***BENNER410's ROAD TO 160***

[klax410]

My stats are as follows...

Age: 16
Height: 5' 10"
Weight: 196 lbs

I am fat and I want to lose 36 lbs this summer, averaging roughly 3 lbs a week. I know this is possible and I am starting this log to keep me motivated. The journeys starts NOW!

I plan on eating roughly 1800 calories a day, low in fats, sugars, and high in protein. I also will try to drink around a gallon of water a day.

I am going to jog 2 miles every morning and keep it under 20 minutes.

I am going to continue to use creatine in order to retain my muscle.

I will update every Wednesday.

Thanks for the support!

good luck with your goals dude. One thing to keep in mind, cardio alone will make you lose weight, but cardio and weight training will make you lose weight while keeping lean muscle. This is one thing that I always had trouble with. Lose weight, yet still look chubby. I'm doing it the right way now. While the pounds were not coming off right away, like when I was doing just cardio, now I look fairly sized in the arms and upperbody, while still losing weight. Once again good luck, and check out my thread!
