Hi, I've read that pistachio nuts have 700 calories per cup. What is never specified is whether this means a cup of pistachios in shells or a cup of pistachios that have been shelled. Since a pistachio in the shell takes up much more space than a shelled pistachio, the difference is crucial. If a cup of pistachios in the shells have 700 calories, they are very fattening. If what is ...

I've been eating weird food lately. Does anyone have any idea what the macro nutrient ratio or calories there are in pigs/chicken/goat's blood? I am assuming there would be fats, protein, not sure about carbohydrates? Thanks.

I have been advised that 20%P 0%C 80%F is a good way to SHOCK your body into ketosis and I know that normal keto diets are: 30%P 5%C 60%F so what is TOO much and will throw you outta ketosis? Is it as long as you are Under 5% Carbs then you are in ketosis? thanks

So i got in really good shape over the last 4 years or so but couldn't break thru that last bit of fat. The final ingredient I needed was to set up my BMR, activity multiplier and macronutrient ratios. I signed up for Fitday and monitored everything I am consuming. I already see and feel the last bit of fat melting off.

If I want to lose weight I know that I have to eat 1200 calories . Is it really all about calories ? Does macronutrient content have an impact on weightloss? For instance, if I eat 1200 calories and it's all fat will I still lose weight? So confuseddddd...

I'm just curious... especially for those of you (women) experiencing weight loss, how does your cumulative nutrition report look and how does it compare to mine? I am losing weight SLOWLY and I'm wondering if it has something to do with my macronutrient breakdown. I'm trying to achieve the ideal percentages for weight loss. This is my cumulative (over 1 month's worth) breakdown: Fat - 32.8...

Some background - I'm 6'3", 228 pounds, weight train 3x a week for about an hour each time, and I do 45-60 minutes of cardio 4x per week. Macronutrient breakdown goes like this, daily: 240g protein 80g fat 100g carbs Works out to about 2,080 calories per day. My number one goal is losing fat; as for muscle, all I really want to do is maintain - for now. If I ever get lean ...
