All right first weigh-in I'm at 256.8 and my body fat is at 29% Not to bad for a little under a months work in my opinion...

wow, not bad indeed.

Along with dropping the pounds I want to focus on lowering my bodyfat. I hope to get down to 19% by the end of summer. Now how do I focus on burning just fat and not lean muscle?

lift heavy, eat good foods (cut out junk and sugars) and take in enough protein. It should be pretty easy. Once your body fat drops lower, it gets harder.

I'm down in south carolina for the weekend and went kayaking out on the lake today, feels good to actually see progress rather then just look at a screen that says how far I went...

Can't wait for kayaking season to start here in NY (around May 1). At that point, I'll switch at least part of my exercise routine to upper body workouts (sprinting on the Erie Canal), where I can actually enjoy using muscles and cruising past egrets and herons and other boats and things. By the end of the summer, I ALWAYS have incredible upper body strength, thanks to the kayak.

Down to 256... really getting into the gym and enjoying learning new excersises. The biggest difference I notice is feeling different muscles that I didn't know I had plus I can start to see more definition which is a good feeling... overall very pleased and can't wait to see the changes over the next month

wow nearly 20 pounds already! You're making great progress!
