will I need a food scale to weigh my food? This math stuff is not registiring in my mind at all . I think I am going to start all this after christmas . That way I will have a fresh start and learn more till then . So I know in my mind I will have it all down and ready to go and I will take a pic of myself Jan.1 2005 . So I can see how I am progressing with my new me . Do you have a problem with women approching you or you approching them after your body change? Oh ya one more thing ,when I reach my goal weight what do I do then ? Keep dieting or what do I do ?
hey hermit i sent you an email to [email protected]
hermit, welcome to the board brother. i feel for you man, i really do. and youre right, no way you should end your life. and ill tell you what, whoever told you it was too late to get back in great shape needs to be punished!!! there is nothing FURTHER from the truth. these guys have given you great tips so far, stick to them. and about starting january 1st, good job, but i would go ahead and start getting yourself ready now for the big change. no pigging out, no fast food or candy or sodas or anything. if you stick to the tips given to you above, and really really stick to them good, i guarantee by summer 2005, you will have lost between 20-50 pounds, maybe more. definitely take that picture, id love to see your progress. and as for your question as to what you do when you finally reach your goal? thats up to you. you can either do maintenance to stay where your at, or try to bulk muscle up for an even better look. anything you want to do you can do it if you really put your mind to it. again, welcome, and dont be afraid to ask questions!!!!!!

I know you guys have been throu the tough times and know alot about this stuff but for me the war starts and I am going to need lots of help . I am glad I am getting the answers I have been longing for . I used to be a babe magnet in high school . But ever since then everything has been down hill since all of my friends are gone and women don't even look at me or give me the time of day. I don't want to be like this for the rest of my life . I need to take action cause I am not getting any younger . I thank all you guys for your help very much and wish you all a happy holidays and merry christmas ...

Oh I almost forgot . I need help with what to eat I have been checking the diets on the board but I just don't know . I need help building one for myself that will be easy to follow and not get boring . If I have to eat it I will ... I know I need to take multi vitmins but is the protine shake really needed ?
Here are what I consider the staples in my diet:
Protein:
Tuna
Chicken breast
Eggs
Tilapia (fish)
Mahi Mahi (fish)
LEAN ground turkey
LEAN ground meat (occasionally)
Carbs:
Brown rice
Sweet potato
Low sugar cereal
Whole wheat bread
whole wheat pasta
Oatmeal (just oats, not sugary kind)
Others:
Vegatables
Tabasco sauce (good for flavor)
Tony Cachere's (good for spice)
Multivitamin
Vitamin C
Whey protein
Lots of water 1-2 gallons a day
My diet is boring and plain. But it is easy and works for me. I like to try and plan/make my meals 2-3 days ahead of time. That way I'm not trying to figure out what I am going to eat, get frustrated, and then just go buy fast food. My meals consist of eating a serving of carbs and a serving of protein each time. Not rocket science. At night, I eat less carbs so that it doesn't convert to fat while I sleep. I usually don't eat any carbs past 8:00 at night.
Protein shakes are not necessary but it does help. I usually have 1-2 a day because they are quick and convenient. It is difficult to get the required amount of proteins from food alone. So if you can afford it whey protein is good. A lot of people here suggest Optimum Nutrition. I use www.allthewhey.com. Just my preference.
I know I left a lot out but my post was already getting too long
. Someone else will jump in and help out.
