I go 3-4 times per week and mostly to the 5am class as it gives me more energy throughout the day. I am a physical therapist so I stay pretty active also throughout the day. I am pretty good about eating breakfast to start my metabolism off but often want a good southern breakfast with Bacon and eggs and biscuit and gravy. To offset the biscuit and grave I often eat a mid morning snack followed by a light lunch and a mid afternoon snack. Often times supper is my problem. My wife and I cook at home so that helps but we are so good at it I just cant get enough. Then to top it all off I often times want a snack before bed. Overall I have done well but would like to see 175 and have a pretty hot body with a 6 pack to be quite honest. I am 25 and should still be well capable of acheiving it!! I would be interested in some recipes to help me out as eating is often what limits me from loosing as I work out consistantly and love it. I suspect in my workout class I burn between 800-1000 calories per instructor. Any help would be awesome. Thanks Alot!
Strengths: Love to workout; love vegetables and fruit; enjoy outdoor yard work; I only drink water with 1-2 sodas a month; I have learned to like chicken and pork grilled or baked with the helping of some Heinz 57 lol
Weakness: Potatoes Fried! Red meat Ribeye! Biscuit and gravy.( Oh did I mention I will not give on these lol I will only eat less of it!

Hi Josh. What you are looking for is a miracle diet that does not exist. lol.
All the things you as well as most people like to eat and don't like to eat are the things that will stop you from achieving your goal. If you want a lean body and the elusive "6 pack abs" you will need to tighten up your diet. If I knew of a better way I would share it with the world and go down in history, unfortunately the only way proven to work, except for a small percentage, is exercise and "proper diet" I can come up with a bunch of recipies but the "bad choices" will offset the good ones,sorry, but that's the reality of it.
