Haven't taken the bike out nearly enough this season. Just moved up to the Aurora area. Anyone around? CBR600 but I don't do things that risk my license.

I've read some places that advocate getting calories from clean foods, and other say it doesn't matter where your calories come from. What do you guys think about that?

I didn't realize it was that high. A couple calculators I used all said around the same as you, 3100ish calories to maintain weight. I guess I have a much higher deficit than I thought. Must be a contributing factor to the fatigue.

22, 6', 255lbs. I try to hit around 1500 to 1800 calories a day. I must admit, I'm a sucker for seeing results and I've had a couple days well below 1500 calories. I use myfitnesspal on the iPhone. It says my daily goal for carbs is 242g and protein is 74g. Seems very low. I normally consume at...

What do I need to do to keep energy levels up throughout the day? I'm hitting the gym everyday and eating at about a 600 calorie deficit which is made up of mainly protein. Is it carbs that give us energy? (Is that a stupid question?) I'm finding it hard to focus at work, which is not an...

You might actually be right. To be honest, I've been piling parts for a new dream desktop for a couple months and just assumed it was the same. You'd think now a days you'd be able to build your own laptop. Maybe not...

Think about building your own. Sit down with your computer guy and get all the parts (there really aren't that many) listed. Find the cheapest prices online and order them. Lots of tutorials on how to assemble a laptop, and worst comes to worst, you take it in and let someone put it all together...

I appreciate the replies. I'm looking for a lifestyle change, I can't do the counting calories/carbs thing. I did a year at college with my buddies going every night to the gym, and I remember feeling physically, emotionally and mentally better than I do now. I like the small meals idea, and it...

Thanks for another good year IXFe. Didn't ride as much as I would have liked, but it was still a great summer.

Just signed up tonight for the gym - time to make a change. The focus is on weight loss and cardio for now. Anybody have any recommended reads for choosing food? I want to eat clean, lots of fruits and raw vegetables, but will that give me enough energy to get through work? I'm not sure how to...

See a Ducati monster (I think) almost every day rain or shine on the 5:45am or 6:00am ferry across to the island airport. No waiting for the ferry because its full, not bad!

my brain pretty much just exploded after reading that ;)

That narrows it down to 200 locations... what city?

Hint for the new tag?

Its not that far, grab it after work. Or just tell them you're not feeling well and grab it now :cool:
