Hi guys im here to lose some weight for this summer. Hopefully by the end of the summer i will of lost 30 pounds.
I am 16, weighing 181 pounds, male.
I've been working out everyday at the gym after school for the passed 4 months. My weight hasn't changed by much but I have built alot of muscle, meaning that i must of lost weight. I haven't been in the last week or so due to the fact that I can't afford the membership ($50/mo). I live in a unhealthy family so it is hard for me to keep off the weight because they buy all the junk. My girlfriend says i am not fat and i disagree. The reason I am trying to lose weight is not because of my girlfriend but beause I want to live healthier and I want to prove to my friends that I can lose weight, being a guy all my friends always say as a joke "hey fatty" and I want to lose that reputation.
I have alot of friends, and everyone enjoys being around me because im comical (Like most fat people, i believe this is true) and my personality is great. I was lucky to find my girlfriend and she is thankfully not shallow but I know inside she wouldnt mind if I lost a few pounds because she looks great and I dont.
So what I am planning to do is try to get that gym membership back and start exercising again. When I went to the gym I just lifted weights. I went from benching 65 pounds to 135 pounds in just 3-4 months of going to the gym for a hour. I would think that is pretty good, So I must of lost some weight I am not sure though. I do not know how to calculate fat %.
Anyways here is my plan:
- Eat less, Instead of eating until im 100% full, Im pllanning to eat to 75% full.
- Eat Healthier, No more snacks, No more chips, No more fast food.
- Morning exercise: 30-50 pushups, 75-100 situps, 10 pullups, and 30-hour jog.
- After school: Play sports with friends.
Some things I've had problems with:
- Living with a divorced family its hard to exercise at my dads because it is not a kids neighboorhood and nothing to do. But this summer my dad is moving into a new house with a basketball net/swimming pool. Which would help alot!
- Computer, I'm addicted to myspace, msn, and web design. Need to slow down.
- Laziness. While being in school I do nothing. I just talk, I dont know if this is just lazy and is a problem or not but I try to think of reasons not to go to school.
- Don't want to tell my parents im trying to lose weight. I need help with this one, I dont want them to think im depressed or something because Im such a happy person, seriously this would probally be the hardest part.
Thank you for everyone who has read this, And tell me if:
