well, im 20, 6'1 and weighed 280 lbs when i started about 2 weeks ago (havent weighed myself to since then). ive always been strong, but always been fat too.
my goals are to lose ~50 lbs of fat and build muscle mass. my diet has gotten pretty strict over the past week and i intend to stick to it. during the day at work, i eat 4 times, every 2.5 hours or so. a half of a boiled chicken breast and a small piece of steamed broccoli. when i get home, i eat veggies. like tonight i ate some asparagus and green beans fried in olive oil with a little salt and pepper, and some tofu, onions, and eggplant. i usually drink a lot of water too, my guess would be ~1.5-2 liters a day. im going to the gym to lift on mon, wed, fri, and on sun when i feel like it. oh, i also started taking hydroxycut for energy and for an extra boost in metabolism. my friend has been taking them for ~2 months and swears by them, but hes a lot leaner than me at 6' 6'' and 180. today i picked up a multi-vitamin also. as for cardio, im jogging one mile on thurs and sat. when i hit the gym, about half a mile- 2/10ths warm up, and 1/10th every so often to keep my heart rate up between sets.
anything i should be doing different?
