Hi people,

Ya i'm gaining more weight nowadays and everytime i meet up with my old friends they will say that i gained weight. Ya it's right as i do not exercise and eat lots of junk food

Since i'm on holiday now so i started to have thoughts of losing some weight to be at least normal and better looking

So i started with Threadmill in gym on 8th May 2007, well i guess i'll just lose some weight first before i start on body building as i know nothing bout it

8th May 2007
Gender : Male
Age : 21 Years Old
Height : 173 CM
Weight : 88 KG
Aim : Lose bout 3-5kg/month, hope to weight around 65-70kg(ya, dream )

The weight was in the gym before i started exercise so i will check on my weight once a month to see if i do lose some weight or not.

Basically i toto the gym daily for some jogging session using threadmill, can't really run for long but i keep walking for a speed of 6km/h and do some short jog like 300-500m in btw at 8km/h. So normally i'll do that for 40-50 minutes and do btw 4.5 to 5km/day.

What else can i do to help to lose some weight?Any other exercise?

And what food should i take?Say if i were to eat bread, kaya and peanut butter are those thing i should avoid right?

I'm not a milk person so anything that has milk, cheese is totally out.

Hi, thanks for the reply.

Well i go to Sunway Club gym cos my dad has the membership so it's free for me to go rather than spending anymore money on other fitness center.

Alright eggs, roughly how many i should take a day?Boiled egg?

I read about mark rippetoe 3x5 on the pinned thread

Any pic for me to see what's squat, bench press, deadlift and etc?As i said i don't know anything about bodybuilding

Added on May 14, 2007, 8:48 pmI have a question bout the stuff that i eat.

Now i'm having a short holiday so i'll wake up 10-11am then make myself toasted bread then i'll cook a fried egg(with minimum oil) and a piece of smoked chicken ham(cook with no oil) then some vege&tomato.

That will be my brunch then i'll head off to gym and back home.

Dinner will be usual stuff mom's cooking but i tried to eat less and if i'm hungry at night i'll take some fruits.

My question will be on my brunch, is it ok or is there any other better way to cook non-fat brunch?

Ya i have being eating boiled egg this few days, no half boil for me i just hate it!yucks!

I'm taking those normal hi-5 bread, what other do you recommend?

Ya only brunch and dinner, i'm fat cos of the junk food not because i eat alot for meals

Well i do take fruits and vege if i feel hungry in btw meals but mostly it's just 2 meals.

I just visited calorieking.com and using their calculator it says

The approximate daily calorie count for you to maintain your current weight is 2371 calories.

so 2371 - 1000 = 1371

I need to consume around 1371 calories per day?

So say if i were to saperate to 5 meals a day thats like 260+ calories per meal?

Is this the way to calculate it?

If it is then can you share with me like what usually they eat which contains 260+ calories per meal?

Btw thanks alot for the infos
