Re: Weight Loss - Tips & Daily Check-in
Well, no turning back now. I'm currently at 6', 205lbs of solid notmuscle, and it's time for a change. With help from Jonesy and NDAlum, i've gotten solid advice, tailored a diet and workout, and i've now got everything for my diet in the house. Fully committed now, as I don't have much of a choice. All I have in the house for myself to eat is stuff from my diet. I actually threw out some of the fattier snacks that only I would eat, so I don't have anything to fall back on. Now, just to keep myself away from Tim Horton's for coffee (brew it at home on the Keurig, just black with no cream or sugar) and any fast food place for meals.
I was actually suprised, as groceries were not much more expensive than usual. My wife isn't eating all too much anyways, being pregnant and all, along with having gestational diabetes. My boy hardly ever eats, even when we make him, but he's healthy as a horse. All I really had to change was my portion of the groceries. The protein shot this bill a little higher ($15), but it should last me a month, so it's not bad. I also had to pick up tupperware for my meals, a shaker for the protein shakes, and razor blades, which I won't need to buy for another couple months. So after this week, groceries will actually be about the same price as usual, which is very exciting, as I thought it would skyrocket.
I'll start some high intensity interval training on Monday to coincide with the diet. I figure 3 days a week with the HIIT on the exercise bike, and 2 just doing body weight workouts (pushups, pullups, etc.) will take care of the fitness aspect, and the diet should take care of the rest.
Wish me luck fellas, no turning back now!
