Lifestyle change . . .That's been one of the hardest things to get through his head. Up until a couple of weeks ago his diet consisted of chicken and rice. His reasoning was "Hey Instructor, I'm Puerto Rican! It's what I eat." My response was 'It's how you're gonna die, too."

I think I've convinced him that he needs to rethink his dietary lifestyle. Time will tell.

TR - What is acceptable tonnage for a 21 year old at 5'6"? I advised him that he might not make it by the fall and he should be ready to go into overtime if that's the case. He wasn't happy but he did accept reality. --Nevermind, I saw the link on another thread, 170 lbs max.

My main concern was I was doing him harm by loosing that much weight in that short period of time. Getting lean sounds like a good idea, I need to research that.

Thanks
