JT, keep your protein intake high and lift as heavy as you can....you will be back in no time!

Some magic started to happen 2 days ago. Details soon

I stopped working out. It's been at least a month, maybe more. I went from 205 down to 185....damn creatine! At least I can fit into my pants again...

I fell off the wagon too. I stopped running but mainly because it was making me too lean. I accomplished what I wanted as far as getting my breath back after quitting smoking but I was supposed to start lifting a lil more along with push up and crunches to gain a lil and cut it up. Yeahhhh never got around to that part yet but I think it's mainly due to a lot going on like my grandfather passing, helping my mom and grandmother out with all the stuff that followed that, Ashley and I trying to get the whole marriage thing in order. Once everything calms down I think I'll be able to focus on my body again. Just gotta let my brain get some rest!

I feel ya Derrick. Too much stuff going on here as well, the gym isnt even in the back of my head. Although my brother wants to hit the gym with my a few times a week, so maybe that's motivation to start up again.

Daaamn rolo, good job keep it up!

+1 to shit getting in the way. I was doing real well this winter, running everyday and hitting the gym and snowboarding every weekend. I was able to drop from 260 to 220 but then I blew out my knee for the second time and had to stop all exercise. Drove me insane. I just started back at the gym after 7 months, surgery and rehab and daaaaamn does it feel good. Im tippin the scales @ 235 right now and hoping to get down to a ripped ~200. My biggest problem though is my diet I dont get home till late and by the time I get out of the gym its even later and my desire to cook something healthy is out the window. If anyone has any good for you, really easy recipes throw them up. Im sure im not the only one ni this boat.

cooking healthy is easy.  just stock your house with tons of fresh veggies, fruits and yes, even meats.  stay the F away from the crappy, premade, unhealthy ready-to-eat meals.  if your kitchen is stocked up with good stuff then you have no choice but to cook.  thats what i do.

awesome side dish i found the other day.
- cut up a head of cauliflower (btw im not a fan of cauliflower, but this was bomb) and put in large baking dish.
- add 3 cloves of garlic - diced
- drizzle olive oil on it.
- squeeze half lemon (or more) of lemon juice on it.
- salt/pepper
- bake 20 mins @ 400 uncovered until cauliflower starts to brown
- top with parmigian cheese

Time to bump this thread! All you lazy fuckers get off your ass and go do something!! Hit the gym, shoot some hoops, get on your bike, go chase that skirt around your neighborhood instead of looking through the blinds at her....Dooo ettt!!!!!

Maybe reading my own words will make me get off my lazy ass and into the gym. 4 months of being completely dormant. It's taking a toll on my body and mind. Anyways, get to it, not tomorrow, not next week, not for new years. Do it, now...today....I am.

[b_beau_09]

[slipkord]

You have PM sir!

[b_beau_09]

respondeddd. hahaha

BOT:  seriously I've lost about 5lbs.. since I've been with her.. (bout 3 months or so) without changing my diet, or excercising for reals. lol

[wtcii]

I started running again. Lets see how long it last this time. I should start back biking, havent since august, but its not very safe around here to bike. I'm thinking I should lose about ten pounds. Im 5"11" 185 and probably should be about 175.

I'm going to start up shooting basketball. I've got a new goal just sitting in my driveway, I've played maybe a few times on it. I've got a bike I need to get a new chain and tires on it, small stuff. I really need a buddy to get in shape with. Everyone I know doesnt have time or is fat. So im just screwed.

Listen DICK there nothing wrong with being fat I actually promised myself today that I’m going to at least start making smarter dietary decisions. I'm so far out of shape it's ridiculous but, I feel I should change the diet first.
