Time to get rid of some fat this week - starting with dialing it back from my diet. Dropping the calories by 500 a day in an effort to lose a pound this week; if only someone would remind me...

Also, kicking the intensity up at the gym to avoid needing breast reduction surgery in January.

It's all fun and games until my wife's comments border sexual harassment/cat-calling. I feel violated.

You wanted someone to remind you.

Okay - safe word: 'donut-hole' - It just amazes me that you'd have any body fat as much as you work out. Weight vs Fat? Such a ... quandary.

Reminder, lower fats < 20%, working for me.

I don't know, maybe the sugar coated sugar you call cereal could be dialed back a tad. Just sprinkle it on your oatmeal. 😘

I believe in you  
05 Nov 19 by member: sbflow
Yes... I assumed you wrote that based on my post yesterday.  
05 Nov 19 by member: davidsprincess
I did it for you! 😉 
05 Nov 19 by member: davidsprincess
@chrisw77: Thank you! Isn't Agnes the cutest 😊

Chris - did you just squeal? 
05 Nov 19 by member: FullaBella
@Erq - that's the question I have a LOT - why all the sugar. But he told me he needs the sugar to do the lifting & I'm like totally baffled by all of it. I get that you can't get that many carbs in a 'food' for the energy but I just get confused by what seems counter intuitive.

Those were your words, Just sayin' .. That's how to do it! Once it drifts past 20-21% (for me, anyhow) is when I start noticing the fluffiness increasing steadily.

We'll see you in court. Sugar Squared, indeed!! 😤😘

Maybe someone could invent a patch, like those nicotine patches, except no nicotine, just pure glucose, caffeine, protein ;) I'd probably buy that. 
05 Nov 19 by member: rgaDawg
::: Sign me up for the patch!::: I do (donuthole) appreciate you explaining this. I grew up during the period of being told 'sugar stores as fat, Carbs convert to sugar which eventually converts to fat' so it is a hard lesson learned trying to skew my thinking.

that is a lot of work 
05 Nov 19 by member: tweeah
Your wifey!!! Haha! I love her!! 😂😂😂😂 
05 Nov 19 by member: wifey9707
Yeah, and that thinking is wrong. You know what converts to fat the easiest and fastest? Fat. *mindblown*

A calorie goal is what we're after. It really doesn't matter where the fat and carb macros are at as long as you're hitting your protein and calories. Sure, more carbs than fats is preferable for body composition, but the difference would be negligible as long as it doesn't affect your workouts and your protein intake.
