Just get the flu! You lose sooo much weight when sick like that! (Hapoened to me -.-) lol jk, don't get it....keep up the good work!

 
i now weight 143

ive lost 37 pounds this year

this is what i find effective

1: limit yourself to 1000 cals a day

2: for a few days eat nothing but high protein then go on a fruit binge the rest of the week

3: no more than 50g of carbs a day or else u will blow it. dont give your body anything it can store as fat

 
I'm 5'11" 135 and somehow still have fat covering my abs. I don't get it, and have tried everything to get it off. :( sucks.

 
How tall are you? 143 sounds dangerously low for a young man of decent height.

You have to build your abs up more to have them show. Even being on the 20% for my height scale i didn't have them, but then i became kind of "addicted" to working out and lifting so i have them. Just keep working at it and believe me, it feels good once you get there. But with losing fat and gaining muscle you will weigh more.

And Alex, isn't 1000 a little low? I'm on like a 4000 "diet"

Also keep up the good work man, just find a reason to be healthy and use it. For me it was to be able to out lift my brother in bench, incline, and shoulder press by the time he gets home from college. although that won't happen he's 6' 200 of muscle, but it keeps little 5'8" 142 me driving for the goal.

I guess what i'm trying to say by giving an example is that everything is better when you are living healthy, you all over feel better and you will find yourself having to force yourself to do your homework before going to the gym or doing body weight stuff/dumbbell downstairs! Keep up the good work, dude!

lol wow u take in a lot of calories

my mom and i need to start goin to the gym again

the important thing to remember is to not do more muscle work than cardio or u will just build muscle over fat

u dont want fat

fat is a waste of energy

 
I don't believe in the gym. I believe you should be able to get all the exercise you need through your daily activities. If you are gaining weight, you must either lessen intake or increase your activity. I think the gym is no good either, because it trains your body to need the exercise and when you stop your body's gonna kick your butt. I choose not to start something that I will have to continue and the cost of a gym is ridiculous, anyways.

But watching your weight go up in core lifts is so fun and satisfying....... :(

 
I wouldn't be too preoccupied with your weight. Two people can be the same height and weight and look very different. A lb of muscle is a lot smaller than a lb of fat.

definitely

I saw a pic and 5 pounds of fat is like 3 gallons of matter, whereas 5 pounds of muscle could easily occupy a bread pan
