Ive had to ban myself from getting nuts. I just can't stop eating them. I was downing a half kg bag before dinner. For the calories they are I don't find them filling at all.
I find I need a carb in their to help fill me up, rice, potatoes, pasta. Something like that.
1000 calories of potato is a lot more filling for me than a 1000 calories of nuts.
lol what's every body obsession with been shredded as f***???
i don't get it, never will
unless your doing a comp
why would you want to put your body under stress
whats every body obsession with calories??
where the good old days where eating was for your health
numbers don't matter
its the way the food break down
that's why they say fats carbs protein every meal
and with out carbs it's pointless
Obsession with calories. Because I like to eat a lot. If I just eat what I want I'll eat way too much and end up fat and I'd rather not be fat. Counting calories is the lie detector, forcing you to stick to your limit.

That's one way to look at it but it's not a healthy way to go about it,, in the psychological sense I mean.
Anyone who's been around long enough and I'm sure you have Bazza, should know how much and what to put in his pie hole without resorting to calorie counting.
Think about, you want to that all your life?
again, it comes down to choice, my co-author, a good bb seldom counts, but I will for rest of my life. I don't take much time doing so, because I know calories for food of top of my head. When I cook 200gm rice for family, half of which I eat, I know 350 calories and 5 gm of protein. same when I ocaasionally eat fast food chains. I just know what I am eating.

Thats quite a big performance drop. I dont generally expect any performance drop or real muscle loss losing that kind of weight in my experience. For someone already really lean probably something negative to come from it i guess. 18-20% bf down to say 14 or 15% i expect no decrease if done correctly.
My best weight cut i went from ~100 down to 93 and still gained on all lifts.
Dexa (for whats it worth) said 8kg fat decrease, 1kg LBM gain...
mate, when you are 54 an already skinny, and doing a lot of cardio, it is pretty hard to keep all strength. You will find this out when you get older. I also made a conscious decision to get much fitter which hardly helps strength aims when dieting.
2011, dieted 3kg and my bench went up, but I was not doing any legs or cardio.
I don't think it's "choices" I think we all function differently.
just like out thoughts, how we we listen, build muscle, we all process this differently, we have no choice how we do this, it's the same how we process the food we eat, and the taste of it.
