Agreed. I'll just drink another protein shake somwhere.

You do not want to starve yourself skinny. It never turns out well. Tweak your intake so you're losing between 1-2 lbs per week and call it good.

It seems to me that the vast majority of diet or exercise plans provide far too few calories to support muscle growth and fat burning in a full grown man. Bodybuilders have the right idea and it can be adapted successfully to the rest of us on a less extreme scale.

This involves math.

Kidding..kidding.

I've been tracking my food and training for a half marathon (I started 8 weeks ago not being able to run for 2 minutes - I can now run 11 miles). 40 pounds gone so far. 50 more to go.
Awesome Laura!

Doesn't your body need fuel first thing in the morning to get going, therefore making this the wrong thing to be doing?

I'm carrying a few extra pounds (3-5) but should come off soon when I get into the full racing season.

If I don't give my body fuel, it will feed off of itself.

And often will feed off muscle, and that would be counter productive.

Perhaps, but I'm in consistently going up in weight, I don't see how this is possible. Besides, I feed my body right after I work out with a protein shake.

Muscle weighs more than fat. You went from being nothing, with some fat coverings, to developing some muscle tone while burning fat.
