I have the opposite philosophy. I do plan out what I am going to eat, in my experience, I have always achieved greater success when plan things out instead of trying to do it on the fly. Because I...

Yep, bulking up is not an excuse to eat excessively, and a surplus of calories even from healthy foods can cause fat increase.

As far as I know, it is difficult to grow muscle w/o fat growth. Even...

That article is bunk! I'm type A+ and I handle animal protein perfectly fine! Indeed I prefer meat over vegetables and have use strict discipline to fitness to force myself to get enough vegetables.

LOL, whatever works for you.

I prefer to enjoy the culinary delights of the world once in a while. And it did not affect my weight loss.



Fortunately I have to discipline to limit myself to...

I can't say that I did. I mean I did still eat junk until the day I started, but not a "special meal". But I suppose I could consider my cheat days "special meals".

The principles of losing weight are not that complicated; applying them can be for many people though. One problem with fad diets is they have such restrictive eating limitations that are difficult...

Yeah, I did not understand what you were asking.

There is also no "fat memory" in that particular case either. But since you added extra muscle, cutting back to 8% would be easier on that basis.

Contentment is the enemy of progress. Discontentment compells me to push harder and break new personal records.

No, not really. Ha, if it did, weight loss would be much harder than it is already. So, nope, when we burn off a portion of fat, unless we eat in a surplus, it will stay off.

Might even be a little better, cause the milk is diluted with water.

Protein is the one macro we absolutely need. Not only muscle, but every tissue and organ in our bodies is built from protein. Indeed, the primary reason protein is leeched from our muscles is for...

Nothing I suppose, if that's what you prefer.

Sometimes, taking time off is what the doc ordered. When mental or physical burnout sets in, its better to take a week off and chill out. Of course this does not mean one binges or eats like no...

Hmmm, have not had my "crisis" yet. But then, I feel so good I am actually looking forward to my big 4-0. Probably the most off-the-wall thing I did recently was to out of the blue decide to enroll...

You are a funny dude!

Pork is not as bad in fat content as it used to be thanks to breeding of leaner pigs, but I would not equate it to chicken just yet.

I've always been a firm believer we can offset the effects of age, you proved once again that is true! Thanks!

Awesome job man! You've done amazing!

Well, "conventional wisdom", particularly from mainstream media sources, is sadly lacking when it comes to weight loss or fitness. Based on my own. personal weight loss experience of my first six...

Yeah - I noticed the correlation. When I sweat from a kickass workout, my fat level went down. When I sweat from a scorching hot day or being in the sauna, it stays the same. Kind of obvious to...
