Re: Eating healthy...... getting fat is overrated
i skateboard nearly everyday to help me stay thin. im not muscular by any means, but im far far far from fat. 140 5' 8". Just find some aerobic exercise that you enjoy and make it your hobby. For me weight lifting was difficult because i didnt really enjoy it.

Only eat low fat, high protein foods, integrate complex carbohydrates while keeping non-natural sugars on the low. Fructose and lactose are okay for you, but don't go crazy. Make sure you get a lot of insoluble fiber as well.
Good site. Don't get too crazy though.

also if you try'n to lean out wieght lifting is a horrible way to do so, you need to do ALOT of jump ropping and running along with crunches and pushups, i bet if you go to a more millitary work out you'll get what your looking for. stay away from carbs ( bread,pasta, rice.)

Supplements are just a poor excuse for not eating right. I'm not saying carb load like sprinters do or what not, I mean don't leave them out. Obviously protein should be your number one source for calories, but carbs shouldn't be behind fat at all. Don't eat shitty carbs like white breads and other processed carbs. Get whole grain and complex carbs. They metabolize better in your system than processed ---- does, thus they are better for you. You should NEVER eliminate carbs unless you want to lose muscle mass.

Re: Eating healthy...... getting fat is overrated
I put on about 8-10lbs so far, but I workout and it's the "good" kind of weight gain. 
Although, I noticed at points some weight I gained made my tummy a little softer, but I'm doing alright now as I have a pretty decent diet. This is the most weight I gained since I started lifting years ago, so I'm not complaining, thank God I need it.

Re: Eating healthy...... getting fat is overrated
Eating a balanced diet isn't rocket science. Go to a book shop and buy some cookery books. I'd recommend a woman called Delia Smith (kinda like Martha Stewart, but without the fraud).
Cooking and eating are fun, eating a healthy balanced diet is easy once you learn to enjoy a variety of different foods and fresh produce. There's no point focussing hard on any dramatic weight loss, because unless you change your lifestyle to suit, once the diet stops the weight will go back on.
5 portions of vegetables a day, a large glass of milk, combined with protein and carbohydrates keep me a respectable 180lbs at 6'2" and i have the freedom to eat junk whenever i want, i just prefer not to.

Re: Eating healthy...... getting fat is overrated
OK im not an expert but I just recently lost 50 pounds.
www.bodybuilding.com has TONS of good information.
The key is to eat small portions around 6 times a day and base most of the meals on protein, some vegetables.
NO SODA!!! LOTS OF WATER!
fish, chicken, beef, and pork in EVERY MEAL.
TAKE a multivitamin.
don't eat any carbs after 8 pm if you go to sleep around 10 pm
after doing this for a wile you wont want to eat junk food any more.
oooo light beer or liqueur = no carbs
is always good to normal beer.
The thing is you probably wont have to do all of this, but I had to rethink my entire way of life and im happy i did because getting up in the morning and knowing your not a fat peice of ---- anymore is a awesome feeling. Trust me
I allso gained more muscle faster this diet, HIT THE GYM
It matters how much you want to lose and how fast. Exercising is always good for losing body fat but not physical mass.
meaning you wont lose weight, just fat.
Make fun of me all you want it really dosnt bother me.

Re: Eating healthy...... getting fat is overrated
cardio + eat less calories than you burn = weight loss
that easy. you just experianced what happens when you eat the same way to did when you use to do stuff LoL! Atleast you figured out you were really gaining weight b4 you were 30 & +50lbs.
he's lost about 20lbs since christmass eating right & boxing with his wife on their wii an hour every night. food for thought. lmao ANYTHING but sit & lay around. if you wanna sit & lay around alot, better get use to eating something like 2 bowls of cearal + supper 'cause you'll keep putting that weight on.
