I like that idea a lot Cubby, i've never thought about that, but I love dates.

i also did some research trying to find free-form EAA, but there are so many supplements as far as Amino Acids go, it's crazy. I was looking at iherb.com...if anyone could point me in the right direction that'd be great, thanks!

Interesting, thanks! I am really considering trying out BA/Creatine at the same time. It would be my first time for both, so I'm going to have to do more research to figure out dosages

What does the caffeine do for working out? Besides increased energy.

I can't get enough of his blog.

I'm vegan and have been for the year and a half i've been attending ASU. You should be able to find vegan and vegetarian options available in both your university market/dorm market, and the cafeteria/food courts. I don't live on campus, but I had friends who were vegan and lived on campus and it wasn't a problem. I would also suggest buying a lot of things you can heat up in a microwave, it's not the healthiest obviously, but it will probably come in handy.

Thanks for the response! I will definitely try that. In fact, the most I've weighed was on a two month raw-foods trial. I think it was because I was consuming so many nuts/seeds and bananas. I've increased my intake of whole foods dramatically, so I'll keep spicing them up and see how I feel. As far as your first comment, I have this problem along with the mj, as well. i really see no benefit for it's appetite stimulation, to be honest. Could just be me though.

Hey everyone, I am slowly getting back into working out and improving my diet. My only problem is my inability to consume. I have always been skinny, but it's becoming obvious that I need to change something (mindset, viewpoint, idk). I need help with increasing my appetite so I can gain more weight. I'm 6'1 and about 140 pounds at the moment.

Awesome! I love seeing people pursuing their dreams and true desires. How has hosting with green geeks been? I am looking for a service for my art collective/personal development website, or possibly two. The prices are reasonable, but I how has customer support been, etc?

That looks great, man!! Nice looking sleeve.

Exactly! But for some reason, so hard not to let it happen.

Amazing job Candyflip. I'm sure you've inspired tons of people with your dedication to losing the weight. Great job.

(Oh, and also, funny name)

Hahahah that was funny Marcina.

This is a joke, though. If it is the so-called "de-cocainized" leafs, then there should be absolutely no problem with this at all. Besides the fact that Red Bull isn't good.

Chaohinon-

Hahaha, why make that point anyways? Just because a life force isn't proven through, the apparently objective "science", doesn't mean it will not be in the future... You completely throwing out the possibility of whatever a "life force" is just shows how hypocritical you're being. You have you're own beliefs and so do other people. I don't understand why it's so easy for people to believe in an unprovable objective reality when it's such a dis-empowering view of reality versus a subjective reality viewpoint. Believe in whatever gives you the most ability and confidence and power to do what you want, and the most empowering belief system is not an objective view of the world by any means.

If you're upset about the tests, all you need to do is to set up a different system for how you handle that class. Maybe you need a different method for studying for the tests; if you're doing well in other classes, I'm sure you could in that one as well. But really, all you need to remember is that every moment is a perfect moment, never be upset about you're current situation, it's all you have- find the positives in it and respect it. Everything in your life is your responsibility, so that means you can change anything you want. Next time you have a test, study harder, get an A.

That makes me so happy...regardless of if the dog died, it's incredible the other dog did that. That made my day a lot better.

Thanks for the reply. I was thinking about it and I think my calcium and iron consumption is fine. I recently bought some sesame seeds because they have a ridiculous amount of both calcium and iron. I don't eat too many avocados. I'm mostly eating sweet fruits and occasionally nuts and seeds. I would guess i'm following close to the 811, although I've never done research into that.

Hey everyone, I'm on day 25 of my all raw diet! This is the third time I've tried it, but I've decided to make it permanent this time. My only concern is calcium and iron. I make around 3 green smoothies a day with 4 bananas, 4-6 cups of baby spinach and 3 cups of assorted berries. Other than that the only vegetables I eat often are with salads, which isn't too often anyways. I eat a fair amount of sunflower seeds and cashews. I eat avocados, bell peppers, onions, carrots, zucchini. I'm just a little nervous about my iron and calcium. Everything else I feel like is in good shape. I'm a small person so eating more than I am would be very hard. Any suggestions would be great for how I can up those nutrients (if I even need to) would be really appreciated. Thanks!

Dude, great progress. Keep it up! And post some new pictures soon, you'll see great results. Take advantage of your first 8 or so months1

Hey everyone,

I was working out basically every day for a month or so, and the past week and a half (almost 2 weeks) I haven't gone. How detrimental is that to my progress? I feel terrible for not going and I know I'll be back in the routine in no time, but I'm just curious how long of a break too long is?

p.s. I did a search but couldn't find anything

Thanks!

Hmm...This is interesting. It's obvious that each action has a reaction, so in a sense I believe in it. There is an obvious flaw though, there essentially is no beginning of the universe, or one that we confidently know of, so when did this chain reaction start. haha, I'm thinking too deeply into this probably.

Come on guys! Everyone knows that your next raise is way more important than the environment ; ) . It's ridiculously annoying how much people don't care anymore. Yet, they all pretend to.

I'm kinda confused by this as well. I figured that drinking a huge fruit smoothie with some protein would provide the carbs and the protein needed prior to a workout.

What's the "seperation in the biceps" caused from? You've definitely changed your physique a ton! It's an awesome transformation to your current body, great job.

Nipple rings are awesome, 18 with a nipple ring

Thanks for the tip "im your man". I can see the outline of my abs, but they aren't defined. But recently they have been showing more, so I think it's working out so far.

Another good book is John Robbin's Living to 100
