  1. Gaming mouse

    Can confirm, this is a very nice mouse.
  2. Think you can replace me?
  3. Post Your Car!

    That Toyota was going to shit, I promise you don't want it lol
  4. I wouldn't mind having perfect eye sight so I don't have to wear my glasses/contacts anymore. I don't hate how my glasses look or anything, but having bad eye sight for 15 years is just a hassle at this point.
  5. Post Your Car!

    I went home from school this weekend, and accidentally bought a new car! Feels good to say goodbye to my old Rav. S/O to @Gator for being my hostage all day and helping me get it [ATTACH=CONFIG]17169[/ATTACH]
  6. 11/09/17

    Breaking Bad (even though I'm not quite finished with it), and Shameless
  7. I agree with @All Ts about rewording the question/answer. I have been RDMd before because a detective thought they could kill me for not following their orders. They were confused when I told them that killing me for not following their orders is against the rules. So, I think it would be helpful to have something that clarifies that they can tell people to do something, but they cannot kill someone for not doing what they say.
  8. Coffee, but it has to have some kind of creamer or flavoring in it.
  9. Post Your Car!

    [ATTACH=CONFIG]17138[/ATTACH] This is my RAV. Its not fancy (at all), and this pic is the only time I've ever used the kayak rack for anything other than finding it in my University's parking lot. Truck in the background belongs to @Gator
  10. Yeah, I live in apartments on my college's campus and that's part of the deal. plus if I got a cat my mom wouldn't let me bring it home for the summer lmao
  11. Why 12? But, I would for sure get a cat if that didn't mean getting evicted
  12. I carved a pumpkin, and hung a sign on my front door. That's about the most you can do for a small apartment tbh
  13. Haven't tried a huge variety since turning 21, but I've found so far that I like Smirnoff Ice, Malibu, and Strongbow Apple Ciders are really good as well. I usually mix vodka in there somewhere too, but I'm a light-weight and can't drink that much of it lmao

  15. I love the fall when it's not too cold where you need a sweatshirt, but not miserably hot either.
  16. Post your desktops!

  17. Three Cheese Cavatapi from Applebee's
  18. Have you ever thought about making your own? I haven't looked too much into it, but it may be a way to get something stronger than what you're used to. There's a lot of recipes online that you could alter to fit your needs. I can't give much input on pre-workout, as I don't use them often and my tolerance to it is low so you wouldn't want my pussy suggestions anyway lol. @Gator would be more helpful. He's tried a lot more different kinds than I have.
  19. Hm, looks like you were inferring it??
  20. While your culinary and personal trainer certifications are impressive, I'd like to point out that I'm currently dedicating 6 years of my life to pursue a Master's Degree in Rehabilitation and Strength and Conditioning. There are many different thoughts on weight loss and what works and does not. I am fully aware of the difference in body types, as that is a core part of my major. I did not say anywhere that a caloric deficit is the only way to lose weight. I know there are many healthy ways to lose weight, but as the original question of this thread is "Anyone have special training to lose fat?" I was not talking about weight loss. You may be right in saying that it doesn't cause weight loss, but fat and weight loss are two different things. This honestly sounds like a normal day of eating then going to bed? So, if someone has an 8 hour window (normal day) to eat whatever they want how would this work for someone who is inexperienced and looking for ways to diet? Front-loading calories and eating proper portions of all the food groups through out the day, with protein or carbohydrate filled snacks between, is the best way (but not the only way) to go if someone new to fat loss wanted to do intermittent fasting to lose fat. Front-loading will also help with late night cravings, if you are eating complete shit for 8 hours then suddenly stop eating you're going to crave what you've been eating all day. I'm not saying that intermittent fasting isn't a good option, but I don't see how it would work for someone who is new to the healthy eating world. A good way to start off is to introduce them to a healthy eating schedule, then healthy food alternatives to their life. Then the right kind of intermittent fasting could be a good way to keep fat off. I don't believe it is the right way to start a "diet". I am fully aware that a healthy, well-balanced diet isn't the only way to help with fat loss but it does contribute. I am all for exercise and have plenty of knowledge about the different types and ways to use that as well. Along with sleep and life patterns that contribute to a healthy lifestyle. Believe what you want, and I will continue doing the same.
  21. “Some believe that the key to body-fat loss is doing fat-burning exercises, or low-intensity exercise that uses more than carbohydrate for fuel. Wrong. The key to body-fat loss is to consume fewer calories than you burn”- Sports Nutrition Guidebook 5th Ed. by Nancy Clark. Pg. 272 While I do agree you should cut out some (not all) “junk food” from your diet, it doesn’t matter what you’re eating as long as you intake less calories than you are expending. For example, if you really wanted to you could eat chips and soda every day for the rest of your life and even though this would be horribly unhealthy for your body, as long as you’re eating less calories than you expend you’ll lose body fat. Granted, if you live a lifestyle like that you’ll also lose muscle mass, but that’s not to say that you won’t also lose fat through doing that. I do agree that you should evaluate your current diet and incorporate healthier options, as long as you're eating less than you use you'll lose fat. Intermittent fasting? If you want to lose weight and keep it off fasting is not the way to go. Fasting will cause cravings, which will in turn cause weight gain. A healthy eating schedule is going to be the most effective. The best thing to do is eat three regular meals a day and have small snacks between. To lose weight in a healthy way you want to ask yourself these four questions: 1.How much do you eat? Do not over portion 2.When do you eat? Eat more in the morning vs. night 3.Why are you eating? Are you eating because you’re bored or because your body needs fuel? 4.How much sleep are you getting? Lack of sleep can make you believe you need to eat/drink something for energy when really you just aren’t getting enough sleep. Also with a good eating schedule you want to frontload your calories. This means eating a larger breakfast rather than a large dinner. You don’t want to eat the majority of your calories at night, because your body will burn the most calories throughout the day. DO NOT fast and mix in weight training. This will cause atrophy with your muscles due to a lack of nutrients. A healthy, balanced diet with cardio or weight training mixed in, is what will help you the most. I agree with Gator 100%. If you don't move hardly at all right now, look for ways to get up and around. Take the stairs instead of the elevator, park further away when you go somewhere, or walk up and down the block a few times. As long as you get your heart rate up you will begin to see results. Build up to a good work out that gets your heart pumping.
  22. For me I think it would be having good character. By this I mean doing the right thing even if nobody is around to praise them for it, and treating others the way they expect to be treated.
  23. No orange juice for me. If I'm getting juice it's usually cran-apple or some type of cranberry juice
