PLEASE READ - Posting Diet Questions

This question has become all to familiar here on this site:

"Hi, I weigh xxx lbs and im looking to lose 30 lbs. Can anyone help me out?"

I would like to take some time out to help all the new members out on what to include when posting diet questions. This will help insure that you get a detailed response instead of 5 posts of questions from people trying to get what I have included below, out of you.

When posting diet questions, please try to include the following:

1. Goals: Eveyone should have a fitness goal when starting to workout. If you don't, I suggest you make a long term one and a few short term ones to help keep you motivated. Be sure to include both in your post.

2. Make sure you include the time of day you eat your meals, what they consist of, and the macro breakdown of the foods.

3. Your current level of fitness, experiance, etc....

4. Your current stats. Age, sex, height, weight, bodyfat, etc...


Here is an example of a detailed post that will get great detailed answers on:

"Hello,

I have been training for about 5 years now with not much progress. Here are my stats:

27 years old
male
5'10
205 lbs
Bodyfat - unknown

I am looking to loose 25 lbs while keeping the lean muscle that I have. Here is my current diet. Please critique it and let me know if I should make any changes.

Meal 1 - Time
Pro/carb/fat

Meal 2 - Time
Pro/carb/fat

Meal 3 - Time
Pro/carb/fat

Meal 4 - Time
Pro/carb/fat

Meal 5 - Time
Pro/carb/fat

Meal 6 - Time
Pro/carb/fat

Meal 7 - Time
Pro/carb/fat


You can also include the macro breakdown of each meal which will give you an even faster response time.

I hope this helps everyone out.

Its ok if you don't have it. My post was just to make sure that people post as much information as possible that you do have so you can get an in depth reply.

You can test your Bf in many different ways. Here are a few....
 
LV, nice post, if only all newbies would see this before asking questions....this should be a sticky....or maybe have a section for new member rules or something.
 
This should be stickied.

I think we also need one in the Weight Training/Body Building forum for the twenty daily posts regarding abs and pecs.
