And I want you guys to hold me to it!
Here's the deal to kick my cut into gear....and a nice goal.
Lately I've been up and down with my nutrition (eating alot of shit!). Spinning my wheels if you will. So, to cut this short(er) I'm getting married in two weeks.
My bf% is 16.5@ 175. I know this such a short time frame and I should have been more dedicated earlier on. So in two weeks I want to see if I can dial it in to 13.75% . I think I can do it. I have enough exp. at this( I came down from 242 to my leanest @ 167@11-12%)
My deal is more mental than exercise & nutrition ( calories and % of macronutrients.)
Got that down. It's being in a relationship (that I love!) and getting comfortable that's messin' with me :p I guess this a challenge to myself. (very short term) and to kick my rear end in gear again! I'll post soon!!!

1% per week is do-able if you have the discipline. I've pulled it off before. Going faster than that is a function of how well you know your body, your dietary requirements and your ability to stick to your plan. Good luck.

I don't know about the rate for dropping your body fat percentage, but keep in mind that your wife would almost certainly rather have a happy pudgy groom than an irritable lean one. ;)

Ok guys and girls...I just got back from my honeymoon and what a blast we had :) Here are a few of pics. A before 09.09.04, an after and a couple from the wedding(09.25.04). Like I said, my bf % is higher than the reading I posted, I just used the same method as a reference. I'm thinking the after is around 14% ??? And yes, i'm sucking it in ;) Let me know what you guys estimate it at. Lastly, thanks for the encouragement...now off to 11-12% bye!
