I have the complete opposite philosphy. I believe that you should jump right into the diet. My reasoning is simple, one can always do something tomorrow, but can they do it today too. I'ld rather jump into a cold pool, then let my ball shrivel slowly (and painfully). As far as your diet...

Well, for anyone who wants to have some flavor in their food its definitely more expensive. When I was fat, I used to drink every weekend and eat 4x the amount of food I eat now and would survive off $150 a week. Now I spend more than $200 a week and find myself running out of money by the...

I tend to get these binges as well and to be honest you have to figure out what foods are causing them, and eliminate those foods. Like w/ me, if I don't have a somewhat balanced meal, in other words if my fat/carb intake is too high at once, I tend to start thinking my diet is ruined for the...

There's a lot of little things you can do. Heres a couple of ideas, get lean hot dogs use whole wheat buns have oatmeal for breakfast bring along some tuna instead of using deli meats instead of munch on chips bring peanuts

Personally, I think you should just go out and have some for a weekend. If your not inclined to do so, then are you trying to cut or bulk?

The muscle milk bars are REALLY good, not so good for you though. Personally, I simply like zone bars (any flavor). They have a nice ratio and are pretty good.

It took me a year to 12 months to lose 80 lbs. I didn't go on a diet though, I just changed my lifestyle and eating habits. If you need any advice/help let me know.

I was reading somewhere that your body can only digest about 40 grams at a time. I imagine this varies w/ each person.

I'm not saying they shouldn't be allowed to do what they want to their body, but at that age, its difficult to be fully educated on what they are doing to their body.

Nice... I'll definitely check out the book. I appreciate the help.

Its like 2500 cals a day...

My diet can be really solid. On days that I am going to "start" my bulking, I will usually eat. 8am 1 Cup Oats 1 Scoop Whey 425 Calories w/ 35 grams protein 11am Muscle Milk Shake w/ water 30minutes prior to working out. 1 pm (right after workout) Package of tuna w/ mustard and relish on 2...

I'm trying to gauge how others have overcome this. I used to weigh 240 lbs with at least 35% BF. Now I weigh 155 lbs w/ 10% BF. Its not like I lost the weight overnight or anything, it took me about a little less than a year to lose it. How do you overcome the mentality that what you are...
