So, to break my bad eating habits, I'm making a change...
i try and eat healthy also, but every so often, i have to get a chicken quesadilla at taco bell. it's the melted cheese and jalapeno sauce that get me. later.
wouldnt it be easier to just hit the gym every 2nd or 3rd day for 45 minutes to an hour? that way you can still eat all you like?
bad food is bad food, working out doesn't change that; throughout the last three years, I have lost about 40lbs by just eating good food, I rarely workout.
Surveyed Facts:
1900:
North American person vegetable consumption: 300lbs grains/year 200lb
Today:
Vegetable consumption down by 50%
milk consumption up 200%
beef consumption up 150%
chicken consumption up 280%
today's average North American person in their lifetime will eat:
15 cows
24 hogs
12 sheep
900 chicken
1000lbs of other assorted animals

How much does 10lbs translate to consumption? How long does that last you?
Well my other 6 pound whey bag (sam's club cheap whey) lasted 2 months.
But I usually take 2 shakes a day on workout days and 1 shake on non-workout days. At the moment, Im tryin to lose more bodyfat so Im mixing with water, not milk. Somedays I get sick of water and do half water and half milk.

Nope
Having a healthy mind and body requires getting plenty of exercise, maintaining healthy eating habits, and getting an appropriate about of rest. Slacking in even one area and turning it up in another will not make up the difference, and you will be able to tell the difference.
Don't forget to buy a couple of small cotton shirts. Wear them in places that will have a high female attendance, than it's show time. Flex the pecks so that the shirt rips off. You'll be beating em off with a stick! =p
good luck Deev, Im just tryin to kick pop out of my diet. caffience addiction has me shakin.
Yeah, I've been hooked on Monster energy drinks myself... that's tough to kick. Not only the effects (which I don't even feel anymore), but the taste. i love those damn things!

I've gone from Large to Medium shirts.
Before:
Summer 07 - 220lbs, maybe more. 230 was my heaviest.
April 08 - about 195-200.
September 08 - About 185lbs.
I weighed in at 179 last week. Losing weight is becoming less important now, and building muscle is my primary goal. If I lose too much weight and build no muscle, I'll just be scrawny!
