How I Lost My Fat Ass

Back when I worked in the cubicle I never said no to a Chipotle burrito. I was always the first to the powdered donuts when one of our clients would bring them in. Week by week I was adding pounds to my ass.

My pants were getting ridiculously tight. I went from wearing a belt to leaving my pants unbuttoned (seriously :( ).

So, how did I lose my fat ass?

It was hard, but I did it.

By changing my diet and adding lots of exercise to my schedule, I was able to lose 15 pounds of fat and add 5-7 pounds of muscle and my ass went from jiggly and dimply to rock solid and firm.

The Lose My Fat Ass Diet

My diet consisted of 5-6 small meals per day. I ate eggs and oatmeal in the morning for my first meal for the most part. At mid-morning I would consume a protein shake or bar. For lunch for 8 solid weeks I ate a can of tuna and a spinach salad with low fat balsamic dressing. Every damn day I had a can of tuna! At around two I would have another protein bar or shake. For dinner I would generally eat what my wife fixed and add protein if necessary.

The idea is to add protein to your diet and keep it running through your system.

The Lose My Fat Ass Workout

I worked out for 8 solid weeks 6 days a week without missing a workout. I rose early at the time and worked out every morning. Occasionally, I would do a cardio workout on my lunch hour if I slept too long.

I felt like a robot.

On Monday, Wednesday and Friday I would do upper body and lower body workouts alternating each day. Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday I would do 20 minutes of intense cardio.

I went from a size 36 in pants to a size 31 and need a belt. The plan was 12 weeks, but when I lost my job and became cubicleless, my schedule got all screwed up.

I was most excited about being able to see my abs again. My wife gave me much motivation including telling me I was starting to look like Daniel Craig from Bond. :)

In future posts, I’ll go into more detail on how I did the workouts.
