i won't doubt that CLA aids a disciplined diet and workout regimen... i've read a lot of text and studies on 2+ grams of omega 3's doing the same thing... but it still #99 on the list of ways to get into shape. the idea behind supplementing with the right fats is that your body starts to target the useless ones for energy while keeping the good ones.

and if two people look the same yet one was heavier, i'd say that being lighter is never, ever better :) . it's my semi-longterm goal to gain at least 15lbs in lean muscle! stay healthy everyone :)

Hey, Lok. Been a while. This is a very basic way for any MAN to lose his stomach pudge. I've recently started on it myself, and I'm starting to gain some results, but not much. Anyway, go to your local nutrition store and buy a supplement called "CLA" (Conjugated Linoleic Acid). It's a beneficial fatty acid that'll help boost your metabolism, lower your glucose tolerance a smidge, and help process most of the fat that you take in to muscle. At least, that's to my understanding. As far as I know, it won't do much for pre-existing fat, but exercise will help remove it.

Also (this part works for everyone), take a multivitamin mineral tablet once exactly in the middle of every meal. It'll help lower your need for food, while you still get all of your essentials, so you're less likely to take in more fat to be stored by your body.

Other than that, exercise, exercise. But don't push too hard, or you'll only do more damage.

Oh... and cut down on junk foods... btw... special diets don't usually work. Avoid grapefruit (it'll stop your body from absorbing essential nutrients). That's all I can think of off the top of my head.

i've never heard any of these things (minus the junk food/fad diet part), and nutrition and exercise are two of my passions... i hit the gym 6 days a week and count my calories down to the 2-calories-per-packet of splenda i put in my just-about-everything... i can pretty much change my weight to whatever i want it to be, just from knowing my body by keeping track of what i'm doing to my body.

losing weight is the simplest calculation in the world: calories inâ€"calories out=change in weight. it really isn't much more than that!

Yes, let's do it.  Back to back gatherings.  Bleach Gathering Part II  :D

ranma12, I remember FMA'06.  The Yaoi shots spread like the plague.  I don't remember I posted FMA Yaoi pics at the FMA gathering Photobucket site.  *writes on to do list to check*

Here are the FMA '06 pics.  I looked at the pics and I uploaded the PG-13 Yaoi pics ^__^   The pics at the end are the post FMA gathering.  We got lunch at Jack-In-The-Box and walked back to the con and hang out.
