How I Lost 50 pounds in 5 months (lost fat, looking fit, eating clean)

I was the fat kid picked last in kick ball and soccer. I was the fat kid at the water park with a t shirt on. I was the teenager who was shy in front of girls. I was , i was , i was ... 

I am the 31 yr old who has goals, how now sets the example in my own family who all had a six pack once in their life, everyone .. except me. but let's see what the future brings!!! Can Iget a six pack by new years 2014???

lets see...

I will update this but I'm 31 years old 5'8 155lbs. 1/2 spanish, 1/4 Japanese, 1/4 White ! Raised in Provo, Ut. Went to Provo High, and had good looking confident friends, and less confident beautiful friends. and.. friends with potential.

Studies show that for my height and age range, a fit Japanese is 130-145-lbs. a fit hispanic 155-165 lbs and a fit American is 170lbs. I also recently had my  Biometric Screening test (begining of Aug. 2013 165lbs), and I was told i was  10 pounds over weight. That was 10pounds ago, so now I'm in the Fit range, and still no sick pack , ahhaha. But, I see it in the near future. 

If you have any insight, comments, please feel free.

Here's my plan! 

Here ya go .. It's simple.

 Here is an updated email!! 50.2lbs lost in 5 months!!

The muerte nutrition plan!! 

Out of 100% of getting fit 

 80% is good nutrition and only 20% is sleeping well and exercise

 That being said!!! All the "gurus" who tell you things about having to "lift" I'm sure is all great ... But I'm living proof to show them.. The easy way !! I know they say no pain no gain!!! ... But it is pain to not eat twizzlers and milk shakes and French fries everyday like I used to!!

It's not so much a diet as is eating clean, 6-8 meals a day( size of your fist) every 1 1/2 to 2 hours, no sweets no breads, no cheese. And one day of the week eat whatever, except desserts and sweets!!  That means my meals are (example) no more than 220 calories per "meal"!! : sausage and bacon,(2 hours later)  granola cereal,(2 hours later) apple(2hl), ,pastrami wrap( tortilla and pastrami slice and mustard and hot sauce with lettus(2hl) beef jerky and almonds(2hl) fruit smoothie which is usually bananas with blue berries or watermelon or for the last meal of the day a salmon party from Costco !!! And I drink a gallon of water a day!!! 

Drink 16 oz of water the second you wake up to hydrate and start your metabolism !!

Remember mustard has no calories!! 

Remember spicy things ..like hot sauce, pepper, ect. Speeds up your metabolism !! 

You can not exceed 2 hours to eat otherwise your body will start storing the food as "emergency fuel" and if you aren't about to go on a run and burn it, your body turns it into your storage( fat) 

It's pretty freaking easy. If I can do it, so can you!! Good luck!! Keep me posted!! Take before and after pics!! 

Also!! The food items are just an example of what I eat, it varies... Some days I will have avocados , grapes, green peppers, broccoli , spinach salads( Costco has amazing salads!!)  good rule of thumb , stay around 90-200 calories per " mini meal" 

The amount of water people over 100 pounds should be drinking is a gallon - a gallon and a half a day! Never pee yellow! 

Don't drink calories! Drink water! It took a week for me to get used to it!! Now I'm not even tempted!

Also!! Understand that sodium is good but not in mass amounts as Americans do!! Sodium, or salt, is in a lot of foods... The more sodium you take in , the more bloated you will look, because it contains the ability to hold on to water.. You will not see results as much. So remember put down the crackers and chips!!

The milk I have with my granola cereal is either soy, wheat, or yummy almond milk.

The caloric intake per day I get is about 1400 my cheat day ( meal/ every week) is about 2800 calories.. 

Don't eat less than 3 hours before you sleep.

I fast once a month, means skipping about 3 meals. So if I eat my first meal at 8:30 then I eat at 4:30 depending on the time. 

If it has a commercial on tv, it's not in my clean eating daily meals!!!

Eat what god gave you!! Veggies, fruits, grains, meats, you can not go wrong with what he gave you, unless you are breaking the wisdom of food rule number one, portion size. The size of your fist is the most your stomach should take in at one sitting/ meal. The rest should be water.

Water helps hydration, which helps your body work properly at 100%, which helps burn fat calories, which helps wash out all the excess sodium, which makes your body more defined, which makes you sexier, which makes everyone around you more happy, even your mirror!! 

Also on cheat days!!! Never ever ever ever go American! And you know exactly what I mean, don't over eat because you think you can. Still use the one fist rule. Now yes you can have a nasty drippy all over the place burger.. Or 3/4 of a burger unless you order without the bun( which I did ) then you can have the full burger. But understand this , I'm a quarter jap, 1/2 mex, 1/4 white.. That means I have a strong stomach, I can eat sea urchins to the worst Mexican food imaginable, to greasy burgers, but your stomach will hurt like a dagger in it. I had a betos burrito( which I used to eat 2-3 times a week) I eat half, and my stomach hurt like the flu for the next 4 hours. So just use your brain. 

Clean eating means say no to the cookies, say no the the cake at everyone's bday party, say no to the ice cream, and all other things with sugar, no mtn dew, no shakes, no hot cocoa, and no chai tea!! I don't care how you justify it. 

Fat doesn't make you fat, sugar does!

Let me school you, if you are eating a banana or an apple or a handful of grapes and water Mellon or any one serving of fruit a day. That's all the sugar you need for 24 hours!!!! ANYThInG additional in the sugar category, is stored !!! Do you know what that means? Merry Christmas to noone!! You just gained weight! And not muscle !! The fructose in fruit serves as a little "functioning caloric burner "with a tad of energy.

FAT!!! Is healthy!!

Yup, punch your mom in the face for lying to you all these years!! Throw your tv in the garbage cause those people lie also!! Your body was made by the creator that gave you beasts foul and fishes!! These meats have healthy fat!! 

There are only 2 types of bodies! Sugar burner, and fat burner! Now !! Read very carefully!!! Most of the people you see, everywhere are sugar burners. Meaning they trained their bodies to burn sugar calories!! Ever seen a skinny chubby person, and your eyes are like.... Whhhhhhaaaaaat? Yeah ... Even if they run everyday, and they still have love handles, or maybe man boobs??? Yeah sugar burner... Or they are really top heavy and have a small butt? Or opposite... They are teeny up top... Then looks like an oddly shaped animal trying to escape out of their pants? Yeah sugar burner... If they even burn all the sugar they intake!!! Here's another sign... Ever get a little tired... Sluggish... Around 3pm and or 6 pm?? Yup merry Christmas ... You are a sugar burner!! And that's not good. But !!! You can change your body to a fat burner!!! As I did 2 and a half months ago!!! Instead of all the sugar !!! Stop! Only one serving of fruit a day!! And have your first or second breakfast for the day be 2 strips of bacon and depending the size of the sausage a full or half. And when you cool it poke fork holes all over and squeeze the grease out with your paper towels. So less grease but still some good fat!! 

Your body can use 2 sources of energy!! Either sugar or fat! If you use sugar you are eating tons of pastas and cookies and ice cream and donuts and all that crap. Yeah I said it ..crap!! Pasta is carbohydrates which breaks down into....???? Yup sugar!! That's why the mom you punched in the face earlier told you as a kid to eat spaghetti before soccer game, or a run, or whatever... Problem is, sugar gives you a teeny burst of energy, then it leaves you so tired you wished you never played soccer!! Your mom should have told you what I'm about to tell you!!! Eat some bacon and sausage!!! Boom!! Never tired!! Never sluggish after 12-24 hours just comfortable !! And here's something to know if you are one of those people who are still chubby and you go to the gym regularly!! You are doing it wrong!! On top of probably eating wrong... You are probably working out wrong!! You can burn calories..... Or you can burn FAT calories!!! You burn fat calories by being a fat burner, and also at the gym if you are using a treadmill high incline and extremely slow... Very very very. Slow( 1.5 mph) for the first 10 mins, then less slow(2.0-2.5mph) then go for for however long you want... More than 45 mins!! Total!! And all those calories will be straight fat calories , and you won't be winded after the workout!!! You will sweat but have your breath!!! Amazing right? 

K remember eat clean, stay clean, workout clean! And dry clean! 

And be fit clean!!

If I remember any thing else I will keep ya posted!!

If you need any help, email me. or coment, i will try to help the best i can.

question

12:13pmJared

answer

12:14pmJared

?

12:16pm(GIRL)

if a guy starts up a conversation with a girl

and acts very interested

and at the end of the conversation they exchange phone numbers

with the intention to hang out somtime

does he want her to text him first

or does he want her to wait for him to text her?

12:19pmJared

was the last hing he said was yeah text me sometime ........ or did he say..... ok ........so i'll keep you posted ....?

12:19pm(GIRL)

he didn't really say either...

well we were talkign about concerts and he's like hey next time you're going let me know

and gave me his number

/asked for mine

but the way the rest of the conversation went he was like "yeah we need to go there/do that sometime.."

if that makes sense

12:20pmJared

yeah ok .......... did he leave your presence with a hug ........ or a high five?

or ......... a flick of the rist .. kinda wave?

12:24pm(GIRL)

hahahahaha

oh jared

you are such a girl at heart

not really anything

his sister was in my ward in logan and he lives in salt lake right now

that's how i ran into him

i'll probably just wait for him

guys don't like girls who are in their face

they like a decent chase

12:26pmJared

well explain how the end was .. cause it will tell you ........ if he is waiting or if he is ready

...... and you cant really say that ....... all guys are different

12:28pm(GIRL)

it's okay. it was nothign special. i'll give it till next week and then maybe send him a text

yeah...but in general all human beings like a little bit of a chase

there's a thrill in wanting what you can't have...then kinda having it but not 100%...then eventually getting it and knowing you worked for it

12:30pmJared

well .... you ask for my advise but dont want it ........... hahhah ok kiddo

12:30pm(GIRL)

it's not that i don't want it

it's just that it's confusing me

i always like your advice

12:31pmJared

hahha so how was the parting of the convo ..... how did it end

12:31pm(GIRL)

and i don't like when you call me kiddo

12:31pmJared

?

12:31pm(GIRL)

12:31pmJared

hahhah i know i wanted a reaction

12:31pm(GIRL)

haha a reaction

i'll just make my "uh...annoying" face and roll my eyes

i'm sure you know what i'm talign about

ahh...i need to get ready for work

12:32pmJared

hahahah got it ....... ok ........ well if it was a see ya

a

non threatening

text like hey this is (GIRL)

whats up keep me posted on the concerts ;)

and any other time you wanna chill

....... then wait

12:34pm(GIRL)

that's kinda a boring thing to say

i hate when people text me awkward keeping in touch texts

i love the weird ones like "dude i just say someone in an eyeball costume"

by the way i did

she was 5 and it was sooooo cool.

12:36pmJared

there you go .... thats more your style so ........ do it

the point is non threatening

12:39pm(GIRL)

what is threatening?

text me

i'm leaving for work

12:39pmJared

:)

how to get in the door...... with the chicas

ok dooders (guys) read and take notes .......... ladies .............. if i say something you concur with ........... give me an amen .............. if you know something specific works better on you ..... feel free and leave your comment ...................here we go .....................

this is not a list of places of where to find chicas .......... they are at the library........... wal mart.......... the clubs ..the bar ..the neighborhood gas station...everywhere ......

start thinking positives......... i love myself ...... i love others... things like that ....... before you go hunting for a date .. and actually prove it to yourself that you love yourself...............if you look in the mirror and notice that wal mart clothing is more fashionable than your 1991 apparral in your closet then go for an up grade ............ type in designer denim into google................ give yourself an upgrade ............. get them at second hand stores so you are paying only 10% of the actual price.......... now you are ready ............

you have 15 seconds from when the girl at the bbq, pool party , dessert party, acoustic night at your friends house, or movie night at muertes........ 15 seconds ........... from when she sees you ............... if you let the time go by and she looks around and sees you starring back at her ..... now you are dubbed the creepy guy who was mentally undressing her in your mind ............ dont waste time .............

there are a couple different types of girls out there .......... imma share some thought on the ones that you will find at these types of engagements..........

the the princess : the princess is the type of girl who has had loads of dooders following her since grade school........... in high school they made a movie about these girls ....... the mean girls ....... these girls are treated as royalty from every guy out there because the stupid guys think ........... ("oh........... shes hot..... i need to be extra nice to her and treat her like every other guy does ............ if im nice and give her my lunch money that she is asking for ................. maybe she'll talk to me again").................. WRONG ............ you are being used ..........this type of girl has a self image problem .......... thinking she can get anything she wants because ........ she has a nice rack ....... or she can because guys everywhere bow down to worship her ........her world is her toy...................

the ugly duckling : this is a process ........... this girl growing up ......... got teased cause maybe she didnt have any boobs in middle school or high school ....... or maybe she didnt grow into her ears ..........or her nose .............. maybe it took her longer to lose her "baby fat".............. now this girl is freaking gorgeous ............ but still has the personality of the ugly duckling ............ this girl is a diamond ........a gem .............. she might think she is ok ............... but not realize everyone around her thinks she is a 9 or a 10............... these girls have great personalities ............ but you dont know til you talk to them ........

with both of these types of girls ............... its hard to decipher the difference by the body language if you are not used it reading the signs ............ but just talking to the girl ............... you'll tell ........ you'll get a vibe in the first 30 seconds .......... just listen to what she is saying and how she is saying it ...............stop trying to think of what to say to impress her ........ just respond to what she is saying but let it flow naturally ........


ok ok.......... example of dealing with the princess type : lets say you are at a halloween party ........... and she is a sexy angel or bunny or something like that ...... and she is in a group where there are 3 other girls ...... talking over the home made dry iced rootbeer ........... she catches your ninja turtle outfit as you grab some chips and salsa and you join the group focusing the not so hot girl dressed as the ghostbuster ....start up a conversation on how her back pack works tell her about the last haunted house you went to ........ and tell her she should go to a haunted house dressed as a ghost buster ........ say something stupid to get the convo going ...while you are focusing on this girl....the hottie angel is wondering why you arent talking to her ........ she wants attention.........so.. then say speaking of ghosts ...... then turn to the hottie angel and say ..... yeah you have some sorta salsa on your wings or something ........ ( throw her out of her element ...you never want to have you enter their space in their zone .........) then continue talking ghostbusters then when angel girl realizes there is no salsa on her wing ...... she'll say hit you on the arm or push you and call you a jerk .......... look at the ghostbuster girl ...... ask .... wow is she always this rude point to the angel ........ continue talking to ghostbuster ....start to end the convo........ then right before angel turns to walk away .............. say hey ........ salsa ............. then strike up that convo .............so ............. i didnt know you were into star wars with your princess la-ya outfit ........... (its an angel outfit ).......... seriously where did you get that from ........ my friend such and such was looking for a costume like that ............ blah blah blah ................

ok so guys what did we learn about this ?................ by the way i just pulled this out of my back pocket ...... i made it up ........... but thats what you have to do........ you need to have your improv up to par ................ it works trust me ............. thats for the princess ...............



ok first off "men".......there are lots of rules to follow ...............rules: if you aren't currently dating this particular girl dont tell her you think she is extremely beautiful every 2 minutes ................ i dont know what the hell you are thinking .......... guys ! you actually think you are gonna get to eventually go out with this girl if you tell her the exact same freaking thing she hears every day of her life ?................ you ever heard of a girl complaining that guys are only asking her out cause they are starring at her chest the entire night ?........ yeah i hear it all the time ...... come on man be original ................ put yourself in her shoes ........ you are a girl .......... hot ....... and great personality .............. you get asked out 3 to 4 times per week ........... and the guy says .....( ok babe ..i thought we could go bowling ........... then to a movie or if you are hungry ...... i made reservations for this resturant ........ after .......... i thought we can do the door step scene where i spent $40- $50 bucks on the date ......... imma get a $45 dollar kiss outta you ....................) come on .............. really ? guys .............. dont be like every guy out there ........... if you know shes the type of girl that gets the awkward honks while shes joggin down the street ........... dont be over bearing and say ..... wow you are just so cute i want to kiss your lips ......................... holy crap man ............ shes gonna mace you in the freaking face for being creepy ..............what you gotta do is treat all girls pretty much the same way ......... you can't tell me you have a hard time talking to the cute girl and you can walk straight up the average girl and strike up a convo......... it's all a freaking game .......... it's all a freaking game ............. it's all a freaking game .......... got it ?........... in monopoly if you make the worng move ......... you do not pass go ....... do not collect $200 and you are stuck in jail with all the other sweaty loser guys who are too over bearing or stalkerish .. and on the flip side ..... too cocky ............. dooder .......... remember how in high school everyone that wasnt a football player .............. kinda sorta wished they were cause ........... we always saw them with the hot chicks ?............... ha ........... well dooders im here to tell you i was in the same boat .............. little back ground on el Muerte .....so ....... growing up in the older area of provo utah ..... i didnt have many kids my age i could hang out with ...... which obviously gave me one option ......... fighting with my brothers ..i was big boned ........ i was over weight ........ ok ok ....... i was fat ....... no way around me ....... i mean...... no way around it ....... i was the second heaviest kid in the 6th grade .............. and ........... the cutest freaking girl in the sixth grade was writting me cutesy letters about wanting to know if i liked her as more than just a friend ...... and valentines stuff .......... and she would ask me to dance in class and .......... any who ..................... guys .......... i was this short brown round butter ball......... and i still got the hottie in the class ......i was shy ... but the girls saw that as dark and mysterious ............ you know why ?............ i understood the secret .............. way back in the day ...................... middle school .............. i was a little less confidant ............ due to every other kid having a six pack .............. and i didnt like to run ........... i loved eating ........ and eating ........... and eating .............high school .......... i had my run with the ladies ............... i hardly if ever .............. asked a girl out .............. there was the random girl here and there ........on a blind date i totally was shocked ........... finally a girl who i thought was a ten ......so i was smooth ......... on the date ...... i didnt have it planned ......... i went with her older sister who worked with my mom ............ and her man .....i was pretty nervous but kept things chill ......... we had dinner at brick oven and she asked if something smelt strange ..... honestly thinking back .... i probably had nervous gas ...... but she and i were trying to find this smell at the table ...... and i totally pulled it out of my back pocket ...... i said oh i've been at this table before ......... its that part of the wall ..... trust me ..... its a strange smell ....... so there she is just sniffing the wall ....... while i look at her sister and everyone just starts laughing ......... she did as well ........ so.....gave it a couple of days then called her ..and i sealed the deal ... then she was my first real girlfriend ........... my senior year ............ wow she was everything ............... i felt like we had a mutual growing experience ............. helped each other .................... being yourself around a cute girl is essential ............ and if you have a hard time being yourself ....... fake it til you make it ............ im not saying be someone else .................. but the ladies dont like it when you dont have a good self image .......... come on man ........ think about it ........ do you want to be around someone who is negative about their self or others the entire time gripping about crap that doesnt ever matter ?.......... no ! why the hell would you waste your time like that ?.............. there are more fish in the sea ............. especially here in UTAH ........ land of the honeys

also guys ......... stop freaking creeping the girl out by being too touchy .......... if you are not to first base ............... stop trying to act like you are at 3 rd base ............. holy hell do you know how many girls i talk to that have this issue with guys ?.................... i wont name or count these but it happens .............. thats why you arent getting chics ...........that and if in the middle of the date she turns to you and says ........ i think you are too touchy ............... you'll never get a second chance with her ............ you just screwed yourself man .................. come on ............

we are talking about body language ............ if you to had been talking and she didnt touch your leg or your arm.............. do not touch her ................you will pop her bubble and you'll have to find another girl to strike up a convo with ............

if you are at a movie night at muertes place ................ and the odds are in the favor for you cause there are more girls than guys ...................... dont be creepy and not talk to the girls the entire night then mid movie ask a girl to come cuddle with you on the couch .............. she'll shut you down 9 /10 times ........... you have just either embarrassed her .......or made her close the door for your opportunity to get her number............. you might as well say ........... hey ummmmmmmm i noticed your so hot i want to touch your lips ......... and i was wondering if you are going to be walking to your car alone tonight .......?.......yeah ........ she'll mace you in the face and kick you in your cash and prizes ........

if you dont pay attention to anything im saying here ........... its your fault ............... to come to me and say .............. wow man utah girls suck ........... in colorado ......... if you ask a girl to sit on the couch with you ............. they do it ............... i wish i was back home ............... yeah .......... ummmmmmmmm ... dooder you shoot yourself in the freaking face then you blame it on the girl ?......................... dooder no matter what you look like ............. if you dont freaking have a good happy cheerful friendly attitude ................. noone will want to give thier number out to you ................
