Fitness	First Marathon!	Apr 02 2013 18:19 (UTC)	43
Original Post by jaredp01: Keep it simple - eat a plant based diet. Google Rich Roll and Scott Jurek and you'll see what I mean. There are also successful athletes that eat meat.
Foods	Eggs - Choles....	Feb 26 2013 21:49 (UTC)	3
Original Post by bombshellbarbie: oh gosh are you kidding me? i eat about six eggs a day. As im not really a meat type person. but i also consume 6 prescription level fish oil pills by my nutritionist who healed me from anorexia and bulimia. he is absolutely amazing, smart and american. i went from eating almost nothing to 2600 to 3000 calories a day. i maintain at 120 at 5'6. ive had tests done that my cholesterole is great. so if im alive eat well and a lot still thin then eat as many eggs as you want. you can also add in fish oil. just eat the darn things. Ah, so he's American.

The weight gain forum here is mostly for people getting over their eating disorders. But over at http://www.reddit.com/r/gainit they have a lot of good information to help you reach your weight goals.
Fitness	Toning up stomach?	Jan 25 2013 16:03 (UTC)	3
Original Post by trolldad: Abs are probably 90% diet. Drop your body fat% to see your abs. But she's already 123 pounds. Will changing her diet/eating less help her drop her body fat % and see her abs? I would continue the diet that you're on and do more strength training (full body strength exercises) with a small focus on ab work.
Foods	full fat versus nonfat yogurt debate	Jan 15 2013 20:15 (UTC)	2
Full fat, plain yogurt is probably the healthiest/most nutritious for you. Make sure it lists a single ingredient (besides the bacteria). But I don't practice what I preach as I always get the non-fat version since, with yogurt, I care a little more about the calories than the health.
Fitness	is running everyday dangerous?	Dec 10 2012 19:15 (UTC)	7
As long as you're healthy, running 18 miles a week doesn't sound dangerous at all.
Foods	Are Clif Bars and other enegery bars healthy for you?	Dec 10 2012 19:07 (UTC)	3
Might not be the healthiest things in the world, but they are pretty filling. If you post any food item that isn't a non-processed, whole food, the people here will attack it. Whether that's right or not is another topic.
Fitness	Bodybuilding-related Xmas gift ideas?	Nov 16 2012 17:34 (UTC)	20
Weight lifting shoes? Protein powder with a blender bottle?
Foods	FILLING low cal foods?	Nov 02 2012 14:21 (UTC)	3
Non-fat Greek yogurt usually gets me full when I'm a little hungry. And at 100 calories a pop, it's not that bad. I usually eat it at night when I start to feel hungry.
Fitness	Good "Running" Music Suggestions?	Nov 02 2012 14:06 (UTC)	5
Don't laugh, but I've been listening to Arnold Schwarzennaeger's book. That thing gets me super motivated and pumped up during my runs.
Fitness	cardio vs. strength training	Nov 02 2012 14:05 (UTC)	12
As everyone else has said, both cardio and strength training are great and beneficial. But if I had to guess, I think strength training is better. This isn't based on anything other than my own opinion. With that said, I hate strength training and love cardio. So I run a lot - going back to what amethystgirl said about the best exercise being hte one you enjoy.
Fitness	running vs elliptical	Oct 25 2012 14:10 (UTC)	2
I will just repeat what a couple others have said. As a future marine, you should go out there and run.
Fitness	will sit ups give my stomach bulky muscle?	Oct 19 2012 13:34 (UTC)	9
I've always compared doing 100 sit-ups to doing 100 arm curls with 10 pound dumbbells. If you can do 100 reps, it's probably not going to do much for muscle building. I might be wrong, but that's where my logic takes me.
Foods	no meat diets	Oct 05 2012 15:42 (UTC)	12
Original Post by carmenxox: You people are ridiculous. Eat your friggin beans if they are THAT important to you. I really don`t care enough to keep arguing about this. If you`re that set on eating a cheap starch, go for it. But I am not going to go out of my way to do the same. They're just having a discussion on whether or not beans are a good source of protein. Both sides of which has some merits. But anyways, the condescension is really appreciated. Thanks!

Original Post by harveyscott: You can take fruit, juice some green vegetables, energy drinks. These all are the good. Especially the energy drinks.
Weight Loss	Juice Cleanse?	Sep 11 2012 13:25 (UTC)	15
I guess it's good in a sense that you're not going to be eating highly processed food. But you can do the same kind of thing by eating a variety of whole foods instead of just drinking juice. Every now and then, especially after a weekend of overindulgence in alcohol, sugar, salt, and oil, I go on a 2-3 day "cleanse". Cleanse just being eating lots of fruits and vegetables and staying away from anything processed.
Foods	Green tea ~ good for you?	Sep 11 2012 13:17 (UTC)	22
Have you tried brewing iced green tea instead of hot? It goes down just like water. Also, I read somewhere that seeping tea in cold water releases more antioxidants than if you seeped it in hot water.
Fitness	I get bored at the gym	Sep 07 2012 19:35 (UTC)	9
I listen to books on tape or podcasts on topics of my personal interests. The time flew by as I listened to Life of Pi on audio.
Fitness	Protein Bars	Sep 07 2012 19:31 (UTC)	2
What about Nature's Own 100% Whole Wheat Bread? 1 slice is 50 calories and 4 grams of protein. If you eat 4 slices, that gives you the typical 200 calories in a protein bar with 16 grams of protein. Bread is just as convenient as a protein bar. And a LOT cheaper, too! Or just use 1-2 slices and add in a bit of peanut/almond butter. Perfect blend of protein, fat, and carbs for your post-workout recovery.
Foods	Healthy eating on a budget?	Sep 07 2012 17:19 (UTC)	7
Beans, beans, the magical fruit! The more you eat, the more you toot! Any recipe with beans - chili, hummus, beans & rice, etc.
