Fantastic advices.
John, do you eat more carbo (higher than protein) in your main meal after a workout (not the post-recovery one... the one after that)?
Anyway, just finished with my website and I'm deciding on whether to show you guys it or not.
/me flipping a coin...
Interesting thing about BFL is that a lot of successful dieting plans seem to follow its general idea - that's because in fact IT follows the same idea as successful weight loss plans: continual (or mostly continual) vigilance of food intake combined with excercise. It's a sensible proven way to go about it. By all accounts BFL works quite well because it simply spells out plainly what a person needs to do to lose weight and gain muscle.Originally posted by: ParagonX
It looks like your doing a program very similar to Body for Life. I'm planning on starting that next week. This week i've been going to the gym and using my three free personal trainer sessions to get acquanted with the equipment/layout of the gym before i start to go all out with the program.
Right now i'm 21 years old, 5'6", and sitting at about 155 pounds. Not too overweight but definitly have room for improvement.
BTW, congrats to you on your progress, your site has is really helping me get motivated to get started. I also noticed on your site your in Orlando, not too far from me ( living in Atlamonte Springs)

I've got a couple of friends who did it recently and had great success. I've only read it a little here and there but something I liked was the cheat day idea. I've been incorporating those into what I'm doing since the end of last year and it really works well. I used to be a maniac and watch everything but I've come to realize I just like beer/pizza/junk too much to be perfect day in and day out and the cheat day lets me keep it in perspective because I know that it's only several days until I can go at it again with what I love

I'm trying to work on a grocery & menu list/plan what are some good resources to figure out portion sizes and such? I am totally clueless on how to plan a menu. Should I go buy this Body For Life book or is the information readily available online?
Edit: I just quit smoking about a month ago (school got me down and I caved) and am worried about hacking up a lung on the bike/stair climber. Anyone else have experience with exercising and quitting smoking?
If it's drugs he got fairly low quality ones. He did a good job but it seems within the realm of possibility - whereas drugs will put you in another league altogether. He'd be bigger!Originally posted by: Rob9874
Looks like 'roids to me. Any time I see thinning hair on big guys, that throws up a red flag. His hair looks much thinner in the after pics.

Oh man, today has just been too funny. On one hand a bunch of meathead steroid users are saying I'm pathetic, skinny, a waif and a prune, and on the other hand Rob here thinks I'm "a big guy" on 'roids because I bleached my hair and got a shorter cut. Rob, maybe you and the gear-heads should get together and discuss this glaring dichotomy? Wow, I feel so controversial.Originally posted by: Rob9874 Looks like 'roids to me.

Question: When you take a protein shake in the evening before bed do you add fat like Udo's oil, Flax or you just drink pure protein?

Good job! Your site has inspired me to finally do this the right way.
I have a pretty odd question. I see that you are taking 3 metamucil tablets a day, and I think I know what they are for. I have what they call a "stretched stomach" and I really get a bulge right after eating and it reduces noticeably after a trip to the porcelain throne. I have thought about using something like metamucil in the morning to "take care of business" better and thus have a more flat belly when start my day. Is my theory on why you use metamucil correct? Thanks!
