lavolpepounce asked: Hi, I know what bulking and cutting are. My question is about carb cycling. Apparently there is a right and wrong way to do it? Something about carbing up before workout and then avoiding carbs the rest of the day. Do you utilize any of these methods to keep lean and still maintain muscle mass?
s0liltude asked: what do you do to get your butt and upper thighs toned/tight?
jacobgetsfit asked: good morning. even tho im sure u get this all the time, your body is ridiculous and i just had to compliment you. a friend of mine who is about to turn 40 (hikes a lot) claims to be out of shape, but is identical to your body type/shape. i show'd her your page and she's motivated to get cut - awesome job

girlgotmuscle asked: Hey, I tried using pumpkin as a topping, great idea! I don't use butter, but I'd normally opt for a nut butter instead, but having a sweet, low cal option is amazing! It's like having a pumpkin pie on your toast! Thanks!

confident-carefree asked: I love your no-nonsense approach, especially when it comes to nutrition! I've been looking into the Raw Food Diet and I'm wondering when it comes to oatmeal (which I mix into yogurt in the a.m.) is it better to eat it raw or cooked? Does it matter?

eat-sweat-live asked: Hi, I have seen your plain foods list. I'm just wondering, can you (if you haven't already) post an example of a days worth of meals might look for you? I'm just curious to know how you combine your plain/boring foods - some of which are actually quite exciting lol. And by the way, you are fantastically inspirational.
