I'm embarking on a new fitness lifestyle that basically involves old fashioned eating, new fasioned exercise, common sense, and I expect it to work well.
This involves using absolutely no supplements, no cardio, and maybe a few minutes of lifting a week. My goal is to lose 40 pounds ( preferrably mostly fat, but I am sure some will be muscle. I will take that as I want to be smaller and more functional)
Background: I was fat from about age 13 to 17. Not obese but too fat for a teenage guy. Since I had a growth spurt when I was about 11-12 but didnt grow at all from 13-15 I was rathy pudgy for my height. But around age 16-17, I grew taller( to about 5'9 but I kept growing til age 21 to about 6'1) and weighed maybe about 160. I basically stayed the same weight but grew 5-6 inches in height. It was simple: I ate less and worked out intensely with weights.
My weight creeped up to about 190-195 by 18 but it was mostly thick muscle on my chest and shoulders ( I gained about 30 pounds and people were telling me I looked like I lost weight). Around this time I became obsessed with getting ripped. I took Hydroxycut ( NO ONE else knew what this was it the time), Ultimate Orange, Anotesten, Nortesten,Mesotech all that shit, you name it I took it. I also ran every other day. I got down to about 161 at bodyfat of 10% ( calipers) and a 31 inch waist, but I was not cut at all and felt really flat. I stopped running and stopped taking most shit and got up to about 185 at 15%BF(according to Tanita). and size 34 pants. This was my alltime best condition IMO.(This whole paragraph happened over about exactly a year 6/97 to 6/98).
Honestly I was always very motivated from being poor, a social outcast,etc so always had my edge. Then I got a girlfriend, stop being hungry, and got lazy as hell. My weight since then has fluctuated bewteen 195-230 but mostly around 205 or so.
But these days its just pathetic. Keep in mind I have done it all , every supplement, Atkins,etc with some success with everything but my health has really just drifted. This summer I found myself at about 225 with a 40 inch waist ( still struggling into 36 pants though). When I was 5'9 I could vertically dunk a basketall. Now at 6'1 I cant even touch the rim. I overreat at every meal, and found myself eating shit like Hardees Thickburger Meals, Double Whopper COmbos, Quiznos large subs ( all King sized meals with large soft drink of course)etc, at least once and sometimes 2-3 times a day. I was also lifting at a better and more disciplined routine than I had in years, but I just got fatter because lifting so much made me hungry. I stopped lifting because beyond my control I no longer have access to my equipment and workout space. So I just got even worse. Also from ahving SA and depression it is a lot easier for me to eat by going to drive thrus late at night,etc.
Here is my "plan" and I lost 5 pounds in a week (thanksgiving week and I ate a big meal).I am trying to get to 180. It may take me about 8 more months depending on how slow it goes ( 1lb a week avg) but I accept that.
I am trying to make rational conscious decisions and effort to be healthier and this does not involve any fad diets. From so much reading and research I have determined that a balanced diet ( yes, like the pyramid but slightly different) is best. I use a site called Fitday.com to track everything I eat and every activity. If you are on a fitness plan, YOU MUST KEEP A LOG if you are really serious. Its simple to do and I cannot stress this enough. My goal is simply to eat balanced and create a daily calorie deficit of about 500 calories ( will lose 1 pound a week). This lets me eat upto around 3000 calories and STILL LOSE WEIGHT. It really is a simple thing, anyway you twist it, to lost weight you need to take in less calories than you use. My maintenance at my weight is over 3000 calories. I dont starve myself, no low carb, and no protein supplements. My study has led me to believe that even bodybuilders need no more than 15-25% of calories from protein and soemwhere between 40-60% carbs with the balance from fat. The problem with carbs is not carbs but white bread and shitty carbs with no nutrients and no fiber that most people eat. Low carbs shrinks your muscle and can cause mental fog IMO and experience. Honestly you could eat 100% carbs and lose weight as long as its less than your maintenance calories ( though it would be bad nutrition). The fact is every nutrient you really need can be obtained at the grocery store and through a blanced diet. If any of these diets really were good diets they wouldnt require all these supplements. I was taking fish oils and multivitamin, but no strictly no supplements. Why take pills that IMo are unatural for the body to digest when you can eat fresh fish, spinach, fruits, vegetabes, almonds,olive oil,etc?
As far as working out, well I am using a very controversial plan that Id rather not say too much abotu until after the next six months to 1 year where I am a guinea pig. Lets jsut say this , even HIT/Heavy Duty Mike Menzter people spend a lot more time lifting than I do. And I sure as hell am not doing any cardio or anything else unnecesary that can strip my muscle and fuck my joints. I expect to be very successful. My utlimate goal is to actually gain strength and muscle size while losing 35 pounds of weight.
So there it is , I went from a diet and supplement JUNKIE to eating only food, drinking only water ( even fruit juice is a terrible thing to drink, eat the fuckin fruit), and living rationally. I plan to continue to apply these same "new" principles to my Penis Enlargement which I expect to blast through new levels of mass.
