its all about WHAT your eating.. trust me, i can't eat huge and abundant amounts but ive figured out the proper foods that will deliver the results without overreating, or having to use dirtier type calories to make the amount necessary... its all about customization and finding the right formula for what you need... it takes a lot of number crunching etc but trust me, i do this for a living with all my clients and there are ratios and numbers that will equate to deliver you the results without feeling like you cannot do it, because you most certainly can...
