Yes. I have changed my diet these last few weeks. I eat 3 instant packs of oatmeal with strawberries and pecans/walnuts for breakfast, sometimes with a banana. For lunch I have a tuna wrap with sliced Roma tomatoes. Usually it's about 2 cans worth. And then for dinner I have salmon and spinach (last week it was west Indian curry chicken thighs). For a snack I eat cherries. I do about 45 mins to an hour of cardio 3 to 4 days a week so far (mainly treadmill walking and jogging. I still have issues with carbs though. I am looking for a low carb oatmeal alternative.@Thatrogueassdiaz have you started yet?
It's very simple, like others have said all you need to do is eat less and exercise more
Here's a complete PPL workout with all the reps and sets. And if you're really dedicated do @ThaBronxBully couch to 5 program at the same time, since it's only 3 days a week.
No, I'm not saying PPL is 3 days a week, PPL is 6. I'm saying if he wants to add extra cardio to it the "couch to 5k" running program is only 3 days a week.No offense but you are wrong. The workout is not 3 days a week(PPL should really be done 6 days). Maybe if he had a coach that might work but it's better to keep it simple.

@xXMASHERXx I watched some of the starting strength videos. They're pretty good. Actually I saw that they were supposed to open a starting strength gym in portland earlier this year (I live in portland oregon), but it looks like it hasn't opened yet. I am going to get a gym membership, so I can do compound weight lifting.

PPL is only one off day a week.

How so?I can see you stalling out quickly on SS if your calories are that low.
How so?
What would you say is carb limit ? Because I think I'm having too many carbs.SS is like SL5x5 (but lower volume). The weight gets added to the bar quickly, and the heavier the weights, the longer the warm-up sessions are and the harder it is on your body.
Folks that try to do SS/SL on a cut usually flame out much faster than folks at maintenance or on a bulk.

Your carbs are already low and you're tryna add more cardio and compound weightlifting on top of that?

I'm still learning....There is no "carb limit" and the myth that carbs are somehow "bad" is just proof that folks literally have no idea what the fukk be going on inside their own bodies.
Carbs are not bad. Eating carbs isn't bad. Carbs don't need to be limited. If you find yourself gaining weight unintentionally, it's because you're eating more calories than your body needs for fuel. It really doesn't matter if those calories are from fats, carbs, or proteins*.
*Some studies suggest it's harder to get fat on higher protein diets, but take that with a grain of salt.
Again, it's not my body or training and your goals aren't mine, but as someone who's done SL for more than a year in total, going low carb on this program will have you kicking your own ass. Do what you will with that.

Glad someone else gets it. People are always blaming carbs but can't even tell you how many carbs they are consumingThere is no "carb limit" and the myth that carbs are somehow "bad" is just proof that folks literally have no idea what the fukk be going on inside their own bodies.
