Still fat

236.5, 39.5, 19%

Wide Load

233 pounds
39.5 waist.

That's about 20% bodyfat. hmph.

Fatness

233.5 pounds
40 inch waist.

Gotta eat less and move more.

Slightly less fat

As of this morning:

Weight 232, Waist 38.5

That's 18% on our handy dandy fat calculator.

I've cut way back on alcohol consumption, and I'm trying to stick to the basics - 250g protein, veggies with every meal, cut back on starchy carbs. Seems to be working ok, even with some days that consisted primarily of McDonalds food.

Welcome to March

Weight this morning: 233.5 pounds
Waist: 39 inches

Bodyfat (by waist/weight ratio): 19%

Goals for March are a little nebulous, as I'm not sure exactly where I am. I do know I need to get the squat/bench/dead up - I'm thinking of moving to 1RM goals, which would be in the 355/275/405 range. There is a certain BF goal: 17%.

I posted a number of the things I'm doing this month to get on track.

Bad week for sticking to the plan

And it's going to get worse. I have a feeling I'll miss a number of my February goals. I'm on the road too much for the next two weeks to get a handle on things.

Yes, that's an excuse.

This week was fine for training, not so good for eating. Still, I made progress, and I'll take it.

Weight: 233
Waist: 38.5
BF: 18%

Still Fat

234.5 pounds, 39 inch waist.

That works out to about 19%. Got some work to do this month. The good news is the routine that couldn't possibly work has put 7.5 pounds on me with a reduction of .25 inches on my waist.

End of second week

Making good progress toward the squat goal. Bench is coming along as fast as should be expected.

Weight 231.5
Waist 38.5
BF% (weight/waist): 18%

After the first full week

Weight 229
Waist 38.75

Need to make more progress here. Haven't really been doing what I need to do on the diet front.

Already hit my deadlift goal for January
Things are on track to hit my squat goal
I may need to step it up to hit the bench goal, it might have been a stretch.

Work is trying to get in the way, but so far, I've been able to train on the right days. Next week I will not be able to train on my normal Friday - and work will suffer a bit so I get to the gym Thursdya instead. But priorities are what they are. I can get the same mediocre review I'm getting this year after busting my ass by not busting my ass. I can't total 1400 without busting some ass.

So right now, that's the priority. Sorry, big employer.

First measurments of 2008

229 pounds

Progress only due to diet changes (mostly just not eating enough)

Training starts today. Should have started a week ago, but I let things get in the way.

Gettin skinny

Well, not really.

224.5 pounds, 38 inches at the navel.

Workouts resume today.

I'm getting bigger and leaner

Well, this week, anyway:

Weight this morning: 224.5, up 2.5 pounds
Waist measurement @ navel: 38.75 inches, down .25 inches

Diet hasn't been a concern, so I still have some work to do.
