nc4XL? Biggest Losers!

Guys one thing I really haven't seen mentioned is DRINK MORE WATER !

STOP drinking so much soda. Replace it with water. It will take 3-4 weeks for you to stop missing the soda and feel better but it will happen. I will drink soda on occasion but I don't crave it.

STOP eating MAYONNAISE and other BS foods. When my dad had his heart issues a few years back, Dr. said if you stop eating 1 thing, make it Mayo. I use mustard on everything, samwhiches, fish, etc.. Oil vinigar on my subs and salads.

BTW: That Dr. Furman plan sounds good, I listen to him on the talk radio show. Eat more nuts/berries, (micro nutrients) sounds reasonable..

I won't post my size/weight...
 
I'm in.

Starting at 245# as of last night at the gym
6'-2", 30 years old.

I have no real goal for weight loss as I am lifting quite a bit at the gym at the same time, so my weight loss will be offset by muscle gain. I'm just looking to get a better look versus loosing a ton of weight.

I've cut out soft drinks totally and have been limiting how many carbs and sugars I eat. Other than that, I typically eat about the same except with some smaller portions. This worked great a couple years ago and let me loose about 25 lbs in a 3 month period even without working out.

Also, I'm hitting the gym at least every other night. Started in mid December once my gym membership expired at my old place and I joined a new place much closer to my house.

If I were to put a weight goal on it, I'd say at least 225# so I can go skydiving this summer.
 
Starting Weight: 192#
Height: 5'10"
Goal(s) 175# (trim fat, add muscle, so not shooting for too much weight loss, anything is better than the 225# I weight freshmen year)
21yrs old

Your Diet Plan: Normal diet, extra protein, haven't had a soft drink in a couple years except the occasional gas station stop when I refuse to pay $1.29 for water but am still thirsty, lift 4-5 days a week, run 4-5 days a week, possibly trying that P90X deal, one of my buddies at the gym has the dvds.
 
I'll play. I started my diet the first Monday this past November. 5' 10" and weighed in at 220.
I got on the scale this past Monday and weigh 192! I used to drink 2 NOS drinks every day and cut that out. I still eat more or less what I want, I just cut out about eating 2/3 of what I normally eat. I stopped all of my snacking on chips and junk when I'm off and have been eating more salads. Now my fat clothes aren't tight anymore! :Rockon:
 
Im in Im goin from 33" swampers to 38's and it will be a pain in the ass to get in my yota.:lol:

Mine:

Trying to get down to 250. Im am very broad shouldered and do not have a lot of loose skin or hanging fat etc. My doctor mentioned to me that at 250 I would be ripped up.

I work out with the P90X system. Its not bull shit like most people think it is. I have had good results out of it the first time I did it.

Foods: Chicken and Veggies most of the time. Tryign to cut out all Fast Food.

Yeah it works but its def. time consuming thats for sure. I have a hard time doing all 6 days especially on friday and saturday.
 
I'm pretty much done this year just trying to tone up etc but I'll post mine from last year til this year since I'm kind of proud of myself

-BREAKFAST! Eat a bowl of good cereal, oatmeal, etc. Get your metabolism going strong.
-Cut out all sodas/fast food. Lean cuisine for lunch. Replace soda with water. Limit to like half a cup of coffee in the morn.
50 crunches in the morning, 50 before bed
alternating days on workouts, no cardio minus some nightly exercise with blondes and brunettes.
-MRP shake at night and salad/sandwhich on wheat.
Takes alot of work but it feels pretty good when you meet your goal. Just remember eating a candy bar only tastes good for a minute and it take awhile to work it off.
 
I'm in too.

31 years old, 6'3", 247 lbs. Was 252 last Monday. I am medically obese going by my BMI... not in reality.

But I hit the gym everyday before work and have for 5 years now. 45 minutes of structured weight training and 30 minutes of cardio daily.

My chest is 52", my waist is 36". The BMI scale is a little off in my case. I need to be 195 to be healthy as far as BMI goes.

Shooting for 230 lbs and see how that looks and how I feel.
 
As of 5 Jan 09:

Stats:

Age: 25
Height: 5'11"
Weight: 164.6 lbs
Body Fat: 6.9%

Diet:

I strictly follow the "Eat Right 4 Your Type" guidelines. This is the idea that your health is directly related to how foods interact with your body, based on your bloodtype.

*I seriously believe that this diet change is the single best thing that I have done for myself and my physical performance. I am much more in tune with how my body is feeling and what I can expect in terms of how I feel, as soon as I wake up in the morning. I have never felt as clean and as well connected to my being.

Additionally, I have been fast food and soft drink free for about 3 years. I strongly recommend it. I also try to drink about a gallon of water every day. I might have a beer a week and no more than 5 or 6 shots of Turkey ;)

Work outs:

Monday- off

Tuesday- full body workout for 1:45, followed by cardio for another hour

Wednesday- 2 hours minimum on the bike (stationary trainer at this point in the season)

Thursday- see Tuesday

Friday- Stair sets in the local park, followed by 2 hours on the bike

Saturday- If the weather is decent, Im usually on the bike for a minimum of 4 hours. With this shitty winter we've been having, its been hardcore gym time instead. Minimum of 3 hours, mix of weights and cardio, but with no specific schedule of exercises.

Sunday- Either a day long hike, long ride (med. intensity) or something else outside.

Additionally, I swim at least three days a week for a minimum of an hour, but on no set schedule.

My goals for the year:

-Maintain bf of 8.5%
-Padden Triathlon (my training for the past two months and for the next 6 has been for this specifically, on top of my other cycling improvments.
-Eat foods from other cultures for at least 30% of my meals.

(wordy, i know...im at work and bored)
 
You should drink two alcoholic drinks every day.

Doctor's orders. (Seriously)
