Your body will just hold onto the excess weight. And you didn't look like a tube of lard by the way but I do understand the desire of you wanting to shed those holiday pounds. Bonne chance.

Long time no comment. Congrats on the 23. I'll update my progress.<BR/><BR/>Cocoa - Thanks, man. You're fantastic, btw. And I don;t just say that to anyone.<BR/><BR/>Darius - How could we not?<BR/><BR/>Chet - You know...if no one else appreciates your wisdom and what you bring to our blogs, I do. Thank you.<BR/><BR/>Kenny - Awww....thanks, boo. You're too sweet. I'll be sure to update.<BR/><BR/>Kensilo - So far, so good with the weather. I have ColdGear by Under Armour. That stuff works wonders. I'm usually the one asking if anyone else is cold at the office, but it's all good with that stuff on. <BR/><BR/>My regimen is simple: <BR/><BR/>Morning:<BR/>- Big bowl of oatmeal (sometimes I add some bran for fiber if I'm in that mood)<BR/><BR/>- A cup of fruit (likely mandarin oranges) <BR/><BR/>Mid-morning snack: <BR/><BR/>- A big cup of Cheerios<BR/><BR/>Lunch: <BR/><BR/>- Tuna sandwhich on wheat (just canned tuna and a little fat free salad dressing...maybe some mustard all on toasted wheat bread).<BR/><BR/>- A big bowl of vegetables (whatever I feel like at the moment...maybe some corn or peas or mixed vegetables)<BR/><BR/>Mid-afternoon snack:<BR/>- More fruit<BR/><BR/>Dinner (just after the gym/bike ride)<BR/><BR/>- something sensible. Whatever I want, really.<BR/><BR/>The key to this is consistency and order. I know I don't have the metabolism to just eat whatever I want and let that be that. I have to train my body to take foods at certain times so I can speed up my metabolism. <BR/><BR/>If I do all of this, I'll be fine.<BR/><BR/>Thanks for the well wishes, bitches!Mr. Joneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02231406990703923642noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7397080658133607010.post-86569204494907659982008-01-23T08:15:00.000-05:002008-01-23T08:15:00.000-05:00Let me know how the bike to work thing turns out e...Let me know how the bike to work thing turns out esp. in this weather.

If you seriously want to shed a few pounds (you look good now) you have got to be a dedicated person to the work out and yes that may mean biking it at least once a week (Casual Fridays) I did it about two years ago and my job is fifteen miles from my house. Brotha Man was one tired and wet fool by the time I got to work and home (showers were available at work and you will certainly need it). The weight came off the toning will be the hard part...sqats and push ups.

Royce looks nothing like you and that's not a good or bad thing. We all have goals and as the grandpa of the group you can imagine I have weight issues along with the horrifying, "Time marches on and it has been marching up and down my face." All said, I think we're harder on ourselves than we should be. We are in much better shape and much more together than our str8 counterparts. Don't give up. My goal is to drop 13 lbs by summer and I'm getting comments from folks who say I look better thicker...it's not about them...and I know it's not about us...but do you and know we think you look great now and a rooting for you to look the way YOU want to look.
