I'm in the same boat with you. I'm starting today.. I've got a friend coming over to fight with on wednesday, I'm starting weight training today and working on building wind endurance today. I'm actually loading up on lean protein to help me gain some bulk.

Wehay, lost 5lbs so far...I have to admit I've been going at this quite half-arsed so far.

I'm going to start going swimming again next week (when I'm not on nightshifts) and also got my weight training planned out

Time to shit some lbs!

I use a food processor, but I didn't let it run any longer than I normally would... Maybe next time.

s7eve · 07-14-2008, 06:23 PM

I've been doing it by hand

up to half an hour of kneading wholemeal pasta until it is silky smooth is hard work

I don't want to see the biceps of an Italian woman.

My progress report:

I've really slacked off the last week, no walking, poor eating habits and a few drinks of scotch straight. I've lost weight but not the kind I want, I'm down to 66 kg but with the same body fat percentage so I'm losing lean muscle mass. Time to start weights I think and get back to eating correctly.

This is my first time posting in here since this all started, so here's a quicky update:

I've been at it for these three weeks or so now, and it's starting to feel good. I'm eating a bit better, and I'm a bit more active. I feel that I've lost a pretty fair amount of weight (enough to make me have to move the belt in a notch). My cardio stamina has increased a good bit, too.

Tonight, I pushed myself a little more than usual during my elliptical workout. I typically stayed at around 45rpm for the full 20 minutes. Today, I kept it above 55 the entire time. I had to take two 30 second breaks, but I definitely felt good after doing it. I'm still doing weights, as well, just not as much or as strenuous as I am on the cardio stuff. My fat-ass needs more constant energy, not short bursts of it =)

Been running 2 miles a day for the past few days.

What a workout!

A whole 16 minutes

Time to hit the gym again.

Buzz762 · 07-19-2008, 04:17 PM

I've been sore every morning for the past 5 days.
I love it

My arms and shoulders are particularly sore today from moving Rescue Randy around all day during equipment training. I have a feeling this new job is going to keep me in shape regardless of whether I'm working out at home or not.

Keep it up, you pukes! I know you can do it!

Motivation is key. Find what motivates you.

I haven't been able to do any exercising because of lack of time and general health (I've been sick a lot lately), but I haven't gained a pound. I think I've gotten the in:out ratio balanced pretty well. That or my muscles are atrophying while I get fatter.
