Thread: My diet/training Journal

Welcome to IM

Any particular plans for your diet or your miscellaneous workouts? What kind of runs?

I plan on eating 5-7 times a day once I start to train seriously. I'd like to drop 20lbs and get into semi-okay shape untill than though. (I weigh 245lbs) So until I weigh in at 225lbs I will eat 3-5 times a day. I must go shopping as the foods in my house arent that good fora diet. Anyway, here's today:

Protein Shake-(One scoop protein, One cup Milk 1pct I need skim next shop trip)
Cals-230
Fat Cals-35
Protein-31grms
Carbs-16grms

Pasta with half slice meatloaf and half slice eggplant parm, cup apple juice
(I know this is horrible but I live with my mom and I am out of work fornow so I have to make do. Meatload was veal, pork, beef mix and eggplant parm had low fat cheese)
Cals Approx-1050?
Fat cals-200?
Protein-35grms?
Carbs-120grms?
-I tend to always round to the high end when looking at cals for a meal I'm undecided on. Ihad less than a quarterpound of pasta. I DO NOT PLAN ON APPROXIMATING NUTRITION INFO ANYMORE!

Hey Marat, thanksfor takinga look. I don't have any serious set plans for my diet, workouts or runs yet. (LoL, Iknowhow that can sound) The general idea for mydiet as of right now is to try and eat very health consciously. I don't plan on eating more than 1500cals untill I start working out seriously(June?). My runs the general idea will be 10min jogs which can hopefully be raised to 20min by the time I get to 225(20lb loss). I plan on running 4-7 days a week. My workouts will be pushups, pullups, and situps. I hope to be able to do 50 pushups and 15 pullups by the time I weigh 225. From that point(about4-6weeks I'd say) I want to start doing yoga and join a gym although myworkouts still wont be put at a major emphasis.

I think after the 20lb loss I want to do a 5 day detox. After which about 2 months or so I will be following a higher protein diet (still 1500 cal max) This will be followed by another 5day detox before I start putting my workouts ata greateremphasis and up my cals to 2000. God willing by next October I will be in great shape and between 175 to 185 lbs and be able to up my cals again to 2500-2750 after a 3rd detox following Thanksgiving. These cals will still be clean and I'll decrease my cardio at this time.(Probably for Dec-Feb)

-I kinda got ahead of myself but this is a very general outline of my plan. I want to weigh around 185lbs thistimenext year and be very healthy flexible and strong. I am unsure of my what my workouts willconsist of exactly but I am certain they will not involve going low rep and heavy even when my lifting becomes majorly important. I want to do workouts emphasizing flexibilityand explosiveness. (These workouts will come after 2nd detox-3-4months about) When I increase my cals next December my workouts will not change from this general idea. I know these goals are lofty but God willing everything works out.

Looks like you're getting the ball rolling!
