Reply With QuoteSporty,
Good luck !
I'm no expert but just as you don't want to cut your cals too much , so you have room to play later when fatloss stops, you might want to cut a couple of cardio days and put them back in if/when needed for the same reason. Just my .02

Sporty's pursuit of a bikini worthy bod...
First off, thank you for taking the time out of your busy schedule to read my online journal. This is my first serious 'cutting' experience, I've spent the greater part of my 21 years bulking so now it's time to show off the muscles that I have worked so hard for. Monday is my first OFFICIAL day of cutting, not that I plan on eating poorly this weekend by any means, I am just going out of town and will have to do some grocery shopping come Sunday so that I am prepared and dead serious about my food consumption. I refuse to call this a diet, because that's an ugly world, so I am just looking at this as a lifestyle change.
My daily food consumption will be broken down as follows(40/40/20):
200 P
200 C
45 F
Roughly 2000 calories... I think it sounds a bit high for cutting, but my cardio levels are going to be pretty intense and I don't want to start myself off too low and then not have much room to play with as my weight loss slows down.
My daily water consumption will be roughly 5 L...possibly more, I sweat like a whore in church when I do cardio, particularly the stairmaster...so I always make sure to refill after cardio.
I printed off Jodi's grocery list and have found it MOST helpful.
My training will be as follows:
Monday - Arms/Core and Cardio
Tuesday - Legs and Cardio
Wednesday - Core and Cardio
Thursday - Shoulders/Delts/Back and Cardio
Friday - Chest/Calves/Forearms/Core and Cardio
Saturday/Sunday - Cardio
I should note the from now until October I will be playing traveling tournament softball every weekend, hence the reason my weightlifing is just Monday-Friday. My primary concern right now is not with gaining large amounts of muscle, I wish to lose weight and then a few months from now a clean bulk might be called for, but I will cross that bridge when I get there.
I'll try to post some pics soon... Thanks again for reading!!!!!!!good girls go to heaven...bad girls go everywhere

okay, thanks Gwcaton...I appreciate your input...Saturday and Sunday's cardio usually consists of playing anywhere from 5-8 softball games in a weekend...so that will usually be my exercise for those days...if that makes any difference...
