You really shouldn't visit the Weight Loss forum then. Compared to these posts, people there are starving themselves. I have no idea how people can eat only 1300 calories a day. My calorie intake varies from 2-4k.

Tomorrow I have a community meeting in the city after work, so it will probably be a second rest day. I've been feeling a little crispy and inexplicably slow, so the extra rest day is probably a good idea. Wednesday, NROLW and treadmill intervals.

LUNCH-pastrami+cheddar cheese sandwich, fage 2%, strawberries, Kudos snickers bar
SNACK-granola w/trail mix+cup of milk

damn...I can't survive on what you guys are eating....but it does depend on activity level...here it is 8:15 in the morning, and Ive already taken in over 1000 calories...lol...I'm such a pig.
But hey...as long as my abs are bulging, and my fat and cholesterol intake is low....i guess I'm good to go.
EDDIE-i often think the same as you BUT-
im guessing youre a guy 1st of all, rt, so im a girl, ok, woman, lol, so thats already a slight caloric diff.
plus, activity levels varies greatly btwn ppl, im not very active while others are running 5miles/day, something i dont see myself eveer doing, so another diff.
I hear you...hey you know what...there was an article about the hardest foods to digest, and Chicken nuggets were one of them...along with (believe it or not) ice cream...broccoli...and some other stuff I can remember.
hmm, why hard to digest? i have stomach probs so im interested. they were actually veggie patch veggie nuggets, but same thing...
I have no Idea...even the Ice cream thing stunned me....there were some other things there that made me say WOW, because they were such common foods.
well you know what, i like nuggets+ice cream so thats that! lol
i honestly dont understand "clean eating" and the other related things and to me, nuggets, fihsticks, ice cream every so often, is just fine+dandy!
I eat a lot of veggies, and tons of chicken and fish, but I like burgers and stuff too...my body is still healthy...I'm not going to give up the stuff I love, but I will watch how much of it I eat, and I think that's the key.
agreed, i make sure to have a salad almost every night w/dinner and i eat fruit about 3/day, but i also eat cookies everyday, bagels+PB and more for a big bfast. the key is moderation i suppose but i feel better eating more rather than less. my goal is not to stay super super slim so i suppose that is ok then.
oh, how do you make the chicken+fish? i mean i hate cooking so do you just do a geaorge foreman grill and buy seperate portions? do you make a lot and then freeze it? i just hate being in the kitchen! lol
Lol…no…I marinate the chicken with seasoning, and sometimes teriyaki sauce over night, then I have a cooking stone that I use…it’s natural stone, and I cook the chicken on that. Same thing with the fish…I cook all meat on the stone, because it makes everything so so so juicy. I’ve never tasted anything so good until I started using this stone to cook on.

The medium Bar Pan (Stone)
lol, oh, bit of prep involved. is that pan diff from a regular pan, i mean stone? id just line a pan w/ tinfoil and put it in the oven or make in a pan on the stove.
so much different...the stone cooks it in some different natural way, and the juices are unbelievable...so is the taste. but you just can't wash the stone with soap...only hot water, and the scraper.
Well since I started this thread I guess I should actually post in it. :)
