With such a topic so broad we truly try to cover the basics from all angles in this group. Nothing too big or too small. Nutrition is as significant if not more as exercise is to reaching your goals so learn all you can.

Some days I was constantly eating every hour and a half. Programs I used were from here on FT with a little cheating on my own. Thanks for the kudos.

sstump1 Posts: 1,227 Joined: 2005/03/20	2005/04/11, 09:43 AM Great job Carivan. I'm in the same boat as you...started at 22% bf and shooting for 15%...also 165 lbs. Been going for 3-4 weeks now and am trying to schedule a BF measurement with a trainer at my gym...hopefully get it Wednesday but expect to see a good difference even though my weight hasn't gone down but a lb.

Vedakathryn Posts: 1,585 Joined: 2004/05/28	2005/04/15, 02:07 PM I also wanted to add to my previous post congratulating you that you have given me, and hopefully others, a good reason to toss out the scale! A one pound weight gain would of freaked so many newbies into giving up when it was the inches, like Charlie said, that tell the true story!
