3 weeks ago yesterday, went to see ol' "doc" lol and we both were shell-shocked @ how much weight I'd gained over the last 2 yrs w/out exercising @ all. 2 yrs ago, I was threatened by him and another orth-doctor that if I over-exerted any one of the 2 knees, I'd probably need the same type surgery Mak just endured (patellar tear & repair on both which are 1yr deals apiece ). After the visit, he told me to return to the schedule I used to have as it kept my weight in check and so w/ that, I lost 11 lbs off the bat recently.
This is the regiment:
1. Lift weights (reps, not to build mass) 3-4 times weekly @ 1-1.5 hrs
2. Immediately play basketball after lifting; 1-1.5 hr only 3-4 times weekly
3. No breads, pastas, high-carbs, etc
4. Increased raw fruit/raw vegetable intake
5. I'd sworn off red meats so no change there
6. Stayed away from fried foods 101% excepting catfish. :emlaugh:
7. I'm not a sweets person so I haven't done anything outside of sweet potatoe pie lately lol
8. On my days of non-lifting, I've been doing quite a bit of "outside" strenuous physical labor (clearing lots, working around ranch/farms, on others homes, etc)
My goal is to lose 30lbs in a span of 3 mos before I return to see that dude.
Good luck to everyone as they find their formula for success regarding weight loss.
