Alright who's in?
My man Puddy I know you're in.

Heres the deal, we post our stats, diet, pics, and goals and we have until 1/1/05 to make it happen.

I'll go first.

AGE: 28
Height: 5'11"
Weight: 207 lbs
BF%: 24% not sure how accurate
Waist: 37"
Bicep: 14"
Chest: 40"

Stats will be updated weekly

Goal: 180 lbs by 1/1/05 or AB's visible which ever comes first. Would say a certain amount of BF% but I don't think Im that accurate with my FIT Tracker calipers.

Plan: Cardio daily, sometimes 2X a day.
Abs 3x week
Will resume lifting after Im below 200 lbs, I know, I know I need
to lift, its just a mental thing for me.

LETS GO!

Here I am

Today:

Diet:
1) 2 servings Wheat Bran and 1 cup skim milk
2) Lean Body Meal Replacment Shake
3) Bean & Beef Chili
4) Grilled Chicken Sandwich plain

Total Cals: 1153 p/c/f=37/49/14


Workout:
Treadmill: 6.5 mph for 15 minutes
Elliptical: 15 minutes

My starting point:

196.0 lbs
20.3% BF


Goal:

< 173 lbs by the new year


Plan:

- Maintain diet based on BMR method. Eat healthy. Focus is calories, but trying to stay somewhat close to 40/40/20 macronutrient split
- Cardio 3x a week starting out with 40 min @ 70% MHR, then progressing to HIIT when that gets too easy
- Weight training (once I get some gear... for now just body weight exercises)
- Ice hockey 2-4x per week


Pics to come...

Yesterdays cals were too low

AM-30 minutes cardio (walking on incline)
Noon Hour-32 minutes cardio Elliptical (15 sec all out, out of every minute)
PM-AB workout

Diet:
1) 2 servings Wheat Bran and 1 cup skim milk
2) 2.5 servings Tuna with TBSP Miracle Whip Light
3) Pita with little bit of ham, lettuce, tomatoe, and avocado
4) Salmon with wheat pasta and tomatoe sauce

Good luck guys. Wallerdc id recommend using a dietary tracking program till you get good at keeping a mental tab on calories. You gotta make sure to not eat too little.

Deafngari, thanks for chiming in.

I use Diet Power, which by the way is a very good program. I know that I am way undereating, my macros' are way off, so I definately need to fix that. Work has just been crazy for the wife and I so we haven't had the chance to get to the grocery store. All Ive been eating is the best possible choices of what we already have.

I will be going to the store probably tonight or tomorrow night, so I can stock up on all the good stuff.

take care
