Do they have a shipping scale @ the factory? We need to do a final weigh-in.
A dozen or so guys, stripped down to their drawers, weighing in would be an interesting sight! LOL!

I already have a number of meals planned out for my Experience trip. Ram's Head, Tsunami, Lewnes' here I come! I'm flying in Wednesday so that'll be my last weigh in. Must stay focused until then.

I really need to figure out a meal plan. I'm killing it in the gym and putting on muscle but I am stuck at 250. Diet has to be the key.

Only within the last year have I take diet seriously and it has made a huge difference for me.

If I was forced to say what part of the equation diet is I'd reply 80% if not more. I'm also happy to share with anyone interested exactly what I'm doing, what I'm eating and when if you'd think it helpful.
And...
I'm down!

Spill it Jesse, what are you doing diet-wise?

For the last month of contest here's what I'm doing...the food and cardio is more strict than I went for the first two months.
Cardio -
Daily, as soon as I get up.
Treadmill, 30 minutes, incline 8, speed 3.5.
Strength -
Tuesday upper body, Thursday lower body.
Varies week to week, but I use a bench and have adjustable dumbbells.
Diet -
I eat every three hours, first meal is after cardio, morning routine and weigh in.
First meal: 3 whole eggs, 4 egg whites.
Second meal: 4-6 ounces of chicken or fish with 2 cups of greens.
Snack: cheese stick and 1 cup of celery or cucumber.
Third meal: 4-6 ounces of chicken or fish with 2 tablespoons of avocado.
Fourth meal: 2 whole eggs, 4 EQ whites (I add greens if I'm really hungry).
I also try and drink 60 ounces of water a day and limit myself to one diet coke, I find that Mio flavored drink mix is a life saver.
These things are an extremely small price to pay for the results. Especially considering how little I did the first two months, it was embarrassing.

We have similar diets, but I don't portion control my meals. I should really start doing that.

It's proven a useful habit to build.

Started portion controlling today. I have one more week until my personal D day. I need to lose a little more belly fat by then, but I think this is going to get me where I need to be.
Woot!!
Noice!

I hope it works for you. Measuring your food is a very common trait amongst the people I know and consider to be fit.

Portion control is paying off very nicely for me
