Fat bombs?
I've been hearing a lot about these fat bombs but am not really sure how people are using them. Are they just a fat "supplement" or can they actually be more or less a meal?

Controlled carbups
Does anyone here on a standard ketogenic diet (i.e. 99.9% of the time you eat low carb and are in ketosis) have a controlled refeed/carb up day? I'm not talking about an "oops, I couldn't help myself and ate lots" meal, but a more-or-less planned day where you eat mostly carbs and/or whatever you want, to a degree. I ask…

I started with doing just cardio and light weightlifting in the gym to get back into a reasonable state of fitness before attempting the P90 program, but even so I've noticed that I have continuing muscle/tendon soreness where it hurts to walk many many days after…

Curtailing metabolism drops/dieting side effects
I'm sure that's the magic question that everyone wants answered. Short background: I lost about 60 pounds 10 years ago but ended up with 4+ years of depression, feeling cold all the time, and constant weakness/fatigue and I finally feel brave enough to lose weight again. Are there any reliable, if not 100% effective ways…
