Hey everybody. Ok Spring break is over im back at college, 2 months left in this semester and 3 months until my summer job starts (camp counselor). Ok ive lurked on a bunch of forums, been reasearching reading. I have a plan.

Age: 20 Weight:226 Bf% (go here for method i use http://www.he.net/~zone/prothd2.html) 33% Height:5'10.5" Gender: Male

Goals: I have mini goals and big goals

a) 1st small goal sub 220lbs b) 2nd small goal sub 215 c) 3rd small goal sub 210
d) 1st BIG goal sub 200 ilbs e) 2nd big goal 15% bf f) Final weight and bf% goals 165-175 weight, 10% or under for bf and visually being able to see my abs (ive never seen them before except for the hint of one of the top ones when i suck in, weird i know)

anyway, i shall be following the atkins induction plan but modified, i will not be eating all the calories i want i will be eating around 2100 calories per day of high protien and little to no carb. I will see how it goes for the minimum of 2 weeks. I will probably do it for a month though. plus lots of water, ive been drinking diet soda for the past 6 months that was the first switch but now i think its just healthier and better for fat loss to be drinking tons of water.

exercise:
cardio: i cant do H.I.I.T my body cant handle it right now i may try it on a bike but for now i will be running everyday.
weights: for anyone familiar with kettlebells i am doing exercises, ive learned how to do them from a certified instructor and will be doing high rep ballistic kettle bell exercises with dumbbells 3 or 4 days a week, this is to maintain and work my muscles and more calorie burning

Weight today:224 lbs (ill update my weight weekly)

FOOD: Honesty is the best policy, they somehow decided to make a change in the ways lunch worked, i was gonna one or two plain hamburgers (no buns) water, and some chicken, but damnit they changed around lunches, so my mood swing immediately began to take over, first i said ah well i can still have chicken but it was a pain in the ass to spoon out the chicken and avoid the veggies (veggies are good i know but im doing low to zero carb for at least two weeks ), anyway i did have soe of th chicken but the fact that i was pissed off they had no plain hamburgers i decided to eat some pasta, and i had some ice cream, extrememly baaaddd I KNOW! really im not lazy i just need to build discipline

Where as usually since i screwed up food id say well ill REALLY start tommorow and just be lazy, today i made a change, this is about long term baby steps, if it comes down to me making one change a month concerning diet and exercise then ill do it

soooo with tha being said

WORKOUT: high rep ballistic dumbbell lifts 25 minutes, killer workout, that was the first time i was really drenched in sweat from weights


Now im off to the gym to get in some slow steady cardio 20 minutes worth

Then replenish with tons of H20 and a sensible dinner later on :eat:

later guys
