Malucci is a FPOS!
So I'm a huge fat piece of ****.
I'm about 5'10, 245lbs. and it's upsetting. I weighed about 255 in December 2006, and I worked my way down to 205lbs. And now I have ballooned back up to close to that weight which is the most I've ever weighed. I have always struggled with weight issues my entire life, and my parents are both fat slobs.
I have been lifting weights (weight training/bodybuilding) since I was 15 or 16 (I'm now 27), so I have lots of exercises that I use and enjoy. One thing going against me though is, I never really do leg exercises. I don't squat, do leg extensions, calf work, nothing really except for the workout my legs get on an elliptical machine, jogging, or walking. So I think I'm going to have to put some leg work in my routine.
My biggest problem is dieting. My diet is trash. I need to cut out nearly everytyhing, and just start cooking at home, making (much) healthier choices, and really cutting down on portions. I have been eating tons of whatever greasy fat lard food I want, and that's not going to help me do anything but die in a couple years.
My goals are I guess to get down under 200 lbs. Get back a lot of definition that I had way back when. Get back to the shape I was in high school, if that's even possible, or in better shape (which is certainly less possible).
My plan is to try to hit the gym in the morning for cardio before work (and if I can't do it then, then it must be done after work) eat right. Try to not have carbs after 4pm. Weight train at least 3 times a week and do cardio at least 4-5. And really keep on myself and post in here.
Any suggestions? Questions? Any help that anyone would like to provide would be much appreciated. Time to be strong.

It's great that you're motivated to make positive changes in your life! Setting clear goals and outlining a plan is an excellent start. Incorporating leg exercises into your routine and focusing on healthier food choices are positive steps toward achieving your weight loss goals.
Here are a few suggestions to consider:
Start Slow: Don't try to change everything at once. Gradually incorporate healthier habits into your lifestyle to make them more sustainable.
Seek Support: Whether it's from friends, family, or online communities, having support can make a big difference in staying motivated and accountable.
Track Your Progress: Keep track of your workouts, diet, and weight loss progress. This can help you stay motivated and identify areas for improvement.
Consult a Professional: Consider consulting with a nutritionist or personal trainer who can provide personalized advice and guidance.
Remember, progress takes time, and it's okay to have setbacks along the way. Stay focused on your goals, and don't be too hard on yourself if you slip up. You've already taken the first step by recognizing the need for change and making a plan. Keep up the good work!
