The single best fitness thing I've seen:

Thanks for the source. I need this so badly. I gained 10lbs because of the long holiday

 

Excellent site, and I love the name "science fitness" - which means 1) fitness is a science, not a quick fix, guess work, latest craze thing; and 2) there's a LOT of BS out there...

Injecting the laws of thermodynamics is brilliant - you simply understand that you aren't going to magically take a pill and whammo - you lost weight or you built muscle.

It's a plethora of things - diet, exercise, sleep habits, etc...I love the fact that this breaks it down in tremendous detail - the physical trainer on a web page so to speak

 

Bump.

This info is so good.

In the myfitnesspal charts from NeuroBeaker at the start of the thread, he successfully cut calories down, but they were still being derived from a high percentage of carbs. In my (personal) experience, getting the calorie contribution to be more heavily weighted on proteins is difficult, but pays higher dividends in shedding pounds.
