MY DIET/LIFESTYLE CHANGE
In October of 2002 I took a really hard look in the mirror and was ashamed of what I saw.  I had not been paying much attention to myself in the last year or so and had passed off the odd gaining weight comment.  One of my friends finally said something to me that made me realize that I was not looking good, I won't name any names but as hard as it was to here Black Jack say that to me I really do owe it to him for getting me off my Fat Ass and on the road to some semblance of health.  Here are some pics and a complete diet diary, covering my 13 wk trek back to fitness.

MY DIET DIARY
My name is Craig Stairs and for the next 12 weeks starting today October 28th 2002, I am attempting through proper diet, exercise and body building to lose 30 pounds and lay the foundation for a moderate lifestyle change.  My starting weight is 212 lbs, and at my height of only 5'10" I am over-weight.

As a kid I was always active, played lots of sports including hockey, baseball, soccer, volleyball, badminton, water skiing and golf.  However as I get older, I am finding myself  slowing down considerably.  I haven't played hockey or any other physical sports in over 8 years and my appearance shows it.  My love of food coupled with my inactivity have played a cruel trick on my body, it is growing.  Blessed with a very round face, even at a reasonable weight I look a little heavy.  However I am hoping with a little exercise, body building and a decent diet I can make a moderate change in my appearance and overall health.

I have lifted weights in the past, between 1994 and 1999 I trained with my dad who has actually competed and won at the masters level.  I could always put on size but lacked the discipline to 'lean out' through proper cardio and diet  On the brighter side of things, I have been blessed with great genetics and when it comes to body building I truly do enjoy the results I get from it with respect to size and strength.

So, I figure with a resurrection  of my weight lifting career and a divergence into the game of squash to provide some much needed cardio and a sensible diet I should be able to get myself back in shape and achieve the following goals.. Although, like I tell Melissa, I'm in shape now, if you consider round a shape

16 week discipline goals

  • Lose 30 lbs
  • Improve my cardiovascular
  • Shrink my waist to 32"  
  • Shrink my neck to 15.5"  
  • Maintain a weight of 175 lbs

One of my biggest hurdles however will be that there is little in life that I enjoy more than eating.  To me, going out for a nice sit down dinner with Melissa and having steak, potato's, onions, mushrooms, red wine and appetizers  is the ultimate reward.

I am not, thankfully, a junk food junkie.  Aside from their convenience, I don't see much good in them and for the most part don't crave chips, pop, or chocolate bars, so eliminating these should be relatively easy.  I have come up with three main rules that I will attempt to follow, they are:

  • No Food after 8pm, it should probably be earlier, however with working until 4, gym until 5:30 and squash on mon, wed and Friday's it may be 7pm before I sit down to dinner.
  • Drinking loads of water; aside from skim milk in protein shakes in the later part of the 16 weeks, I will limit my liquid intake to water and tea. 
  • Ruling out all junk food by eating nothing that comes in a paper bag or can be ordered at a drive through window (McDonalds, BK, Wendy's, Harvey's etc).  This should help me to reach one of my goals of  limiting my calorie intake to between 1750 and 2000 daily.  I am not a big fan or believer in protein rich-carb limiting diets, although they are proven to work, it would seem irresponsible to assume that you are going to live by their eating restrictions for the next 50 years and consume only 20 carbs per 24 hour period.  At the end of the day the bulk of weight loss is determined simply by calories digested vs calories burned.  
    My diet instead will include a variety of foods, chicken, lean beef, pork, salads, some breads and pasta, whole eggs, tuna and white fish.  I will be aware of my carb intake, however with exercise, squash and body building I will require loads of energy, and consequently an adequate amount of carbs. So I will not be living or dying by my carb intake.  More importantly I will watch my overall calorie intake.

One of my biggest complaints about proper eating in the past has been rounding out my meals.  I can eat chicken and lean beef until the cows come home, but it is tough to find something to go with it that isn't loaded with a ton of carbs.  So for the most part it will be rice, baked beans and small portions of pasta.  I will treat myself to one cheat day a week, likely Saturday; on this day I will allow myself a calorie intake of up to 3000.  (likely a very hearty breakfast, or dinner out with Melissa)

Each Monday I will include an updated Photo of myself taken at the same time of the day and same place in the house so that you can follow my progress, as well I will supply a grid of my daily food intake, exercise for each day, and my weight for that day taken in the morning and a short description of how I am feeling and any changes that have taken place in my routine.

I am about to die, just spent 45 minutes on the squash court and seem to be missing at least one lung, my head is spinning and all I want to do is drink a gallon of water and lie down, I'm not sure who invented this game but they should have made the court smaller and the ball bigger.  My chest workout was good, nice to be back in the gym too, not to hungry today.

Totally screwed up day, had to travel to the states, missed both squash and my arm work out, still stuck to my diet but am really disappointed that I missed my exercise.  Promise to do it tomorrow.  Not that hungry I think my body is finally getting used to what I am giving it.

Tired today, but not overly hungry, had a good cheat breakfast this morning, boy did it taste good to have fried eggs, toast and homefries all in one meal, ooohh the carbs. Played a good squash match with Morty, followed by a quick arm work out.  Told you I'd get them in.  Didn't get to 3000 calories, just wasn't that hungry.  I have dinner at moms Sunday so I may use some up there.  Went to the movie tonight and passed the popcorn test, tea instead.

Lost two pounds somewhere in the last 24 hrs.  Dad said I would probably lose 5 or 6 pounds in my first week then around 2.5 a week after that.  It feels good to loose them, but now I will be expecting this every week.  I realize though that with my weight training the muscle that I am building will outweigh the fat that I am losing, so my weight loss will become harder as the weeks go on.

Had a full weekend of carbs, umm good, but going to try and cut back this week some, no bread, and only baked beans instead of rice and pasta.  Going to get some salmon, and white fish tonight at M&M's.  Squash is coming along well, and my energy level is pretty good.  No weight loss in the last day, but I suspect it will be coming slower now.  Really pleased with week 1 results, I can't say that I am hungry but I do have cravings

Didn't eat a lot yesterday and am feeling the effects today.  Just was really busy and only had a 6 inch sub for supper.  Still had lots of protein, but my carbs were down.  Beat Morty at squash last night for the first time.  Down one more pound too. Took some new pictures for comparisons last night, not much of a change, a little in my face.  Breaded chicken seams to fill the carb void nicely, salmon steaks were good too.

Same weight today, had a full day of eating yesterday, carbs are down some more.  I am going to try and keep them below 100, my fat around 60 and protein up around 200.  This will mean more chicken, salmon and steak but still give me a daily calorie intake of 100x4=400 plus 200x4=800 and 60x9=540 for a total of 1740.  Squash was good and had good first leg workout.  Eating was great, really like that breaded chicken.

Lost one more pound in the last 24 hours, down to 202.  Played squash last night got whooped, was really hungry hadn't eaten much all day.  Had a great supper, fajitas, a little high in carbs and fat but very tasty.  Cheat day today, hello eggs, steak and home fries.  Funny, I'm finding it really hard to cheat, aside from a little tartar sauce and some bread still ate pretty well, and feel full.

Can't understand how over a three day period I can eat less than 1000 calories on average per day and not lose weight.  I am still stuck at 199 for my 4th day.  How is it that your body is suppose to work again?  Cheat day today and I don't even feel like cheating I'm so disappointed in my lack of weight loss.  Squash with morty some time today and Fajitas tonight, at least I have that to look forward too.  Had a lot to eat today, 2500 cals, but it was cheat day and it was gooooood.  Morty kicked my butt at squash, big time.

Still at 199, for day number 5 now.  I am not sure why aside from my carb intake being a little high.  I am going to try and keep it around 100 again for a few days and see what happens.  Hopefully it is an indication that I am building muscle at a rate equal to my fat loss.  If so my pictures tomorrow should show a difference.

The ultimate slap in the face, I gained a pound.  5 days at 199 and I was complaining about not moving, well I moved.  Back to the drawing board.  I will take some solace in the fact that my pics look a little better.  Glad that I have been taking them or I would be very depressed with my lack of weight loss.   No squash tonight, but did go to the gym and tanning. All and all at the end of the day I am still ahead of schedule, although barely.

Back to 199 lbs, calorie intake has dropped some now that I am watching my carbs a little.  Stands to reason though if you eliminate most of the carbs and foods are made up of fat (x9), carbs (x4) and protein (x4), you are eliminating about 25% of your calorie intake.  A lot of high protein foods are generally low in carbs and most are fairly low in fats, aside from dairy and nuts.  At the end of the day whether it is fat or carbs you are watching the end results will be determined simply by CALORIE intake.  It just happens that low fat, high protein foods are generally very low in calories in comparison to other foods.

Good day today, finally won a set of squash, beat morty 5-2.  Either I looked ok at 211 lbs or people don't realize the change in my weight.  Honestly no one has said anything and to me the change is drastic if you look at the before and after pics.  Maybe it is because I have been busting my ass for 5 weeks that I see such a change.  The squash part has been fun though, I'm glad I started that.  The rest of it is a lot of work.  Hope to drop another pound or two in the next couple of days.  would like to be 189 by Christmas.

Ate like a pig yesterday, and lost another pound, go figure, down to 195.  One major change I have noticed over the last 5 weeks is that my energy level has slowly increased.  At 211 lbs, I was very lethargic and tired a lot, had little energy to do any extras.  I had become quite lazy.  Thankfully I think as a result of my dieting and exercising this is changing.  Had a good game of squash with morty tonight again, 4-3, we have good matches.  I think I hate losing just a wee bit more than him, because we are almost identical in skill.

 Can't deny it any longer, I'm back up to 194, same diet, same exercise but up two pounds and probably going to get worse the way I ate last night.  Good squash match with morty last night.  Suppose to play tonight as well.

Week 9
Can best be described as an almost complete breakdown, although the week started off fairly well, by the end of it I was eating everything in sight, the old adage, well its Christmas came into play on more than one occasion.  I consider it a minor miracle that as I start week 10 I am only up  a pound to 191.  back to the old grind today, thankfully, I am sick of eating like this.  I decided that keeping a diet record over this period would be almost impossible so week 10 begins anew.
