    Congrats on changing your lifestyle. As you already stated "I feel like a new man", get used to that feeling. As far as weight loss if I were you, I would not get too wrapped up about the actual number on the scale. I say this because you are new to weightlifting. You are gonna gain muscle even though you are trying to lose fat. Example: You may gain 1lb muscle and loss 1.5lbs of fat in one week. THe scale says you only lost .5 lbs from all that cardio, lifting, dieting you've been doing. But what you are really doing is changing your body composition dramatically and the scale wont tell you that.

    Just stay consistent with working out and eating healthy. Stick with natural unprocessed foods. Throw in a yam or oatmeal in your diet. Watch the sugars in the Powerade/Gatorade.

    Thanks for that man, yeah i'm not to worried about what that scales are telling me. i can see the changes in my body already :P

    Yup i'm very consistent with my diet i feel guilty if i'm not and i love going to the gym makes me feel high lol that old saying Arnie said about feeling like your cumming at the gym is so true :P

    The food i'm eating is giving me so much energy, it think as of Monday i will start training twice a day, cardio on my lunch break then after work do 20 min cardio warm up then hit my weights, also this will help me getting home a bit earlier :P i want to hit my goal no matter what i'm so in the zone its not funny lol
