So how'd the first week go?

It's like waiting for a good movie to come out :D Not that you need it but I imagine it would be quite hard to give up once you get going now that there is so much attention on your cut! So maybe that's a good thing. As for BFFM and everything else. I don't think it is a this vs that type...

Although I have decided to give the forum a chance and be a little less confrontational I do still think that cardio is beneficial for many even if just for the caloric advantage. The problem with just taking some extra calories out of a person's diet to get the same effect as the cardio is that...

When I first started, I actually considered taping my cooking sessions as a comedy show for youtube. I'm telling ya, it would've been a hit.

Yeah right. There are so many more steps than that! You make it sound overly-simplistic.

I had basically never cooked until I started BFFM. So this was coming from ground zero and initially it was an extreme disaster. I remember the first couple months I would screw things up so bad I could hardly choke the meals down. I mean we are talking some gross stuff - at least the way I...

Oh man, there is probably nothing that ticks off 23 year olds more than the age card. In fairness, you did pull it out first though, Yanick. Now in my wise old age of 26, this is what I would always say when people pulled this on me: Take a look around at the world. Now what was this you were...

It is actually kind of a relief to hear you say that. Alcohol was the first area where I deviated from the strict BFFM diet. It was last year around this time (yes I did this diet before but threw my back out and so stopped). I was going to go on a float ride with my friends and if you've ever...

Uh no. That sticky was last posted to one month ago. The oldest it gets is two years ago. Still what would be the point of keeping stickies around if they were no longer relevent? Your logic fails. As for questioning Venuto, I have. If I didn't question Venuto to some degree, I wouldn't even...

Yeah, that's exactly what I do. You must spy on me or something :rolleyes:

lol, well I would listen to her on that then. When loss of LBM enters the picture, that's where I draw the line. But I know what you mean about it being hard to give it up. It is weird not wanting to give up something you hate. Ha! I have already mastered the drunk part but not the married...

Hmmm. Are you sure it didn't read 18% lean instead? Easy to confuse the two :p

One last thing before I'm off. I do not want to give the impression that I am totally stuck on this ratio as you did mention that. Modifying the ratio to address hunger sounds to me like part of the solution. That would be modifying your diet to fix the problem. Even in BFFM they say that you...

To be fair, I probably did get a little confrontational at the post where I realized you were advocating people go on 50%+ deficits as at that point, I had lost all faith that this forum was anything different than the screwed up forums I had come across previously. Since that post I have come...

Well since I'm being mocked/degraded with the whole "parachuted in looking for 'family'" crap I thought it was necessary to point out what I pointed out. You're right though, I probably should have just ignored it.

lol. Actually, my initial intent was just to ask a question about HIIT. I wasn't totally set on this forum and rather just thought it looked promising at first glance. I have questions from time to time and was looking for a forum to occasionally ask a question like this and as a matter of...

I have to admit I am initially quite skeptical of Lyle mostly because of the huge deficit he recommends for PSMF. I will admit that it sounds the most logical of any crash diet I've seen but I am just automatically skeptical of anyone recommending that kind of a deficit. Of course if you...

The example diet I described in about 6 lines is not meant to be the end all, be all, pinnacle of perfection. It is an example though of what people have commonly used that have not had hunger problems doing cardio. For different people it might be modified. Now I'm curious, of the people you...

Yeah on the inner circle forum (Venuto's pay forum) the question would come up a lot: How do I lose that last couple percent? When I was on the forum I never really zoned in on those posts because it seemed like it would be ages before I would be at that point. Wish I would have read them now...

Yeah, I was pretty strict in the beginning too. I have loosened it up a bit though. BFFM shows the some of the cleanest and safest routes but you'd go crazy trying to do the "perfect" diet forever.
