Some good fitness tips in here. Everyone's body is different, so just find a routine/diet that works best for you and start there. Don't get too used to a specific workout routine for too long. Always change it up every couple weeks.

good shit swoosh! congrats! my neighbor dude has a good routine. he went from like my body to 8% and weighs like 190-195 or some shit. i wanna get like that but just can not do 2-3 hours of workout a day. that's a killer
things i need to do, stop drinking pop, stop eating snack foods and start eating veggies instead again.
used to be i would drink a ~gallon of water a day, have an apple and half a ziploc full of carrots and celery for lunch, then eat a small bowl of veggies w/ a potato/pasta/rice for dinner. lots of tea since i like that without sugar or anything like that.
now i eat whatever the fk i want, drink like 2-3 energy drinks (SF RB), and a pop daily. that right there is that 15 lbs-ish weight gain i bounced back on.
i really need my wholesome diet back, i feel like crap compared to last year

this is me on the right in 2009...38-40" waist
this is me in 2010 33-34" waist
and then this is me now in 2012 (minus my lumberjack beard now though)
pretty big changes quickly, all without having a real workout routine!
all these are me and the family, so no nasty comments or i will cut you!

^^^ hahaha i feel ya....and this is my advice:
1> Oatmeal
2> Pasta (brown)
3> Rice (brown)
4> Protein source as Chicken/Tofu/etc
and hell i spend 3 hours at Lifetime Fitness but only 45 minutes on the gym floor....15 minutes warm up (moderate ball play)....45 minute workout....15 minute cool down walk....so yeah 1 hours 15 minutes, and then i sit in the jacuzzi for atleast 30 minutes LOL....hahaha....
but yeah switch your workout every now and then, switch the exercise, rep count, sets, sitting/standing, barbell dumbbell....
i have your email id, will mail you 4-5 workouts if you want....
and yeah no SODA, no crap snacks....
take your regular sized meal and break it into 2....this is what i do:
morning 9AM: oatmeal and 2 egg whites....
11AM: lunch
2PM: 2nd lunch
5PM: protein shake OR 1scoop of protein in my oatmeal....
6PM: gym
7PM: post workout drink
9PM: dinner
11PM: light snack before bed (else i wake up in the middle of the night)....
so yeah you see 7 meals in the day

happy time change day e'rrbody!
last night went out to do some portraits. but as said before, the coached shots are tough. SO. i'm asking you guys to pick 2 or 3 of these worth putting into little online portfolio and whatnot.

1025, 1013, and 974 are my favorites.
1025 looks very casual, almost like she didn't know her picture was being taken. Simple and elegant.
1013 reminds me of a high school senior portrait. Her expressions aren't overbearing, rather just a gentle smile.
974 captures the surroundings beautifully. It doesn't focus on the girls nor the setting, rather it incorporates everything together which I love.
Have those been edited at all? I think they could all be brightened up a little. The last one could use the same treatment but try to reduce the brightness of the sky to the right hand side. Brightening the whole shot could overexpose that area.

^^^ so they are not family ??? right !!! hahaha i didnt wanna say anything just to find out the chic is your cousin LOL.... j/k dude LOL
loved DSC_1027 pic !!! i think was very very well taken (angle/pose/lighting)....the only suggestion i have (as a consumer) is that do not have 2 models take the exact same pose and post their pix one after the other....you are marketing your photography sills and not the models....you know what i mean ???

i tried on the last one...I don't think i did anything helpful lol, it looks awkward. either the subjects looks too bright, or the sky ends up looking to blownout.
thanks for the choices and comments Tyler, i appreciate it!

Nice shots Sean...that 2nd one above looks like it would have been a good candidate for an HDR merge to brighten up those dark areas around your models.

^^^see now in THAT pic, you look like a Vdubber (audi'er) all day long...something about the angle of your hat and that "morose youth of america" look on your face.
Just kidding...lol...you're a good sport, man. Great location for shooting too! I actually just set up a family pic for something similar. Mom and sis turned 60 and 30 this month...while sis was in town she asked for a family pic...I set up a few shots. It's hard with ocean since there's no point of reference to make the pic interesting...tried to catch skyline and some trees to help out.

well i have a gutted trunk now. only the rear decklid is left.
i found 2" of water in my trunk well. FUCKKKKKKKKK
pulled one of the plugs, that's the puddle under the car (this is an hour+ later from draining fyi)....the other puddle was from the paper towel i had to wring out water from.
the back seat was also wet....dunno how the fuck that happened, because i think i found the entry of water...
so....any ideas guys? i didn't pull the weather stripping off for further investigation for a reason. when i started to, i could tell that the metal/pinch was coming undone. i sure as fuck know that's bad, so i left it. plan so far is to at least enjoy the 100+ pounds of shit i pulled out of my trunk, plus all the weight of the actual trunk liner, jack, spare, back seats, etc. then head to a body shop tomorrow to see what they say.
all i know is this car is buttfucking me without lube lately and i want to light it on fire.
oh and i wasted the time i was going to spend at the park taking pictures. gay as aids.

^^^ @ your post !!!
your weather strip is leaking !!! pop it off, check it and replace it if needed (that is if rubber is cracked/etc)....sorry you have been encountering a lot of problems lately with the car....
and hate to correct you but you have taken off exactly: 59.5 lbs....i just gutted my trunk today as well....and i took off everything in the rear seat....i lost like 150 lbs....
took a wet microfiber and cleaned it out....will be taking some pix tomorrow....
also if you take the trunk damper off, you will save another 1.5 lbs LOL....
