Fat Enders

Keep at it, my friend.

Thanks, I am.    I just wish I had more progress.

Lay off the donuts.

Today's weight: 220

15 to go (to the first goal; might go lower)

[greg]

This morning I was at 272.  Which is outrageous (even if I am tall).

I want to get down to 220. 

Wouldn't that be your second goal, technically? You just accomplished your first goal.

Hey. What do you know about that? I'd totally forgotten about my first goal.

Yay me.

06-08-10: 190  . I'm 5'9 so under the BMI chart I'm listed as "overweight." I would have to lose 25 pounds to be listed as "healthy." I'm 24 years old.

I've began dieting and two exercise routines:

http://www.coolrunning.com/engine/2/2_3/181.shtml

And this:

Workout A
3x5 Squat
3x5 Bench Press
1x5 Deadlift
2x5-8 dips (only add weight if you are doing >10 bodyweight dips)

Workout B
3x5 Squat
3x5 Standing military press
3x5 Pendlay Rows (or power cleans for 5x3, 5 sets of 3 reps apiece)
2x5-8 chinups ***if you do the power cleans, do 3 sets of chinups

Week 1
Monday: A
Wednesday:B
Friday: A

Week 2
Monday: B
Wednesday: A
Friday:B

Etc. Keep rotating

So on the day I'm resting from weight lifting I jog and the day the day I'm resting from jogging I lift. Sundays I rest.

Last week I started doing the weightlifting and only today did I add the jogging/walking. I want to be in shape by the end of summer!

I think the hardest part for me might be the dieting, so starting today I bought apples, peaches and carrots to help me cope with my smaller portions!

I've reached another plateau. Ho hum.
