Check out eatright.org. If your insurance covers a register dietitian, invest in them if it is just a co-pay. 85% of your body is from diet. They will be able to calculate your body needs. Forgot the fad diets. 80-10-10 is stupid and dangerous. Taking in so much fruit will upset your stomach and the acid from the fruit could ruin your teeth. Maybe you need to take a probiotic because you have gut bacteria or maybe you are retaining water. As far as workouts the best workout for your body type is circuit training. Weights and cardio mixed in together. So lets say you do a set of squats, superset with jump squats or kettlebell swings. Maybe you can do thrusters, superset with 45 sec jump rope. somewhere in the middle of the workout sprint tabata on the treadmill 20 sec sprint/ 10 rest for 10 sets. Moderate cardio makes you more hungry. Interval training suppresses your appetite so you are take hungry after the workout.

congrats on passing the exam. Are you working in the fitness industry. Is the exam mostly the assessments such as feet turn out, knees in. Overactive and unactivated muscles. There are some sections so confusing in regards of the exercises. One section an exercise can be considered a stabilization and the next a strength or power. It depends on plyometrics or balance.

Did you see Aston Kutcher ended up in the hospital for following a high fruit diet http://www.usatoday.com/story/life/movies/2013/01/26/ashton-kutcher-steve-jobs-sundance/1866023/

Do you notice a flatter stomach with 1 or 2 fruits a day. Are you allowed to eat nuts on your diet.

Hey Jungle, I was wondering what happened to you. Congrats on going back to competing. Jillian Michaels and a lot of fitness and nutrient talk shows on Sirius radio are totally against cross fit and paleo diet. However most would agree the crossfit community is positive in regards of motivating each other and building friendships. A lot of the men love crossfit because it is competitive. I notice a lot of females will complain the coaches pushes them too hard in regards of heavy weights. It is very easy to get injured. Crossfit is a fad. Another fad will replace crossfit in another couple years

Listen to the Jillian Michaels 12/15 Holiday survival podcast starting at the 1/2 hour point. She talks about crossfit and why she thinks it isn't safe https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/the-jillian-michaels-show/id418368811

great info in regards of iodine. I'm not sure if I will like Kelp because it has a lot of sodium. Anybody taking an over the counter iodine supplement. If so what would you recommend.
