Your body can burn off fat for energy and convert it and the food in your diet to protein to build muscle with the exception of the essential amino acids. No need for you to stuff yourself full of...

Yes you can. You're body is using your fat for fuel and can also convert that fat to proteins to build muscle. I experienced this just recently and get a chuckle when people repeat that you can't...

You're not running enough to cause your legs to decrease in size. Your loss of body fat is the cause of your shrinking legs.

Agree with the three above posts!

Come on now Joseph. You weren't the kid whose mom told him he couldn't watch TV and when she found you on the couch with the TV blasting your excuse was you weren't watching TV just listening to it...

Low carbs and low fat works for me as well. I've got plenty of energy and have made gains both in the weight room and running. Of course if I listened to the advice of everyone on this board I...

I'm getting 24 grams of whey protein for 130 calories. My primary goal has been to lose weight and now to maintain. I look carefully at the calorie to protein ratio of foods and I'm going to have...

I dealt with that issue about 15 years ago. I simply cut out all exercises that irritated my elbow till it healed. You should still be able to work out other body parts in the mean time. The...

Of course there is nothing wrong with fats and of course your body needs them. The study said it was a high protein/high fat diet low in carbs. The study doesn't specify where these proteins or...

Definitely see a Dr. My youngest son dealt constipation at times during his teenage years. At age 21 he was diagnosed with Colon Cancer. He had tumor over 2 inches long. You never know what...

It suggest that I am disciplined and have set personal goals for myself. Anything else you want to throw out there since you seem to know it all?

Don't let it get to you. I started running in March and I think it was the end of April that I put in my longest effort to that date. Four miles in an hour and fifteen minutes. I felt good about...

I'm not missing your point at all. What you are suggesting however is that you somehow know something about me that you haven't got a clue about. You are perceiving yourself to be far wiser then...

You are correct. There is a huge difference between a binge and having a McDonalds in place of your regular meal. It comes down to making a few healthy choices though and not over doing it. I...

What it means is I don't want to be fat and I don't worship food! Running is excellent for your health. I'm nearly 50 and the last thing I need is to put weight on and be unhealthy. I've been...

What in the world is that suppose to mean? I prefer to stay lean and athletic. I have no intention of gaining so much mass that I lose my neck. We don't all have the same goals guys and for me...

I'm guessing from what I notice in my area that speed is average to slightly above average. I run anywhere between 4 and 10 miles at a pace of 6.5 to 7.5 miles an hour depending on terrain,...

Cheat meal? Never! I increase my cardio and burn off the extra calories. Cheat on your diet and you cheat yourself.

I've made this a couple of times over the last week or two and I have to give two thumbs up to it! Great tasting with a good calorie to protein ratio for a dessert.

I saw this on a news report yesterday. High carb diets have their risks as well. The high protein diet they referred to was also a high fat diet. They didn't mention what foods this protein came...
