Have you tried applying for food stamps?

Mainly...eat right! Can still do upper body workouts, but don't go too crazy on the weight. You usually want to work both your upper and lower body equally (full body workouts) so you don't grow all out of proportion...but overall just worry about your diet at the moment.

Any feedback on the above workout and/or suggestions on workouts?

Thanks!!

Diet is 70% of any weight loss goal, so first thing is to get that in line (check nutrition forums) Then you have cardio, HIIT (High Intensity Interval Cardio) 2x/week and running for 30min one day. If you do these 2 above you will already start to lose weight and at a good pace. To help even more a...

Great to know! Anyone have any full body workout routines that I could use on split days 3x a week? Maybe 2 so I can change it up every week. Thanks again! EDIT: Here is one I found from http://www.answerfitness.com/150/full-body-workout-plan-workout-routines/" onclick="window.open(this.hr...

Can anyone suggest any other meal options...preferably dinner options.

Things that are quick makes. Thx much!

I am not a nutritionist or anything but will just tell you what has been working for me in the mass gaining dept so far. I do isolated muscle workouts. I hear a lot on this page about full body but what I have found works for me and maybe you is what I am doing. I do a 3 day split, chest and tri, ba...

Thx so much for the great ideas and information, will update in a few weeks time!

I can step up the avocado and put a lot more in everything, I love avocado, or have 2 snacks a day of almonds. Sugary carbs sound bad...is that like what is in alcohol? I have a lot of bread in there too, well, 1 bun, 2 slices, and pasta each day...is that too much carbs or ok as long as im eating p...

I'll add up all the calories and grams of fat/carb/protein and re-post that later Unfortunately I haven't been down that far past Olympia in some time :( I grew up further North tha...
