs,…

Aiming to continue bulking for around 6 months until September/October, after which I'll begin a cut for the summer. Hopefully get upto around 85kg and cut down to about 9-10% BF. I'll support you,…

Is it wrong...
Is it wrong that I don't want to date a girl, because her name reminds me of the ex-girlfriend that cheated on me, and I can't stand even thinking about her? First names (well, name - they both have the same first name) changed for privacy purposes, but 'names' are Jennifer Rose Jennifer Gardiner I can't be only one who…

So...anyone else on a cut?
How long have you been on it? Having progress? I'm currently 3 weeks in and 2.5kgs down, of which around .5kg was water-weight after I stopped eating ridiculous amounts of sodium with my 3,500cal a day bulk. 1 inch gone from my waist, 1.25" gone from my biceps (unflexed) while they remain at the same measurement they were…

Hit a plateau? No idea what to do?
http://fitnesswithnatalie.blogspot.com.au/2011/05/most-dreaded-word-in-weight-loss.html I'd recommend you have a read through this. Some slight bits of misinformation (such as building muscle while on a calorie deficit) but overall it's a reasonably good article. Enjoy!

Anyone have any articles (Information heavy is a +, preferably no bulls*** reviews) handy that'll help give me an idea of how to go about it properly? Thanks.

What's your resting heart-rate?
Just got bored and decided to measure my resting heart rate - came out at 52 which I'm surprised and very happy with :) What's yours? (Sit/lie down on the couch and relax for 10-15 before measuring it to get an accurate reading)

308 days logging and counting
Hey :) So I've been here a while now and had reached my goal weight of 70kg, but now I'm aiming for a different goal of being healthy, getting really fit and getting a muscular, aesthetic body :) Looking for other people who log daily - whether aiming to lose weight or gain muscle, for support and friendship I guess :)
