My Journal.

I've been needing one of these for a while.

Okay so..
Stats:
245lb
37% Body fat
Height: 6'1

No pictures yet.

Goals:
200lb (For now)
Under 20% Body fat (For now)
Date: October 04. It would have been one year and 2 days since I started eating clean and working out.


I started out at what I thought was 250lb, it wasn't. I was using a broken scale, and when I done the math, I was around 285lb. Maybe even higher :rolleyes:
Right now I'm between 245-250. I've rethought out my diet, and workouts.

*update*
My go similar to this, although I switch things up a lot:
Monday: Arms, abs
Tuesday: Cardio
Wedensday: Ju Jitsu
Thursday: Lower body (Legs, back)
Friday: Shoulders, chest, Cardio
Saturday: Cardio
Sunday: No Workout
*update over*

My diet, I do not log. I've got an idea on how many calories I am eating per day, including protein carbs and fat, I add it in my head, or I would write it down in excel and delete it after I'm done, Keeping logs like that isn't very motivating for me, it requires more work.

Now, the foods I eat would be:
Veg (Brussels sprouts, Broccali, Carrots, Tinned baby carrots, Potatoes, Cauliflower, Lettuce, Beetroot, Onions, and so on)
Meat (Steak with the fat trimmed, Chicken, Fish, Ham, Turkey, Tuna)
Dairy (Full eggs, skimmed milk, Cheese)
Other (Wheatabix since I don't like Oatmeal, Honey, Wheat bread, Mayo , low calorie salad cream, Olive oil,and when I have the money for it - Whey protein)

Overall I think it looks good, The mayo is used for sandwhiches, since I prefere it over butter, but it's a pretty thin spread.

I'll be updating this as much as possible.

First update

My diet yesterday was good, Due to eating a lot of good veg I was really full and had no feeling to binge, which is a problem for me.
I also done some lifting. But right now it's very hard to get protein, I don't have any suppliments and not much shopping :(. I'll have to make do.

Today I've got some cardio.

Ju Jitsu earlier on.
Today, the diet wasn't good at all, I ate few too many calories and non of it was clean food apart from early on in the morning.
No shopping still. Have to do that soon.
Hopefully it won't hurt me too bad,

I've redone my workout, added much more weights in and some cardio aswell.
Hopefully it'll help more than my poor previous workout. I'm really going to be pushing myself. Diet wise, I'm still on that.

Today was a funeral, in Ireland at least anyway, people go to a bar for a reception, so I had at most, 4 pints (The 4th half finished). Tomorow I'm waking up, eating, and getting a good workout and so on. It'll be shoulders. Should be tough.
I'll be buying some whey at the end of the week to help me with getting enough protein.

Ho ho ho.
I've been doing a lot of cario and eating plenty of veg, I cheated twice at the weekend, but it wasn't too bad, I don't think it made much impact.

I haven't weighed myself, I'mm be doing that next monday.
Ju Jitsu tonight, and I've got an arm workout before it.

Ive been doing great, It's been a while since I updated.
I started a new job on Saturday in a nightclub so its late nights (9pm to 3am), so I moved my cheat day/night to Friday.

I've just had a workout and the diet is goign good, I bought some whey aswell to help me get my protein needs without chugging down tuna.
Weigh in tomorow, and a bf count.
