    Just checking in with my weight. I'm currently at 206.4lbs, and a rough body fat percentage of 24.8%. I figure every week, I come to report how my journey is going. Majority of the weight was more than likely water. Trying to keep the protein high and the workouts intense. Looks like with my current program, I need to invest more in chest, back, and definitely core workouts. I plan to do some core routine in the morning, since I'm kind of limited for time.
    Thank you all for reading this.

    I am digging the plan my friend. Let’s keep plowing and thanks for your insight

    I've been doing some explorations on this site and found that this "Group" function might work better for us. Maybe another group has already been started that I was late for, lol, if so that's cool too.

    I don't have any proper before pictures in gym wear or anything, but I have this one I took of my outfit to show my sister last week! I started exercising just over a week ago and started logging food consistently the past few days. Started at 171lbs and I'm 38 years old. Definitely up for a challenge!

    How is your plan going. Let me know if I can help.

    So I mentioned yesterday on my update about the scale issue. This morning I was down .2 lbs. I’ll take it.
    So my current macros are 300 protein/ 150 carbs/ 55 fat
    This week I’m doing 30-35 min LISS cardio 5X and a minimum of 8000 steps per day
    My training split is a PPL (push/pull/legs) and I lift 4-5 times per week.
    I’ll elaborate more on my training in upcoming post.
    I founded Team JM Fitness in 2013 and have coached both competitive and non competitive athletes. If you are diligently trying to improve your healthy and performance you are an athlete whether you consider yourself one or not.
    If you get stuck and need some suggestions for overcoming plateaus just send me a friend request and message me. I’ll be happy to try to help.
    Have a great day everyone and let’s take our goals serious today!!

    Hey all, a little late to the party here but joining anyway! I have 40 lbs to lose. I'm currently at my heaviest weight, 178. Started MFP again, this week and incorporating more movement into my workday. I purchased a walking pad for under my desk and I've been enjoying it!

    So far I'm doing pretty good on my diet and workout program. I had one cheat meal, due to work offering breakfast, but nothing crazy to throw me off track.
    I'm now down at 202.2lbs and at 24% body fat. Still need to somehow add in more ab workouts and realizing I need to at least add one more workout to my upper/lower Body program training.
    Figured I'd check in. Thank you all for reading this.
