BIGGESTMOOSE’s BodyBlog

I’m down to 261 lbs but would probably be further along if I could find the time to run, my diet is doing good watching the late nite carbs and just trying to intake enough protein so I don’t lose muscle size. I have a 1 and 2 yr old so my time with them is a lot more important to me than the running. I’m going to hopefully get on a schedule to run early in the morning or my lunch hour. Just don’t be around if its on my lunch hr eewwww  wee what a smell. I’ll give more details later when I have time.

Yesterday 5 of us guys decided to do the biggest loser contest at work. Actually I was suprised that I got the guys to join that joined, but am glad they did. We had a total weight of 1199 lbs with me being the heaviest at 267 and the lightest was 202, Oh Mike. I am also the tallest at 6′6" and have the most muscle so I didn’t feel to bad being only 30 lbs heavier since I probably have 6" on the other guys. We are all around the 40 yr old mark except Jose he is the "pup" as we say he’s 28 and a soda drinker. The contest only last a little over a month so I am going to give it everything I can to drop some serious weight just in case the other guys give up. They haven’t said what the prize is for the winners so it’s like a bonus when they do decide.

THE PLAN

 I going to up my cardio by running more since the weather is nice now in the mornings and I will probably do my weight training by cutting my rest periods down quite a bit to get some cardio there by raising my heart rate. I am looking to drop down to 250 lbs in this time frame and believe I can do it by eating lean and staying away from late night meals and if I keep my protein intake around the same as I aways have I shouldn’t lose any of my muscle size. My ultimate size is to get to about 235 lbs and around 10% bf, I got to 238 once but I didn’t have the muscle on me I do now so I think it will be a big difference in looks ( I hope). Any how heres the start of something that ought to be fun doing and the results well worth all the hard work.

At 40 yrs old I’m having a hard time shedding the pounds, plus the fact that I like food. I work out every morning for a 1 hr and then do 15 to 20 min of cardio. And I just seem to maintain. I’m about to switch to running every other day about 2 miles and I hope that helps. I do good during the week but then the week end comes and boom I blow it. I’m don’t want to lose any size but love to get down to about 230 lbs, which I’m about 263 now. Here’s to will power.
