ectogemia Posted April 29, 2013 Share Posted April 29, 2013 I think those would have to be pretty easy to make. Get a bag of Doritos, put some fish or whatever on it and melt some cheese on top. It's going to be more than 2 bucks but it would have to be better for you. After taking a quick look at Taco Bell's ingredient list I was surprised to see Silicon Dioxide in some of the main ingredients. Processing Aid?! Who are they trying to fool here. The best part is they tried to deny it and say they never put sand in their food, then they listed it on the ingredients list!! If you are going to lie you have to commit to it!http://www.tacobell.com/nutrition/ingredientstatement There, that should help you! Read some of that and see if you still want anything from them. Read those ingredients, Brandon No more Taco Bell, man. Lmao @ the empanadas and potatoes. If you ever want to see the paragon of frankenfoods modern food chemists have come up with, check out packaged "potatoes." I have no fucking idea how they can legally call those potatoes. Probably through the same logic used by Congress to label pizza a vegetable. WHY Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Melbu Frahma Posted April 29, 2013 Share Posted April 29, 2013 Eh, I figured what the heck and joined. I'm mostly working on upper body (arms and pectoral) strength, while trying to gain weight. Unfortunately, I really don't have much time, so my workouts comprise mostly of pushups and pullups. So yeah. You may see me in here from time to time.

ectogemia Posted April 30, 2013 Share Posted April 30, 2013 Time for a 90 day check-in. So on day 1, I was weak and 143 lbs. On day 90, I'm significantly less weak and 170 lbs. My major lifts (all of these are 3x5): squats = 250 lbs deadlifts = 305 lbs bench = 165 lbs (my chest is weak, get off me ) overhead barbell press = 120 lbs dips = body weight + 75 lbs chin-ups = body weight + 25 lbs pull-ups = body weight x 9 reps on top set (I'll start weighting this and doing 3x5 once I hit 10 reps on my top set) I'm damn proud of these results And damn sick of eating this much food. But the skinny little MAGBody you all saw back in DC is no more, and that is an awesome feeling! My goal is to deadlift OA into oblivion.

Rukunetsu Posted April 30, 2013 Share Posted April 30, 2013 Thanks to this group, I'm learning a thing or two. Planning on getting a bike and doing some riding...as it's the only exercise I think I'll actually enjoy doing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XPRTNovice Posted April 30, 2013 Share Posted April 30, 2013 I kind of got tired of putting in my data into Fitocracy, but maybe I'll start up again. Also, I work out in the mornings and the computers at work have a browser that's too old to input stuff into Fitocracy, so by the end of the day I've forgotten about it. I've been majorly slacking lately. I try to get to the gym 4 times and week and do something physical (running, parkour, hiking) at least 1 other time a week, but I haven't worked out since Saturday. Also, working out in the mornings means I have a mental battle every day when the alarm goes off. Do I get extra sleep, or do I go work out? Sometimes I win, sometimes I lose...

XPRTNovice Posted April 30, 2013 Share Posted April 30, 2013 Never. I used to say the same thing before my bosses shifted my schedule. If I work out in the afternoons, now, I'm there at peak time and my day wouldn't really end until 6:30. That, to me, is much worse than being at the gym at 6:15 every morning but being totally done at 5. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thin Crust Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 (edited) K guys, I'm back. Still haven't lost any weight, but I've found some carbs that somehow sneaked into my diet. At work, I would put sliced almonds, cherry tomatoes and sunflower seeds on my salads. All three of which have 6 carbs per serving. At home I would put regular tomatoes and french fried onions on my salads. I knew about the 3 grams in the onions, but that was the only one I would indulge in. However, I know I said I could eat the same thing everyday but I guess I was wrong. I'm going to need to learn the whole bit about good carbs and bad carbs. The regiment I'm on has lost it's appeal. I'm sure this has already been talked about before, so can someone link me to the post? Edited May 2, 2013 by Thin Crust Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garpocalypse Posted May 3, 2013 Share Posted May 3, 2013 Hey guys, I just found the ultimate workout. Try this one out and see how far you can get through it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XPRTNovice Posted May 3, 2013 Share Posted May 3, 2013 I meant to post this the other day, but have we traded weightlifting/workout plans yet? I'm getting really bored with mine. But, then again, I am always really bored in the gym. I go tell people, "Hey, I'm going to go someplace and pick heavy things up, but then I'm going to put them back down in the same place they came from. I'm going to repeat that for an hour and then take a shower. Later!" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm going to repeat that for an hour and then take a shower. Later!" No exchanging of plans is going to help that. If you're bored it's all because your mind is not in the right spot. You have to find something that keeps you motivated. Take a day or two a week to do an improvised workout, listen to music that stimulates beta brainwaves (fight or flight, kill or be killed kinda stuff) and watch some ghetto street fights on youtube. That usually does it for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soul Splint Posted May 3, 2013 Share Posted May 3, 2013 I dunno man, having new workout routines gives me extra giddy-up for at least two weeks, especially when I throw in exercises that I haven't tried before or have had limited experience with. I'll typically stick to a weekly routine for about 4-5 weeks before changing it up. Sure the muscle confusion is important, but it's also always a breath of fresh air. I usually kill the first week of a new plan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thin Crust Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 Just bought some pork ribs. Haven't had this in a long time. Now to find a no-carb barbecue sauce. Here's one called "Scott's Barbecue Sauce" Looks really runny. Don't think it will be that good. Here let me have a taste of it.............Yuck! *throws bbq sauce away* Don't ever use Scott's.

Soul Splint Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 I don't think I could do a no-carb BBQ sauce. I have way too much love for Sweet Baby Ray's. Maybe you could get a decently low-carb sauce and add in some mustard, balsamic vinegar, and other stuff to keep a strong taste without so much sugar and other carbs.

XPRTNovice Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 My wife made a fantastic paleo bbq sauce a few months ago and she is very carb conscious. I'll see if I can dig up the recipe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thin Crust Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 (edited) Hmm, that can't be carb free because it uses 3 whole tomatoes in the mix. I mean, look at the nutrition info for tomatoes. I just went to a more speciality store and found this. It sure isn't sweet baby rays, but it's not horrible either. I'll try this one today. And I'm willing to check out pretty much anything else in the future too. Edited May 7, 2013 by Thin Crust Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
