BullTX’s BodyBlog

i just took and posted some new progress pictures.  Wow was that an event!  The more i thought about the more i wanted to put them up even if i am the only one who looks at them (trust me they are not for the weak stomached people) it is change for the better.  Now i know if you look at it compared to alot of the others out there you would not see it but i do and that’s what counts.

I have been kicking my own ass with cardio and dont see what i believe i should see knowing what i’ve done everyday.  I know i need to change up my routine but i have only been doing it for 3 weeks to a month and the weight does not want to go away.  I have been doing intervals on a eliptical machine they are 2 minutes each.  At the slow pace i keep it between 140 and 150 strides per minute at a lower incline with no resistance.  When i kick it up i go to a 10 on the slope and 5 on the resistance at around 200 -210 srides per minute.  I do this for 30 min a day 5-6 days a week.  Before this i was doing the eliptical for 4-6 miles a day and nothing.  I cant run do to bad ankles and knees with a 310 pound body coming down on them that could be bad.

I have a Bodybugg that says i am burning about 5000 - 5500 calories a day and they suggest that i take in 3200 calories a day.  As big as i am that is hard to do.  I always feel full and dont really want to eat.  I have been eating clean for the most part i am sure not as well as a lot of people on this site but better than i have ever done. 

So what i am getting at with all this background info is "If there is anyone with some good constructive ideas please give them to me".  I would appreciate it alot.  I dont really care if the pounds dont come off.  I just want the fat gone.  I love to lift and if i stay at 295-315 but it is fit muscular weight so be it.  I have always been one of the "big" guys now i want to be the strongest guy in the room.  Especially if there is other people in it.

It is great when you can see the changes your body makes but it is even better when others do.  All of my shirts are getting a little tighter… only this time not in the stomach but the sleeves and the chest.  I had not seen the trainer in 3 weeks just been doing my own thing and he noticed it to and thinks i have dropped som body fat gonna measure on Saturday and we will see.  I have given up on putting much stock into the scale.  Originally i wanted to loose 50 pounds but with what i am seeing if i stay around 310-320 but good strong muscle great i just want to loose the gut and love handles.  This is just me ranting this morning had a great work out last night, i could hardly lift my arms to drive home.
