Apologys for the cringe-worthy title
(Did write a massive diary and my pc decided to die so that was nice)
Any I'm new here and haven't introduced myself yet , so for anyone reading this , hey i'm j
Down to business...I'm 21 and 6"4 , my starting weight was 309 lbs on november 19th 2010 I'm now down to 229 lbs today (17/2/11)
I'm looking to lose another 25 lbs in the next 2 months , which i know sounds near impossible but with the way i've been going and my current progress i firmly believe i can do it and to me mindset is EVERYTHING
For the last few months i've been VERY strict and dedicated - haven't eaten "bad" once and only got very very drunk once (ofcourse i have been coerced into having the odd drink but i try to stay away from it)
but since mid january of this year.. I've been unable to workout and exercise due to (wait for it) 2 x concussion , 1 x fractured wrist , 1 x dislocated thumb , 1 x broken index finger and a dodgy ankle that just doesn't want to see me happy! but i'm all healed up now finally and i'm back to my workout routine.
Now alot of people tell me how i eat is pretty bad for me , or how little i eat should i say but i want to make it clear that i don't starve myself and i never go hungry and manage to eat 3 meals a day.I haven't eaten over 1000 kcal in a single day since i started - doesn't sound like much but i struggle to eat that much sometimes.
Now with regards to workout i've been adding more and more as my fitness improves but my daily routine goes like this
wake up - 10k / 30 mins cycling (don't even know what it's called but i have a bike that doesn't go anywhere when you peddle in my room)
eat breakfast - large-ish bowl of cereal (50g) - 200kcal
fast walk - 2 miles to the local shop where i usualy buy a pepsi max or something (i'm a sucker for fizzy drinks ) - get back in 20 mins or so
work - don't do much
eat lunch - usualy somesort of white meat i.e chicken / turkey / fish (250-300 kcal)
get home - relax for an hour
HIIT training on punchbag (50kg bag) - 15 mins
30 more mins of cycling - again 10km usualy
15 mins of punchbag (less intensity but i don't stop)
and usualy finish by doing squats/curls for around 20 mins
eat dinner - again some sort of protein i.e steak/chicken/fish/prawns (500-600kcal)
relax/go out
bed
I also play american football on sundays for 3 hours , which is the most intense workout i've ever done , I only took it up 5 weeks ago but i love it , wish it was more popular in the UK.
Looking foward to making this diary happen and getting back into it
Like i said i'm not very "technical" with my weightloss i don't know the science of it at all , so if there's any words of advice or support they would be greatly appreciated!
