I've wanted to lose weight for awhile and a competition can help make it easier to motivate oneself. I'll give it a go! I'm 265 lbs atm, so not that far off yours, lets give it a try. Any basic plans on how to lose the weight? (I'm going to steal any you share, just so you know. =P)
Pretty much I have a plan. You have to make your own plan basically. You can check out things over at the Health and Fitness initiative here, or maybe even read a book on it. You want to find something that sounds doable for you and stick to it. !

Also, Sheth, have you read anything about Paleo? If not, I suggest you do.

That would make things interesting and maybe motivate to try to run a bit longer for example than just posting numbers? Please also be really careful with diets because nutrition is not something you should underestimate as its kind of complicated and a topic that has a LOT to give. So research there is gonna take a while but the worth it in the end. I think you still will train SC2 so you gotta have enough energy to do that :D Thinking about participating but for me % would work , but well, thats something you can add easily Yea you bet, I'll happily post workouts and what I ate and such. Not really sure where I'll post it, but I'll figure something out! Maybe start a blog here? That way it's convenient but you don't have to worry about people QQing about spam?

Sheth it takes a true man to post something like this, and I hop everyone is with you on this as am I.
Good Luck Sheth and I wish you get the best results. In sc2 and with yourself!!!!

Ive went from 190 pounds to 170 in 6 weeks, the hardest part was actually the beginning because it was such a rigorous regime that included both exercise and diet, and you wont see results at the beginning so you always feel it is not working, but when it starts to work and i lost my first 5 pounds a swear the other 15 fell off instantly with the motivation i got.

Good Luck Man, im sure anything you put your mind to you can do. You have to really want it though and push yourself!!! I hope you post your status as im sure we all rooting for you<3

Bahahaha yes! Good luck to you man and props for attacking the problem head on and having the courage to hold yourself accountable. I recommend vigorous walking until you think you can handle a light jog. And remember not to burn out too early. Start slow, learn your limits, then increase your workout accordingly.

Good luck, Sheth! I'm totally on board.
Maybe we can be virtual gym/diet buddies to help keep each other in check! :D If you post what you plan to do as a workout and diet, I'll try my best to follow along!
Weight: 240 (I fluctuate between 230 and 240, depending on time of day, and what I've eaten that day but I figure I'll go for my heaviest) Chest: 30 inch (I'm estimating because I don't have a tape measure and I'm using a ruler...) Belly: 40 inch (again, estimating with a ruler so I might be off a little bit!)
Good luck! (I'm planning on trying to start maybe p90x - I hear a lot of good things about that from my friends who have done it and I like that it is in a nice digestible 30-day regimens).

gogo Sheth! But remember that if you lose weight fast, you might get it back. I would recomend you to go slow and steady. <3 <3 <3

Yeah, I'll take part in this.
A month ago I tore the ligmanets in my right ankle quite badly (and not for the first time) and it is only now that I'm able to start exercise again. I also realised a few days ago that I've but on a lot of weight in that month.
Weight : 242 lbs Waist: 38"
Also, I have HUGE thighs. So my main goal is to make them look in proportion to my body.
|
Awesome! I hope you are successful ! Losing weight is not easy for most. I'm sure you can do it if you try hard!
see you for Mafia again sometime in the near future I'm sure...:D

I'm with ya sheth, I have also been putting this crap up for to long. Starting at about 290 pounds atm and I'm sure I could drop alot and fast if I just got around to it. Let the rocky music play loud and proud!

gl Sheth.
Im the reverse - about 6' 1'' tall and relatively skinny ~ 150 lbs.
I started working out two months ago in hopes of gaining muscle and mass - mostly for myself, but a bit because of a new girlfriend. Its been going well so far - I am really into it! After struggling to get myself to work out for the first 4-5 times I have noticed that I now want/need to work out almost everyday.
I am also focusing on eater properly - more balanced diet, etc
I have gained a few lbs already and I am going to force all of the KiwiClones and KawaiiRice to start lifting weights soon.
Anyways, I hope you can get past the first hurdle because afterwards it seems more like a pleasureful activity rather than a chore!
