Yeah he has just started lifting, so I suspect this is correct. I'll pass it on.

Thanks for actually responding in an informative manner (:

Just following the rules in the "losing fat for noobs part 2 guide" and worrying about cals + protein

Yep, we've got digital scales to make sure everything is recorded accurately.

Is it possible his metabolism is just a bit slower?

Well we don't eat the same food every day, but heres an example of today.

ME

B = 150g fat free yoghurt blended with 150g berries

233 C + 17.8 P

L = 400g mixed beans + 40g cheese + 1/2 cup...

Yes this is what I was thinking. I think I've just come to think of it as an exact scienece, but obviously everybody is different. Just hard to tell him to keep at it whilst I'm losing weight doing...

Congrats on 'negging' me, what an incredibly mature way to express your opinions. Oh how I heart the internet.

Anybody got any ideas because I'm SO confused?

Ok, I will tell him.

But surely that would effect his weight loss?

Anyone?!

He is 174lb with a BF of around 17%....so to eat 0.8 gram of protein for every lb of lbm = 115 gram of protein!


I'm pretty certain he's not miscounting because like I said, we're eating the same...

Hi,

Quick question! My brother and I are both doing a cut in order to get a lower BF% before putting on some muscle.

We're eating the same sort of food but different amounts (I am 5"0 116lb he...

Think I might jump aboard this bandwagon if it's ok (: well done everyone so far!

I'm 5"1, and I'm cutting before I pack on a little bit of muscle. Started 27th march weighing 121lbs, so far have...

...LOL

This is a joke, right?

Then it's a case of working out whether you want to bulk or cut.

I dont monitor my carbs intake, just calories and my protein. I have done this for one week and have lost 3lbs, only 6 more to go until I can focus on strength. Woohoo!

I've followed this plan and have lost 3 pounds this week, yippeee! Only 6 more to go now!

Yeah according to CDC it's 35.7% of adults that are obese.

Yeah but the problem I would say is connected to diet more so than exercise. Some of the worse cases are eating upwards of 5000 cals a day, you'd have to do an awful lot of "walking to the cafe" to...

Any time I've been in France I've noticed that they seem to eat LITTLE amounts though, could have something to do with it. But agreed, they are a very slim nation compared to USA/UK etc.

Yeah America is at the worse levels of obesity, but the rest of the west isn't far behind. It's so depressing.

Edit: It's pretty disgusting the words some of you use to describe women.
