Due to my current diet and exercise regimen, I have lost 3 pounds in the last week.  I am calling that a success.

I have made the decision to lose some weight.  Not to impress women or anything juvenile like that, but because I'm motherfucking awesome and I deserve to have a nice body. 

I have always been strong and had impressive endurance, but I've always carried extra weight on my frame.  I'm sure if I got a bit leaner and had less dead weight, I could be very formidable.

More power to you, dude! As someone who has been enjoying the benefits of losing extra weight, I know just how great it feels to look at yourself and think "DAMN I'm hot stuff!".

Bowen:  Basically, I do three weight training and three cardio workouts a week, and take the seventh day off.

I split weight training into upper and lower body, alternating on weight training days (Two upper and a lower one week, two lower and an upper the next)

For weight training, I try to work until I literally am so tired I can't do anymore after 3 sets of 12.  I lift with slow, controlled movements, and take twice as long to lower the weight as I did to lift it. 

For cardio, I do interval training where I gradually increase intensity until I'm doing all I can for a minute, then drop down, doing 4 cycles of that over 20 minutes.  Trust me, if you do it right, 20 minutes is all you need.

Basically, it is designed to be efficient, and to push me to my personal limits and beyond.  I have been at a plateau for a long time because I wasn't pushing myself for a very long time.  I am starting to see some nice improvements in the past week.

As for food, I assume one "portion" is about the size of my fist, and eat a portion of carb and a portion of protein 6 times a day, and try to get 2 portions of vegetable somewhere in there.  (There aren't a lot of vegetables I can consume and not be violently ill, so I do supplement my diet with a multivitamin.

I do that already :p.  But I think that there are enough pragmatic benefits to dropping some extra weight that it's still worth my time.  Also, I'm limited by what clothes I can wear because of my awkward beer gut.  (All my extra weight is literally in my abdomen.  It makes me look off-balance.)

Thanks for the tips, they're pretty much what I've been doing as well, except only about 3-4 times a week due to a busy university schedule :)

As for extra weight, a lot of mine is in my thighs and some more in my belly.

I pretty much only have extra weight in my belly and thereabouts. While the rest of my body isn't "shapely" by any means, it's reasonably lean.  :D

When I ordered them, I didn't really think about just how incredibly small they are!  They're about half the size of regular dice!

I stole my friends DS roughly two weeks back and played LOTS of "The world ends with you", almost finished it when my PS3 and Assassins Creed 2 arrived. I finished the latter roughly an hour back now and all I can say is "Need the third game!!!".

Not that anyone noticed my lack of absence, but I now intend to return to BG. See you more in the future.

That is not a totally wrong image you have there. I was, however, also on a small break from most of the internet.

Lady molted the other day and has deigned to show her face today.  I snapped a pic.
