1 cup spaghetti sauce? A serving is 1/4 cup, that's A LOT of sauce at a time.
How many calories were you eating before to get that heavy?

Mate, you're not going to get shredded in a few weeks.
Everyone realises that.
So I'd suggest getting that low calorie diet.
What I mean is, bump up the carbs (still the same kind, brown rice and stuff) to around 200-400 grams per day. Including fast carbs post workout (100 grams). Then go a bit lower with the protein. 170-200 grams per day of protein.
Make sure the carbs are quality. Don't opt for those easy-to-make microwave 3 minute packs. It kills ya.
But you shouldn't be under 2500-2700 calories per day IMO.
Get some kind of cardio in everyday. A short walk in the morning is great, 5 minutes are better than nothing. Shoot for 25-40 minutes though, brisk walks before breakfast.
My point, if there is a point (LOL), is that you cannot expect to go on a hardcore diet right now. You rather need to clean up your diet, eat very nutritious. And of course, keeping a few hundred calories a day under your daily caloric expandure. By doing this, you'll do a transformation until next summer.
But a crash diet, with low carbs, that will only fcuk you up and demoralize you, and chances are you will lose your lust for training and getting somewhere too.
Realistically, you will be able to shed 30 lbs until next summer, while adding muscle.

I'm down 2 lbs from last Tuesday...so up the carbs and drop the pro...gotcha....cardio is usually elliptical,,,back starts hurting bad when i do any kind of jogging....usually that means me not touching a weight for 2+ weeks at a time...or better yet walking before I got to work would be even more ideal.....about the spaghetti sauce. 1 cup of classico Triple Mushroom sauce is 150-160 calories, 24 grams carbs, 6 gram pro,,,and the fat prolly comes from the olive oil at 4 grams...according to fitday.com.....I average anywhere from 2300-2800 cals a day.
thanks everybody

Sounds great.
One thing though. Check every food label for listings of sugar.
You don't want sugar in your food, generally.
Also search the net on how to cook food nutritious and still delicious?
Little tip: Contents on labels are always listed in the size they appear. So for a coca-cola it looks something like this: water, sugar, citric acid, et al...
Search the net for more of these tips, and remember!!!!
You can always eat as much veggies as you wish!!!! Steam 'em if you like!

I am no pro by any means however if I were you I would do a complete tear down and rebuild once I was in a healthy bf range. Maybe this has already been stated, I dont know as I didnt read all the posts. I understand that jogging is hard for someone morbidly obese, so like you said ellipticals, I would also suggest lots of swimming it burns hella calories and its easier on the joints. Once you get within a healthy bf range then start worrying about muscle. Remember that life is a marathon, not a hundred yard dash keep truckin and set realistic goals. Good luck bro, and props for posting a pic!

morbidly obese? He is overweight, but he also appears to have a thick foundation under there. Remember the golden rule, eat less and move more(and bust your ass in the gym).

targeted ketogenic diet. My favorite. I think the fat would melt right off of you.

so you still eat the high fat/pro meals before and after the 25-50grams carbs a day or is it lower in Fat....I tried CKD a while ago...it sucked....lifting with 20g a day,,,omg just shoot me...especially that last workout.

Bro, just stick with eating healthy and slightly under your daily caloric expandure.
Some fast carbs and a little protein post excersise, but other than that... It ain't rocket science.
Just avoid stuff with sugar on the label, and stuff that will get your insulin levels yoyoing. Stuff like rice cakes and shit. Those are terrible.

I pulled this from a medical website:
"Morbid Obesity
Definition
The term morbid obesity refers to patients who are 50 - 100% -- or 100 pounds above -- their ideal body weight. Alternatively, a BMI (body mass index) value greater than 39 may be used to diagnose morbid obesity."
I could be off, hard to tell by the pic, but I think Migizi could be at a 39 bmi or greater. Hey maybe I'm wrong, I didnt classify him like that to be a prick either I realize now that I was probably harsh there.

I give the guy tons of credit for posting his pic. I thought you were being a dick. My bad.

he probably is morbidly obese. It sounds harsh but that term looks as if it applies just from that photo. I'm not saying he is for sure but anyone with a good deal of muscle will be catagorized in the obese section by these gay charts and experts. So in turn someone who is very fat is almost certainly in this area.

I got tested by my doctor at the washington hospital center, and my bf% was 31.6. Hey it used to be 38 back in Nov.-Dec.....that's when she was worried....so almost 7 % drop.....that's pretty good right? Yesterday was my first day of 350 carbs,,,,200 pro....I steamed 2 heads of broccoli the night before so was carrying around little tupperware full of broccoli in my small cooler.. protein was mainly starkist tuna packets, 2 jennie O turkey burgers, and Body Fortress Whey. I also cooked up a big batch of Kashi's breakfast pilaf. it's a mixture of 14 different grains...1 cup is 60 grams complex carbs and 6 grams fiber....it's awesome with splenda.

props!

if you cant run try riding a bike. Ride your bike to work or to the gym burning those extra calories really helps.

Thanks for all the suggestions, info....been doing lately 45-50 minutes in the morning on an empty stomach,,,lift at lunch,,,and from Thursday-Sat I danced for like 4 hours a night...I'm getting all kinds of people coming up to me (since I took a month off from going out) "holy shit, you're looking good!" I got hit on by a capitol hill policewoman last week which was funny....oh and heard a capitol hill policeman say "Roids change people quick" (behind my back) I walked back to him and said "I'm 100% natural, it's hard work, and dedication, that's getting me this way" he felt like an ass after hearing him though.

Yo that is awsome. You gotta keep chopping away at it. I just worry about you hitting a wall or sticking point and how that might play on you phycologically. But just keep at it, youll be fine. Big ups.

This has got to be one of the best trolls I've seen in a while. But you broke the #1 rule of trolldom: you are getting too greedy too fast. It takes time--months, even--to bait people, or so I hear. You need to carry on a good storyline, not basically say "Well, now that I've been working out for a couple weeks cops are accusing me of juicing, etc" That just strains credibility. And BTW, that pic you posted of yourself--what's your name? I've seen that same pic used on two different powerlifting boards in the past year, and in both instances the person was a troll claiming, alas, much the same thing you're claiming now. Sorry to have to be the one to expose you, but I see this a lot on boards these days...

bump.
LOL, well what do ya know, the troll ran away after being exposed. My new nickname should be "Troll Killer."
My next target is TA.
