From what I've read, it's more about calorie intake for gaining weight, than just worrying about hitting a certain goal of carbs.

I tend now to just get in an area of hitting my macros. I try and not be under a certain point, and not go over a certain point as well. It has eased my mind, and allowed me to enjoy my food again....

Bump.

How bout some chicken, tuna, or lean beef instead of a protein bar?? Protein bars are good for on the run, but when you can eat, why eat that??

Wouldn't milk be counterproductive, since it gels in the stomach and causes you to feel fuller longer?? Wouldn't you want to eat without using milk, so you get hungrier faster, and your brain...

I think of my muscles like that plant on Little Shop of Horrors.

"Feed me Seymour!!"

I have seen nutritional timing discussed on here many times, and see mixed responses. My question is directed more towards glycogen stored in the muscles, and how many carbs it takes to equal the...

I've have slowed down on most of my supplements now. Food is just hard to beat.

Chicken and Tuna.

LOVE my lean beef though. I can do much more with it, than Chicken or Tuna.

Watermelon is one of the highest GI fruits you can get. Apples are low, and so are bananas, if that's what you are really shooting for.

After listening to most on here, carbs are carbs, so I try...

I would suggest taking a break for about a week and eating less. Kinda letting your body heal up and resetting your metabolism a little. Might help, might not.

As long as your hitting your calorie goal and your carb/protein/fat ratio you set, you will be fine. Stick with something for at least 2 months, and if you don't see the results you are looking for...

Most definitely water weight, IMO.

Set goals, and hit them. That's the only way to get where you want to go.

Same goes with nutrition, set goals and hit them. Complex or simple, from what I have read on here in the past few...

Kitchen Aid Immersion Blender, FTW!!

Cuts are great, as long as you intake enough to help your muscles repair. If not, you will remain sore for some time after.

I want to help my wife replace the coffee in the morning, with a drink that is much better for her, and yet still gives her energy as well. What have some of you done to replace this??

Oh no, that's not what I meant at all. I was talking about getting the glycogen out for energy. Maybe I screwed up and didn't make that clear.

That is interesting how it spares all of the muscles tissue doing this. So, I guess it's like putting a dry sponge on a wet one, for a simple comparison??

Thank you, BTW!!

Ok, so, where in muscles is it stored, and how is muscle tissue not broken down to get to it?? I would much rather be educated on something, that to just have animated gifs posted about what I am...
