ok im 17 and i weigh 290 (lost 9 pounds) and Ive been dieting and working out for about weeks 2 weeks and I know i need to lose about 100 pounds.
I'm 38% body fat, 6'1, large build
I dont really have a routine for working out, which i need to .
I'm following a push up routine and then I lift weights
I have a membership to a very nice gym also
I need to develop a work out routine.
as far as diet is concerned, I'm almost exclusively drinking water now, trying to drink around 12 glasses a day (atleast
The problem I am having with diet is because of school i do not have time for breakfast, if I do its egg whites on 1 piece toast
6am wake up
shower, dress,......(two bothers who have to get ready also)
6:45 time to leave
school lunches are horrid so I end up not eating until 2:45
(I think I'm going to start bring deli sandwiches or something)
1-2 cups of water at school
atm: at 2:45 when i get home I try and eat something health, for example
egg whites on toast and maybe peanut butter on celery an hour later (2+ cups of water)
I try not to eat anything until 6:30 but I may have another celery stick or some nuts (2-4 cups of water, a glass of milk If i feel like one)
note: I will eat anything really but i would like to avoid oatmeal because i cant eat it without alot of sugar.. I love nuts, any nuts! mmm nuts lol
chicken turkey,beef, pork, white fish, any veggies, any fruits
so any suggestions for changes are welcomed

- you need a training routine so drop the push up program and opt for The Waterbury Method by Chad Waterbury (search)
- get up earlier, no excuses for not having breaky...you HAVE to have it to lose wt
- definately take lunch with you if you need to making the night before
- you should have 1cp of water every hr at the very least
- eat if you're hungry, don't wait...frequent medium sized meals eill take care of this
- nuts are good...oatmeal is good just limit the sugar is all
meal 1 as soon as you get up - fruit, oatmeal
2 - fruit, protein
3 - snadwitch with lots of meat and salad with added veg
4 - protein, veg, salad
5 - protein, veg, salad
6 - protein, veg, salad
i strongly advise a protein shake and either pasta, rice or bread after training too
