3/7/10

I have begun P90X as of March 1, 2010. My starting weight was 245 lbs. It has been a week and I am at 242.2 lbs. I am also doing Weight Watchers were I am allowed 37 pts per day, 35 extra pts and I can gain 6 - 12 pts per day for P90X exercise. I am going to try my best to live on the 37 points a day, but my recovery drink takes 11 points so I might have to dip into my activity points to cover it. I feel the recovery drink is important - Cell Mass 0/Creatine 10 grams 6/ Protein 40 grams 5. My goal is to loose 20% of my weight and be 197 lbs by May 31, 2010.

My typical Diet is:

Work out 6 am - 7 am P90X

7 am

Cell Mass 0

Creatine 6

Protein 5

7 am - 8 am

1/2 Cup Oatmeal 2

8 oz Egg Whites 4

3 cups broccoli 0

10 pm

1/2 Cup Oatmeal 2

Snacks 4

Total 37 pts

My biggest hurdle is loosing my belly fat. When I look at weight charts for men my height over age 40 I should be 214 lbs according to the US Army's chart. I want to be 197 with a flat stomach but I would be happy to be 214 lbs with a smaller stomach.

Along with my P90X I plan to walk at least a mile a day if I can get the time as the snow melts and the weather warms.
