Welcome! Your "diet" (eating lifestyle, really) is your #1 goal, my friend. All the exercises in the world are useless without having your diet in check. 1200 calories a day is a dangerous crash diet to be honest...too low! You won't be able to maintain that for long and it's neither healthy or a productive way to build…

Why not try some interval training (HIIT) and burn more throughout the course of the day while spending less time actually running? ;)

Added ya, buddy! Anyone else? :)

You cannot target fat loss from any certain area - unfortunately, belly fat is usually the first to come and last to go for many people. By losing overall body fat %, your belly fat will decrease. Sorry, but I'm just being honest.

If anyone drinks too much water, it's me...but it's not really about how much water you drink over the course of a day as long as it's spread out. You can get water intoxication (so I've read) if you drink too much water at one time, but I've never heard of it actually happening to anyone. That being said, 102oz of water a…

All I drink is water all day long...and beer (light beer) on the weekends. I only reward myself with a "junk meal" on Sundays if I was faithful to my diet all week long...I hate the word "diet" as I prefer lifestyle, really. I love to eat healthy food! Steamer veggie bags are a godsend. = )

I'll help motivate you! Let me know when you need a swift kick in the booty! ;) Welcome! ~Mike

Hello! = ) What does an average day of eating look like for you and what is your current workout regimen?

It sounds like you're doing distance running (2 miles, 3 miles, etc)? Am I correct? You need to mix it up with some HIIT! http://www.bodybuilding.com/fun/ask-the-ripped-dude-hiit.html (Am I allowed to link to other sites here? Please let me know if not and I'll remove it.)

Welcome! Ouch! Gotta cut out that Redbull immediately as that stuff is pure garbage for your body. I guess I'll say the same thing to you that others are saying to me...doesn't look like you need to change a thing based on your pic. Anyway, I'll motivate anyone, so good to have ya onboard! ~Mike

LOVE the motivation! I just stocked up on steamer bag veggies (raw - no added sauces/flavoring) for the next few weeks.

Ft. Walton Beach here! = ) ~Mike

Welcome! I just joined as well...feel free to add me! = ) ~Mike

Thanks for the compliment, Terra...I wasn't always in this shape. I had an average athletic body, but not this toned. I had to work for it like most of us do. I try to share my energy with others - it's contagious!

Thanks. You're right...I don't really need to lose weight, but I like to stay motivated and use my energy to motivate others as well. = )

Feel free to add me as well...I'm not in my 20s, but I look and feel like it! Full of energy! :)
