Spot on.

Awesome! I'm glad you found a plan that is working out for you. :D

Looks like the It was when I posted it over 3 hours ago, hence the screen shot.

Wow. The entire NYSE exchange and the Wall Street Journal web site are now down. Talk about a major debacle. Is it just a bizarre coincidence or is there something more to it? Stocks stopped trading on the NYSE at around 11:32 AM. The same listed stocks being traded on the Nasdaq Stock Market...

You're getting meal timing confused with meal frequency. He's referring to meal frequency, as in the number of times that one eats each day.

Montreal isn't exactly known as a mecca for health and fitness knowledge. I should know. I used to live there. I've never seen more cigarette smokers in all my life.

Well you should ask him what would happen if someone combined a proper diet and exercise with intermittent fasting. Because that's exactly what I'm doing and recommending to others. In no way am I saying that intermittent fasting is a replacement for a balanced diet and exercise.

I'd sue them too because that $7 million defense cost is absolutely outrageous. Aleynikov wasn't found guilty of a crime on two separate instances, so somebody besides him needs to pay for that debacle.

No. I'm note familiar with that book. I originally learned about intermittent fasting from Dr. John Berardi from Precision Nutrition.

Yes. I like a lot of his writing. It's a shame he doesn't post very often any more. You'd be much better off getting up and doing your weight training on an empty stomach versus doing all that cardio. I'm not a big cardio fan at all. Weight training on an empty stomach is the most efficient...

This advice may prove useful to you. Consider easing into it gradually to minimize the hunger impact. Let's say for the sake of argument that my normal routine is eating breakfast at 8AM and then eating at various times for the remainder of the day until 10PM. If I was going to try intermittent...

If you're going to do it, a nighttime intake of casein would be ideal but I haven't personally bothered with it myself.

Throw that old thinking right out of the window. If you keep your eating within the 8-hour window and your overall calorie intake and macros are within normal range, you can consume those calories at any point during your feeding window. If you want to save most of your calories until right...

No. I never counted calories consistently. But in the beginning, I did count them for a day or two so I could get a feel of what my macros were like by eating that way. When I say macros I mean total grams of Protein, Carbs, and Fat taken in for that day. No. If you did that, you wouldn't end...

There's really only one thing that truly makes a difference. And that's consistency of effort. If you are constantly starting and stopping your diet and/or training, it's virtually impossible to get any lasting results. So in my opinion, the only diet or workout program that's worth a damn is...

Yes, the general wisdom is to eat 6 small meals per day to "keep your metabolism going". Although technically true, it implies that your metabolism somehow stops or slows down otherwise, which is bullshit. Here's all you need to know: Your metabolism ramps up in direct proportion to the size of...

Not too long ago, researchers found a gene located on the 16th chromosome called the FTO gene. When the FTO gene malfunctions (mutates), researchers noticed a link to diabetes and the likelihood of having more fat. A later study looked at 704 adults with an average age of about 44 years old...

Absolute horse shit. The most extensive review of studies on various meal frequencies was published in 1997. It examined a bunch of different studies that compared daily meal frequencies ranging from 1-17 meals per day and concluded: "Studies using whole-body calorimetry and doubly-labelled...

That's probably where your weight loss is stalling out. Big meals like that can easily have an entire day's worth of calories in them, so if you're going to eat like that a couple times per week, you need to make those cheat meals your primary source of calories and eat virtually nothing else on...
