have to lose weight to get my bday present...help!!

JJBusa · 09-21-2004, 09:29 AM

hey guys, it's my bday tomorrow, the 22nd, and for it, my parents are sending me skydiving...can't wait, so excited, heres the catch, i need to be under 230, i'm currently 240... so what's the best and fastest way to shed this off... i would like to get under 220 before i do it, but any suggestions?

my diet

usually, for breakfast, i have 4-5 hard boiled eggs, no salt, or pepper and a half cup of oatmeal, no sugar, very little 2% milk.

then i try to have a little something a couple hours later, like a small sandwich, or something like that.

i ususally get in about 4-5 meals, small of course, and as healthy as i can get.

and nothing past say 8 at night, cuz that's when i get my break at work.

finally, my workout

i just started 4 days ago, i do a half hour workout on a gazelle, if you guys know what that is, the tony little thing, works fricken awesome.

then at least 4 days a week i have been lifting, for about 4 weeks now. i'm seeing tons of definition compared to what i had, but the number's not going down, and that's what i need right now.

any advice would be sweet.... thanx guys!!!

Sounds like a decent plan...how long do you have to lose the weight? You mention your b-day is tomorrow (Happy Birthday) so i assume the sky diving will be done at a later date?
