50 years old

5' 9"

190 lbs

goal- 180-185 (range)

going to be difficult, since I developed a sweet tooth recently, I do drink 1 soda per day also, dont know why they are so good to me, I avoided them for 30 yrs. Hmph? I'll be damned if I know??

I figure I'll lose 10 off the bat then try to keep it in my comfort range. I know I'll have some weeks or days where I'll be at my high end of the range but Im hoping I can spend some serious time down around the low end of my weight range too.

Im expecting my handicap to lower also, from weight loss and more play starting tomorrow. 3 rounds per week and short game practice on the days I dont play for at least an hour or 2

Im going to try to obtain a 0 index......Key word is "try"    I think I can do it.

4/18  - 156 lbs - I started the p90x program and diet.

5/6 - 148  (total lost 8 lbs)

Basically following their fat burner diet (first 30 days) which consists of 5 proteins a day, 1 carb, 2 dairy, 1 fruit, 2 veggies, 1 protein bar, 1 snack.  I am following the 1400 calorie a day level.

The workout is 6 days a week, each day doing something different.  Chest/Back/Abs, Cardio, Legs/Back/Abs, Kempo, Arms/Shoulders/Abs, Yoga, Rest

Gets addicting after a while.  But my biggest gripe though is the length of the workout.  Most run 75min to 90min long.  Which can be tough to fit in with work and family life.


Update as of 5/18 down to 143.5 lbs.  So far down 12.5 pounds in 30 days.  My original goal was 142 but I think I have a new goal of 130 with more fat loss and some muscle gains.

Nice thread... I too am trying to get back into shape..  I have recently had to give up Triathlon training due to knee surgeries, and at 37 my time to enjoy a lifetime game is finally here (so I am fully dedicated to learning Golf)... but I am trying to get back in shape since I fell so out of shape due to the knee limitations..

    • Day 19: worked with foam balls for a while. Going slow to make sure I’m rolling and twisting. It feels weird, which is good. Going to take more work, but I’m on the way I think. 
    • Day 39 (16 Apr 26) - Back to easy swings as the lead foot was overly tender from yesterday - stuck to some easy pitches with wedges and a few 1/2 tempo swings with 6i.  Was good to slow down and work on setup and overall alignment…
    • I saved the ball and wrote the details -- "my first eagle," course, hole number, and date on it.  Maybe I should write the yardage and the club too.
    • Day 8, April 16.  Continued pelvis turn drills after work today;  I've already spent 20 minutes doing this, am taking a short break (and have fulfilled the challenge for the day) and then I'm back to it.  
    • Played 9 holes tonight. Driver is hit or miss, but I haven’t practiced that at all. It was a struggle to get sequencing down for the arms and lower body. I definitely have to do my downswing wrist piece a lot or I just push the crap out of the ball. Pitching needs some work. Chipping was good, chipped in twice. Putting was fine.  Shank Counter: 2
