Diet - But I don't eat Salad or any vegetables.

LogicalReflex

Insanity Asylum is the one for building muscles.
Insanity will burn off your fat and tone your body up but not to the point where you are bulking out with biceps etc

I personally just want to become lean but not too skinny as being 6 ft 5 I'd look lanky and out of place.

And what do you mean substitute vegetables and salad?

I'm still eating just not as much.

To give you a scale of how much I've changed already.

Before:

I would probably eat two chicken burgers meals and another single burger all from the takeaway etc

And probably have something in the morning too.

Now:

I have been eating weetabix in the morning with no sugar

A tuna sandwich or a meatball sub from subway in the afternoon for lunch

On the night I will mostly either have mash and chicken drummers or potato wedges/waffles with chicken or fish

Tonight though I did cheat a little and had a pack of crisps and the leftover tuna from the sandwich I was making for tomorrow.

Soon:

I will be eating weetabix in the morning

Tuna sandwich/chicken sandwich in the afternoon with a pack of crisps or not...

And on the night will most likely be mash and carrots or another vegetable with peas and fish/chicken (Fresh)

To build muscle, you need to eat a surplus of calories. Whilst weight training and eating a deficit in calories, you're going to hold onto already existing lean muscle, whilst just shedding fat. Which will result in a slower weight loss, but a more defined figure.

If your goal was to just lose weight, you could probably find something better than Insanity to help you.

Also, you said you can't afford it. If you go to PirateBay or some other torrents sites, you can get it for free.

Insanity has a ton of cardio and is based around weight loss. I'm not trying to gain muscle as I don't really need it.
I'm happy with what insanity will apparently do to me after I've worked at it.

have you ever tried to juice? I wasn't sure I would like it but it was good when I tried it. I put in some kale, spinach, apples, carrots, and a packet of sweet n low and some ice. I liked it. Didn't even taste like vegies. You just need to basicly take a multivitamin and eat the recommended calories while exercising. You can still lose weight without eating vegies but maybe you could try sneaking them in here and there. Humans are omnivores.. we need both so we can get a rounded supply of vitamins and minerals.

I've never had a juicer but I did try to make it manually once.
crushing it up myself etc

I'll have to get one soon as a lot of people have suggested juice. Thanks for the suggestion

Wrong.
To build muscle you just need calories. And if you are overweight, you have plenty of calories stored as fat or glycogen. So if you are on a diet and running a calorie deficit, YOU ARE STILL GOING TO BUILD MUSCLE IF THE RIGHT CONDITIONS ARE MET.
If you lift, a good workout is pushing yourself to where the muscle tissue is micro-traumatized. Then it repairs itself to a stronger (larger) state. You need a special soup of amino acids, growth hormone, and insulin. But your muscles will get larger. Not as large as a guy's would, with his testosterone, but largER than otherwise.

And I'm not even looking to build muscle :P
I'm looking to become lean which insanity is more based around weight loss and apparently gets you lean just from that.
I've been working hardddddd too lol

I am not trying to be rude or anything, but I do feel like this is above and beyond just being picky. Have you spoken with your doctor about your physical aversion/reaction to certain foods? I wonder if there is something a little more underlying going on. Or maybe it's just because I only really dislike one certain vegetable (baby corn), so I can't imagine disliking/not giving so many yummy foods a chance!

Yes he said that I'm allergic to most stuff as I told him how I come out in rashes when eating certain bits.
I have actually tried a lot but cant seem to keep it down etc

some things though like carrots I love

I'm trying a lot more now though as theres a few things I havent tried as of yet.

Ah yes, I did see that you have allergies, too. Sorry! I actually went through the whole thread and just skipped over the less informational posts. LOL. Either way, I do hope you're able to expand your food horizons!!

Lol and thank you.

I've tried a ton of new things and ive even started eating a ton healthier.
Being 6 ft 5 though I don't look majorly overweight... It's mainly when I take my top off and my beer gut pops out lol
I'm going to get rid of this.

on insanity day 3 now and eating a lot better.

Another thing you could try mate, is naked smoothies. They are really nice to drink and they have all sorts of fruit and vegetables in them. The Green Machine one is the best imo...it looks disgusting but trust me...they are really good! Just an idea being as you don't like many veg. With these smoothies...you can't even taste that they've got vegetables in them.

Will try it mate.
Thanks for the suggestion.
And yeah they do look disgusting :P But no pain no gain.
I'll try anything as long as I lose weight lol

I've been working hardddddd too lol

Depending on what your goals are, you'd be well advised to take on some kind of weight lifting. IMO, getting to a magical "goal weight" isn't the everything.

My goals are:

Be able to do push ups
Be able to do pull ups
Get to about 13 stone
Be pretty lean... No muscle as I don't want to be huge etc

Lifting weight won't turn you into a monster, most of the birds on here want to avoid weights for that reason. In reality it makes them less wibbly and a lot hotter.

Best end thread here as you've got enough changes to be getting on with... Taking on too many changes won't end well.
Enjoy your insanity - and remember that consistency is the key. You will see results if you are consistent, and if you're not happy with results you'll be able to tweak what you're doing much more effectively if you're consistent in your approach.

Yeah I'm hoping to keep on doing insanity and keep going with it.
Hopefully it will change me as well as the fact I'm enjoying some of the food changes I've made.

I still cant do a single push up though.
Heres to hoping insanity actually works :P

One of many webpages for people who don't like vegetables:

http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20130526065204AA1ZkUG

Google "how to eat vegetables when you hate them" .....there are pages of good info. You need vegetables to improve and maintain your health. Perhaps disguising them in other foods will help.

Dont worry about Insanity working. Worry about YOU working.

I've been working out really hard.
To the point where I am pretty much nearly puking throughout.
I actually did puke at the end of day 1 lol

Joksie

There's your answer! Curry it up!
I'm glad your love life is going well.

Joksie

Wait, you puke when you eat veggies AND when you workout?

LogicalReflex

Nope, I only puked once when working out because I pushed myself to my limits lol
