oh yeah, couple general questions....

what does the "progress" percentage in the upper right-hand corner of a persons post mean?

also what are the little pictures of steak or chicken or lobsters next to people avatars??

:help:

thanx...
The progress percentage is the percentage weight lost of the amount you wish to lose. And as you have presumably discovered, you can find out about the steak or chicken or lobsters by clicking on them. :)

Welcome!

Seasons: From your stats, you are indicating you want to GAIN 10 pounds? When you change the middle number, your precentages change.

yeah, im looking to gain alittle muscle....

..i dont have much fat and dont consume many carbs previous to finding this site...except some raw honey...and a half a banana post lifting weights....so i wont be cutting that many carbs...but i will be upping my meat consumption.....my fat consumption is already really high.

so what is "low carbs" actually?

i thought i saw someone mention 30grams.......i think i get maybe around 100grams right now.....i was thinking of cutting that to 50grams for a few weeks and then progressing to 30??
