Hi friends,
Well, it's day 8 and, as expected, the weight is going down. Cool thing is, my strength is getting back to old form, and I am going to have to get heavier weights soon!
Now, here's a challenge for you all. I just got called to go to work; the kicker is, I work on a boat! No gym, no weights, no scale, and crappy/fatty foods. So, I am going to a pure body weight workout, and if you want the diet, and exercises I am going to be using, email me at selbyconsulting@yahoo.com
Okay, I can't upload pictures. Wow! This internet on here is slow and dicey! It's okay though, I can't wait to get the pics up when I get home. If I can do this out here, then it's proof anyone can do it.

60 day workout - Day 6
Hello to everyone who is following this blog,
It's day 5 and, already, I am feeling the effects of my training. You know, it's a great feeling to feel the muscles tighten in the morning, to look in the mirror and see the results of the previous day's efforts.
Okay, so down to business. If you are wanting to start this workout, you need 3 things. First, is the equipment; which can all be purchased at your local Wal-Mart (for those of you in the states), and if you don't have a Wal-Mart, or anywhere that carries the Perfect Pushup/Pullup, then the site for purchase is : http://www.perfectpushup.com
On the site, they have a combo special that will save you money. The dumbbells, and Kettle Bell can be purchased at any fitness store.
Second, you will need the supplements. The main products I am using are from Vitamark International. I know, this sounds like a shameless plug but, they do work! Using the Limu Plus and Vita Ones, I have more energy, sleep better, and feel like I am a teenager again. I am as skeptical as the next person and will make an offer, should you choose to accept it; buy the products I am using, if you don't feel a difference in the way you feel, Vitamark carries a 100% guarantee. Just give this an honest shot though, that's all I ask. Here's the link for the supplements : https://www.vitamark.com/744205
Third, you need the determination to make a change in your life. Find a reason to do this, a "why", find your inspiration and the rest will fall into place. Set weekly goals for yourself and, see them through! It might be to drop 3 pounds in the first week, do 2 more reps by week 1, increase your cardio by 2 minutes, or any combination. Write your goals, and your inspiration, down and put them on the bathroom mirror. That way you see them first thing in the morning, and before you go to bed. Don't give up if you don't succeed in reaching your weekly goal; most people don't. It may take 2 weeks to get there.
Listen to your body too. If your muscles are screaming, "NO MORE!!!" at you, then it's time to take a day off! Overdo it and you can hurt yourself, or worse. I know, I have done it; I was a Natural Bodybuilder in Germany (stationed there with the US Army) and went 6 days a week for workouts. After the first week, I ignored my body and ripped my left pectoral tie in. That was a 10 week layoff and, I had to start over again. So pay attention to the warning signs.
In the next installment, I will begin to post a few exercises I use, step by step.
To your success,

60 day workout -Day 5
Here's a tie in for everyone out there. The beauty of this is, you can use any training material you want with this! Follow my guidelines, P90X (a great program and the equipment I have ties in nicely with it), get articles out of a fitness magazine, anything. The bottom picture is my weight/bodyfat as of 02-28-2009; the next up is from today. I gained 2 pounds but, dropped 6% in bodyfat. I am also showing the mounting for the Perfect Pullup and, the resistance bands I am using.
It's a fool proof way to get healthy, fit, sexy, and feel better about you. That's what it all boils down to; what kind of drive do you have? What are your reasons for doing this? What do you hope to get out of this? These are some of the questions I have been asked, so far.
My drive is high, and will stay high.
My reasons for doing this.....Me, and my son. I want him to have an example to follow; dedication, determination, fitness, being his best at all times and, being like his Daddy. Personally, a fit person is viewed better by everyone. A boss will look at a fit person as a health issue; you are more apt to not being sick, more durable, can handle stress better and, will be more productive. A fit person gets more response from everyone; you're seen as a sign of vitality, health, and sexy (to be blunt).
In so far, 5 days mind you, I have dropped 2 pounds and 4% Body Fat. I will post the pics of the scale to prove it. This isn't hard, takes me 45 minutes a day, is both aerobic and anaerobic, and I can do it whenever I want. I still have time for the day to day activities, still have time to run a business, play with Raymond (my son), surf the Traffic Exchanges, click PTC sites, and clean/cook. See where you can get in 5 days. Use the Vitaone's, Limu Plus, and Diet Cookies; this stuff really does work! Set goals for yourself, 5 pounds in a week is doable. Just make damn sure you consult a doctor prior to doing the workouts/supplements. I can give you the diet, the workout I use, and the supplementation...for nothing! My email is below my name. If you want the supplements, in a timely manner, go to :

My 60 day body transformation
This will be a running 60 day progress report about me, body composition, diet and exercises. With dedication, will power and, a hint of luck, I will be able to get back to 265lbs and 12% Body Fat.
This will be a weekly updated blog. I will have pictures of the supplements I will be using, workout equipment, and pictures of my before/during/after body with pictures of the scale/body fat composition. On the 18th of Feb, I did my initial weight/body fat; staggering results at 289lbs and 44% Body Fat. Should I achieve my goal, it will prove to everyone that you don't need multiple lines of supplements, a fancy gym (although it wouldn't hurt), or a personal trainer that charges by the hour. Everyone will be able to follow this; whether you are a busy executive, parent (I have a 2 year old son), living alone, or living with another. This will take 60 days, no more than that. The first picture will be of my fat self, standing in all of my inglorious stature and, with determination, I will be fit at the end of 60 days! I will start the journey on the 18th of this month.
Now just so you know, I work off-shore. So, I am gone a month and home a month. There won't be pictures, and very few updates when I am gone.
If you want the diet, and workout routine, I will be able to email them to you. If you want the supplement line that I will be, for the majority of this program, using go to the following link:
https://www.vitamark.com/join/744205
All of the workout equipment I use is at my 2 bedroom apartment. I purchased all of the items at Wal-Mart, and spent approximately $150 for all. Supplementation, of course, is a different story. We all know that whether you buy from GNC, Online site, or mailing catalog, supplements get expensive. I will be using, mainly, Vitamark supplements; although, my protein/pre-workout/post-workout will be from GNC.
I hope this will inspire people to live right. The body is a temple; if you build a strong foundation through diet, exercise, and healthy habits, it will last forever. If your foundation is weak, it will crumble and fall.
To your success,
