I would also suggest a cheat day. Wednesday to be exact. When I was going through this I stuck to my diet until wed. that day I would go work out really hard to get the body goin and then go eat, pizza pasta or what ever. It never gave me a neg sign yet help curve the cravings. Good job so far, at 6;10 I think you should be around 180-185. I know the army wanted me around 185-195 at 6;1. At 205 they would put you in the fatboy program.

time for a little update.

So i peaked at a 14lb weight loss by just changing my diet over the course of a month and a half. I ended up going on a cruise later on in july, and that screwed up my diet.

Got lazy over the last couple months gained about 3-4lbs. So im back on track, and ive lost those 3-4 lbs over last month in which i changed back to a better diet.

Ive also started doing low weight, high rep exercise. mostly chest and upper body. Im not looking to bulk up, just getting leaner.

Diet wise, im trying not to overdo carbs. Ive been drinking alot of water lately, probably close to a 3/4 a gallon if not more a day. Ive been eating alot of protein (steak, eggs, fish).

Well see how it goes, ive been excercising every day for the past week and half. My goal is to get down to 175 by christmas.

edit: also started doing stomach vacuums. Which concept wise sound easy and simple, but are pretty hard. 1 minute (3 reps 20 secs) and my abs feel like ive done 100 crunches.

How much do you weight now?
I would be happy at 210 right now I am about 245.
Every time I diet I fail but this time I got goals.

 

[NCZ13]

187

but im 5'9, and my body fat isnt where i want it.

supposedly the stomach vacuum exercise is supposed to show some results within 2-3 weeks, and is the best way to work the entire abdomen. Plus you can do them anywhere. sitting, standing, lying.

I am about to start working out and eating healthy.
Been home doing nothing so I gained alot of weight.
I have the tmil and weight bench and absiciors in a room that
I turned into a work out room, also I got the tybo work out videos.

changing the diet i think is probably the easiest part.

instead of eating a snack, i found its better to drink water, flavored with like a spoonful of powdered peach tea. (or whatever flavor drink you want) This way you dont have to drink plain water.

I have been drinking red dimond sugar free iced tea.
I think I will be eating chicken, tuna, salad, fruits.

I got heavier my junior and senior years in college. I was in the best shape of my life the summer before freshman year and weighed around 155 and most of that was lean muscle (I played soccer). Unfortunately school took over my life (engineering is hard) so I rarely had time to exercise and my diet (if you can call it that) really sucked. I ended up being upwards of 170 lbs (mostly fat) by the time I graduated. Since I've moved out on my own and started working I really started to monitor how much I eat. Over the past 18 weeks or so I've been counting the amount of calories I eat daily and I try to keep the total below 2000 because I rarely have the time to be moderately active (work 'til 5 PM then homework for MS afterwards). I really haven't changed what I eat though. I mean, I've switched from regular to diet soda and I eat "diet" or "light" foods in place of regular when I can. To avoid getting hungry I just keep myself busy as it keeps my mind off of food. Just by modifying how much I eat I've dropped to roughly 145 lbs. Unfortunately, my muscle mass is lacking because I just don't have the time to work out. For exercise I typically run maybe 5 miles a week, split over three days. I do spend a sizeable amount of time working on my car though. Oh yeah, I'm somewhere between 5'-9" and 5'-10" in height.

since the past 2 weeks ive been doing the moderate exercise ive noticed my stance and form has improved, my upper body doesnt look as saggy from not doing any work.

145??? I am 195-200 and 5'11" I wear a 33w pant.


If you muscle mass is lacking and you don't have a lot of time to train then get a pair of dumb bells with some weights. There are some really easy workouts that don't take long. If you lift right after work and then again about an hour before you go to bed you will see a difference really quick.

 

[sanblaster]

I need to lose 10 pounds. I'm 5'-8" 170 lbs.

 

[Diehonda]

Do you need to lose weight or fat? People confuse losing weight with losing fat.

 

[sanblaster]

stomach fat. too much soda, not enough water. too much fast food, not enough walking around.

 

[Diehonda]

Yep. You can change your diet and get some core strengthening exercises. Then when you do go walking or jogging you will automatically tighten your stomach. This will inturn cause you to build up your core even more.
