Just remember everyone, while calories are important each day, EMPTY calories do not give your body the nutrients to rebuild. Non nutritional calories may enable someone to reduce their weight loss, but if ( as in eating a whole cheesecake) those calories do not contain the proteins and amino acids, vitamins and minerals for your body to use to rebuild the damage being done, it will try to find them elsewhere. This means that it will break down your muscle tissues to get what it needs. There is a great deal of difference between wieght in the form of muscle, and weight in the form of adipose tissue....
