    Wow...that is pretty intricate! I do log my workouts, but alas, only on a measly journal and with a pen...LOL I am thinking about upping my calories though. Am I seeing right, you are on a 1300 calorie day? I am on a 1200 but am thinking to up it to 1400...Here's a quick breakdown of my workouts this past 2 weeks (not as nice as your layout though)! :wink:

    June 22: 52 min. of running
    June 25: 63 min of running Dumbbell swings & push ups 21-15-9
    June 27: 35 min. of running
    June 28: 85 min of running
    June 29: 58 min of cardio Abs/dips
    June 30: 112 min of running
    July 2: 60 min of running Sit ups & Squats 100 each
    July 3: 32 min of running
    July 4: 48 min of running Dips & Thrusters 50 each

    I LOVE EXCEL (that is the numbers nerd in me)! Are you finding your projected losses and real losses to be close?

    Csingleton,
    I bet you do feel those lifts. I am not that advanced yet. I am going into the lifting slow and easy because I am old and don't want to get hurt!

    It is pretty close Amanda. I am losing a bit more than it calculates. On average I have calculated 2.8 lbs and actually lost 3.3 a week for 15 weeks.

    Csingleton,

    I'm only lifiting 45lbs, but you can start slow by using 15 or 10lb dumb bells. Even if that feels too hard, use PVC piping or a broomstick. There's so many ways to make ANY workout doable for whatever your fitness level is. Then you just slowly work your way up from there! Good luck on your weight loss journey!

    P.S Guys suck cause they lose weight SOOOOO much faster than women! LOL

    My wife has lost the same percentage as me in the same amount of time. I just had more to lose. Me: 228-178= 21% Her: 150-120=20% She is now way into normal BMI. I have a ways to go!
    I can work with a bit more weight than you. I'M male, grew up on a farm, was a mechanic for 15+ years on subs and working on factory robots, and at one time was a good athlete (4:30 mile runner).

    Now im old, work at a desk, am a fair to poor athelete (6:52 is my best mile this year).

    I'll send it to anyone who asks.

    I'm currently following a 20-week hybrid program, and I have the schedule typed out sitting in my workout area. Once the workout is complete, I scratch through that day's workout with my big red pen. I like seeing all the red marks for some silly reason.

    I get a 60-90 minute dog walk in every day (rain or shine--the boys need their exercise, too!) and strength train for 45 minues, 3 days/week, and do cardio abs for 40/20 minutes, 3 days/week. I also do some extra stretching several times per week as well.
