++Weight Tracker++ Lost 4lbs in 6 Days ! Woot! Currently weighing: 251lbs -- 08/09/09 will update every 10 days About Me Hello there everybody of Basil! My name is Jamie and I am 17 years old and weigh a whopping 255lbs. I am 6 feet tall and wear XXL (Canadian) shirts. Yes.. that's a big size indeed. I wear 36-34 pants and my waist is 44' (ouch). I am in Grade 12 this year and the reason why I want to lose weight is for myself basically. I seen pictures of me and I was flabbergasted and disappointed. I want to change myself this year so that I actually in reality accomplished something for myself. I'm also sick of being called the "big guy" and just being huge. I'm not saying I'm fat cause surely I do have a lot of it, but I also have a bigger build (shoulders and back). What I am about to do (hopefully, but am determined) is to lose 55lbs in 90 days or 1 inch every 10 days . My goal is to reach 200lbs and then most likely 180, but for now 200lbs. I want to go from a waist of 44 to 35. The reason why I'm posting a daily journal on Basil because it seems like it will get me to be more motivated so I can share myself to everyone and how I am doing. I hope this helps everyone out there who wants to lose weight! Diet and Workouts Now, I'm not really a fan of diets, but I can assure you I will be going on one after 10 days. This is the breaking point where I will be getting used to my exercise and seeing results. If you have any diet plans to recommend, please don't be a stranger, share with me and the world what you do or what you know works best! What I am doing for my so called "diet" is just cutting back on the greasy, deep-fried, crispy foods and just eating healthier. I've been cutting back on junk food and sugary drinks and going the healthy way. My favourite sugary drink is Iced Tea (Canadian style, not American) and I gotta say I LOVE it, but that's my problem. Iced tea is VERY comparable to any soda pop beverage. Other than that, I love my water. Water is what I drink all the time.. more than the average day. I've also been cutting down on the amounts of food I consume; sticking to portion sizes and having my intake of fruits and vegetables ;3. My workouts are 40 minutes - 1 hour a day, everyday and consists of these routines: Total Body Fitness, Lower Body Fitness, Cardio, Yoga Flex, and Abs. I do a vast amount of work outs that work out basically everything and they're pretty fun. I enjoy them very much and the trainer is fun and out going. I can go into detail about them, but I have homework to do so I'll get on that later... Journal Day 8 - September 10, 2009 Today was a decent day . In the morning I was tired and didn't feel that chatty. I ate a bowl of Life multigrain cereal and had myself a cup of water. I went to my classes and now have a bunch of homework and for lunch I had a Greek wrap and another grilled chicken salad and two bottles of water. I had a banana for a snack in between lunch and end of the school day. In my third peri

MzStuhSinMan : 90 days 55 pounds. That's going to be some hard work, and is going to take major dedication. You'll have to do cardio such as biking, running, jogging, and swimming. Do cardio more than you do core training such as sit ups, crunches and so on. Good Luck. Yeah, I should add my work outs. Im working on Cardio, Abs, Yoga, Total Body, Lower Body, and Abs.

That must suck being made fun of. I remember this guy in my gym class who was fat and everyone teased him about it. Good luck losing weight.

Question: Can you find your P3nis?

Alright first you're gonna need to do alot of cardio (Swimming and jogging on the treadmill is what I recommend). Try finding your target heart rate (The rate of which you heart beats per minute which is efficient enough to burn fat) and start doing cardio! Your diet plan should be something like this (It's what I use) 9:00 am: * 3 egg whites * 1 whole egg * � ounce of shredded cheese (doesn't matter what kind; low fat preferably) * 1 tablespoon natural peanut butter 12:00 pm: * 5-8 oz of baked chicken salmon (no grease just spray with Pam and put in the toaster oven) * 1 cup whole green beans 4:00 pm: * Protein shake (optional), or a banana or yougurt after your cardio 6:00 pm: * 5-8 oz baked chicken or salmon * 1 cup whole green beans 8:00 pm: * 5-8 oz chicken or salmon 10:30 pm: * Yogurt or banana And drink alot of water, whenever you feel hungry, drink water, cause most of the time whenever you feel hungry, it's just that your thirsty and need water. And be sure to get motivation! Use your favorite idols (Bruce lee, chuck norris or whoever) and take pictures of yourself regularly to see if you're making progress or not and see what needs to be changed. Let your friends and family motivate you too!

Just join a sport and go to each practice. Two hours of a sports practice will help you lose an easy 20-30 pounds.. I do that every year. I gain 20 pounds over the summer and then lose it off by the end of football and come out stronger.

I'm underweight with a BMI of 19. Here's what to do: Prevent yourself from drinking ANY soft drink for the rest of your life. If you go to a fast food restaurant, don't buy anything more than fries. In fact, don't even buy fries. Don't even bother breathing the air outside a fast food chain. Exercise. Right before a shower, right after a shower, right when you wake up, or when you're going to dinner or going upstairs from dinner. If you're charging down the stairs, jump the last few steps if the floor won't give away. Before a shower, circle your arms in wide radii. After a shower, hop to the toilet or counter or wherever your glasses are, if you have them. Jump into bed. Roll out of bed. Little things. And if you're ever going to eat take-out, make it Indian food. Never pizza or Chinese food.

H8yurguts : Question: Can you find your ----? Yep, I can. I think you're thinking about people over 350+. I can easily see it when looking down, so at least I have some dignity left over.
