My promis to myself with your help...

[Bouncer]

I am going to recruit a trainer for this as well. I am going to set up the perfect diet, cardio, and lifting routine for me. I am going to start posting daily this Sunday evening for 3-4 weeks. The idea being setting up what exercise I did and what I ate when and for how long.

That being said I want to see what everyone thinks in terms of meal composition. I would like to consumer 2300 calories per day. My goal is to drop about 1.5lb a week, hopefully having the majority of that being fat. My intention is 4 days of morning cardio for 45-60 minutes and one day of biking about 30 miles. I am also highly active because of the volunteer work I do. Finally, I lift, of course. Questions or comments and help are appriciated.

Chris, glad you made the choice to help yourself. I hope you stick with it.

I think you have a little to much cardio planned at the start. I would start with 3 days of cardio a week, (Mon, Wed, Sat) 40 min each session.

you don't want to over do that cardio, can have an opposite effect of what you are looking for in terms of metabolism.

I personally wouldn't set a weekly goal of weight loss... standardized photos are a better lead to follow (if you don't know how to standardize a photo look it up)
