Hmmmmmm
" Tonalin Conjugated Linoleic Acid (CLA) is a fatty acid derived from safflower oil. Tonalin's potential benefits are cited in U.S. Patent 5,554,646, which states that CLA plays a role in reducing body fat and increasing body protein (muscle) in animals. Clinical trials are currently being conducted to confirm its effects in humans. "
Daily is pointless. You should only do weekly or even monthly. That way you can see the change rather than watching pounds go up and down only to slowly discourage you.
Yeah man leave that CLA alone, everybody should be fucking with spirulina and chlorella instead.
Heres an article about CLA and spirulina.

i've noticed most people i encounter have an apprehensive attitude towards weight loss. i could sit back and eat junk food all day and drink soda pop and juice and nobody says anything but the minute i do 8 mile jogs and eat 1800 calories a day i'm supposedly hurting myself or being extreme or starving myself.
ok so i wasn't being extreme when i downed whole two liters of soda pop in one sitting? i've experienecd little real encouragment from most of the people i know. the reaction is usually along the lines of:
why are you doing this?
you look fine.
you carry your weight well.
is this for a girl or something?
why starve yourself?
why eat nasty foods?
100 pounds is too much weight to lose.
*offers me some crap like a soda or candy*
*eats unhealthy food right in my face trying to make it look tempting*
these people don't understand i'm executing a program. i've programmed my mind to do this, live like this. i crave it, i was at the gym at 5 something in the morning to jog. my body wakes me up early as hell as if it expects this. they can't talk me out of this or tempt me with the poison they call good food.
just because they don't have what it takes to live better doesn't mean they have to talk it down and try to make it seem like a negative thing. i guess that's the rationalizations they use to try and make all the bad things they do seem ok.
not me. i won't live like that anymore. there aren't any excuses to not live better. to not be better. every day i'm getting further along on my path and i'm willing to do whatever it takes to see this through. i will remake myself into a better person, a person worthy of my own respect because i earned it and not just because i'm me.
i'm not a child, i can eat foods that don't taste good to me because its necessary.
Damn bro, you didn't look that big in those pics of you that were posted. I guess it's possible to lose 40 in 40, but it's unlikely. I lost 20lbs of fat in 3 weeks to cut up for the summer, but it's easier fo me since I have a lot of muscles. With my size, muscle, height, and metabolism I can get 5000 calories to maintain my curret weight. What i did was cut out all booze and maintained a 1500 calorie a day diet broken up into 5 meals 300 Cals each. My protein intake was high to ensure no muscles were lost. Iost an average of one pound per day. So I guess 40 in 40 is possible, but it will be hard work.
Ummmm if you feel insecure about yourself that fine. Only a weasel of a bitch nigga would say something like that.In every other fitness thread you you try so hard to convince everyone that you aren't fat.
Yeah man leave that CLA alone, everybody should be fucking with spirulina and chlorella instead.

Ive tested cla for around 4 months and it really did nothing for me. I've spoken to a lot of people, and what I've gathered is it won't really assist in fat loss unless you're already around 10% body fat. Then it can help you drop down to 7-8%. People with high amounts of body fat probably won't see any significant losses with this supplement.Why would you post up a horrible opinion of CLA thats not even remotely a credible article? Did you even read that nonsense?
I had never really even heard of Cla until this thread. So I did some research and discovered it has a lot of medical proof and a lot of athletes and professional trainers use it.
You just posted up some idiot talking about nothing.
Ummmm if you feel insecure about yourself that fine. Only a weasel of a bitch nigga would say something like that.
The reason I participate in fitness threads is it's something I know about and have been involved in for 14 years. Just because you're a fucking pathetic faggot ass weakling obese oaf doesn't mean everyone is like you you bitch ass jackass.
I'm not trying hard to convince anyone of anything. Only sucker niggas like you would fabricate shit to a bunch of niggas. Everything I say about working out, dieting etc is true. Only a bitch ass pussy would even consider saying something like this. Obviously you're an envious type of bitch nigga. If you feel threatened by someone nigga you try to clown him. Kind of like dadon.... I post my car, he claims I'm a valet parker, then perma bans me.
You generation of 20 something skinny jeans bitch ass niggas from a single welfare mother are going to be the downfall of black people. You aren't men, you are a bunch of fucking women.
HCG Diet
Dr. A.T.W. Simeons, a specialist on obesity and weight regulation, introduced a program that has helped many people overcome weight loss resistance. The program utilizes a natural hormone that is produced during pregnancy called Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG). Dr. Simeons' theory is that HCG causes the hypothalamus area of the brain to trigger a release of abnormal fat stores. When administered in relatively small doses and coupled with a very low calorie diet, people routinely lose 1 to 2 pounds per day.
HCG has helped thousands of people lose those stubborn pounds. In addition to weight loss, many patients who have completed the HCG program also experienced many other health benefits, including a drop in cholesterol, blood pressure and blood sugar.
In order to answer this question you need to understand how the body stores and uses fat. Dr. Simeons identified three separate fat stores:
1. Normal fat: This type of fat can be likened to a checking account from which the body can easily draw energy or deposit it as needed. Normal fat doesn't take a lot of effort to lose.
2. Structural fat: Pads the various organs, protects the arteries and cushions the bony prominences. You don't ever want to lose this fat. It is vital to your health and well being. Yet, on the typical "starvation" diet, this is the fat you lose when the normal fat is depleted.
3. Abnormal fat: This is much like a bank safe deposit box, where fat is stored and basically locked away. This fat is very difficult to lose via exercise and calorie restriction, but with the help of HCG the body readily pulls fat from these "last resort" fat stores.
Bottom line: If you go on a 500-calorie diet without HCG, the body uses the normal fat and then starts to use the structural fat and muscle. Losing your structural fat and muscle tissue can adversely affect your health and well-being. In addition, "starvation" diets without HCG can cause you to be excessively hungry, which is typically not true for those using HCG drops on Dr. Simeons' special 500-calorie schedule. This is not just a VLCD (very-low-calorie-diet). See next question.
perhaps your water intake was shit or your body has a dysfunctional way of utilizing water to dilute such substances like digestible proteins where it puts a strain on your kidneys.
i drink at least a gallon of water daily.
when I was cutting for the summer (psmf), my daily protein intake (from shakes alone) was 250+ grams given the fact that my lbm percentage is 205lbs.
i get physicals twice a year and just recently had one myself.
all of my levels were green all across the board well within the normal ranges.
i do recall some years ago one time getting a physical where my dr told me to lay off the protein because some of my levels were increasing but that was due to the fact that i was not drinking a sufficient amount of water.
i ignored his warning and simply increased my water intake and now all is fine.
water is key.
Nigga you're an idiot. It's obvious you are some doofus in his 20's who thinks he knows everything. For your information at my peak weight I was 260lbs. Now I"m around 239. Neither time was I close to obese. At 260 I was around 17% body fat which is NOT obese, now I'm around 12% body fat. 21% body fat is considered obese nigga. Please shut the fuck up. When trying to make points about something you don't know jack shit about you make yourself look like more of an idiot. Just stick to riding niggas, but not me. I'm not the one little bitch.Honestly I didn't read a word of that.
If you lost 20lbs of "fat" in 3 weeks which averages 6.66lbs per week. You are obese...I never expect much from a guy who thinks elliptical machines don't fall under the category of cardiovascular activity.
Your math aint adding up (or i could be mistaken). If at 260 you had a BF% of 17 thats about 43/44pounds of fat. If you shed 20lbs fat than your BF% should be lower then 12.Nigga you're an idiot.

I was 240ish in May. I'm down to 222. Hopefully I can reach 215 by my birthday (September 15th)
Cutting eating habits and running intervals on the track have helped me the most. Oh and I drink about a gallon of water a day.

Man you got to eat. It's a simple concept. Calories in versus calories out. For your size, stay at 1500-1700 calories a day, walk 2 fast paced miles and drink 80 ounces of water and you will keep on losing weight without thinking about it. This no food shit that you're doing will get you nowhere, in fact you will gain more weight when you get tired of it.
I'm saying this because it worked for me. I used to go to exercise bootcamp where we did the most rigorous routines but I never lost weight in 3 months because I did not change my eating habit. Then I went to a weight loss doctor who told me what to do and now I just restrict my calories, walk and drink water and I lose weight every week at a rate of 3lbs/week. I also don't feel starved. I am older than you btw. I am not obese but I am just trying to get under 200lbs. I started at 232 and down to 215 in about 1.5 months.
Phew, good work starting mines 2morrow..![]()
lets get it bro! had a hot pocket today tho.. couldnt resist![]()
