    Andre with all due respect, I don't think you fully understand. I look like total crap right now. I'm a mess. I don't know my exact body fat but I have a GUT. Beleive me.

    Here's the thing Andre (and anyone else who wants to help a guy out )...I have done NOTHING in 3 years (lift,box,cardio,sit ups, good diet, supps,etc) The only things I have done in that time is eat crap food, drink beer, and chase women. I used to be in shape. I used to box amateur competitively, lift, and run. I want to get back into the swing of things.

    My plan is to just lift for 6 weeks, no cardio. Than after 6 weeks get back into boxing and running and train for the Golden Gloves in May. Here's why I don't want to start boxing/running right away:

    1) My muscles are soft. I have no muscle to me right now. If I do cardio, my muscles will get softer than they already are even if I am lifting as well.

    2) I don't think my body could handle going from doing ABSOLOUTLY NOTHING in 3 years to doing EVERYTHING (lift,run,box,etc). Thant's why I think I should gradually get into it.

    The other supps I plan on taking are Multivitamin,glucosamine,protein shake,BCAAs,glutamine, effervescent sugarless creatine, Potassium and Vit. C caps.

    I also plan on drinking 5 liters of water a day.

    The diet I want to start consist of

    Breakfast 5:30 am
    A bowl of keto rice krispies (21 g protein 4 g carbs) with skim milk
    1 cup of green tea

    Brunch 8:30 am
    Tuna with fat free mayo

    Lunch 11:30 am
    1 chicken breast with BBQ sauce
    1 vegetable serving either peas,green beans,corn,brocolli,asparagus

    Dinner 3:30 pm

    I will also be having 1 side salad with croutons and fat free dressing

    Evening meal 6:30 pm
    1 porterhouse steak with steak sauce
    1 vegetable serving either peas,green beans,corn,brocolli,asparagus

    Post workout/bedtime meal 10 pm
    4 egg whites (no yolks)
    Protein shake with skim milk
