Re: The ultimate goal! - August 6th 2011, 10:39 PM

Kudos for having the persistence to follow through with what seems like a very rigorous program. Just a few comments:

You don't need to begin Nutrisystem at the same time as you begin your workouts -- it is only a supplement, and the physical exertion is what does the "heavy lifting" (no pun intended).

Also, wanting the "built" look for attention and to feel better about yourself is all fine and well...but keep in mind that there is a limit at which below it, you look very fit, athletic, attractive, etc., but above it, you look like a musclehead -- and trust me, women do not respond well. You'll be getting just as much attention, if not more, from women -- but it won't be because they think you're hot. It'll be because you seem abnormal. Most girls I've spoken to find too much muscle (including very obvious veins) to be a complete turn-off. I can't see the exact target weight, so you may already fall within the advice I gave, but just felt like I should mention it just in case.

Make sure to do your research and check up regularly with a doctor or other health specialist. Far too many people undertake programs like this, and end up hurting themselves because they were too rigorously pushing themselves, or doing something incorrectly.

Good luck, and be safe.
