Hey /fit/, stopped in a few times before, thought I'd check in with how things are going and see if you guys have more advice.
Current status: Still obesefag (over 300 somewhere, not bothering with scales, hell I could be under 300, fuck if I know or care, I just know it doesn't look right), but recently able to note increased muscle definition in legs (yes, I'm grasping for signs of improvement, trying to feel good here, brah). Where there used to be just uniform layer of calf-flesh with vaguely normal shape (larger towards knee, narrower towards ankle), it is now possible to see the indentation below my upper calf muscles when I tense.
Time spent at this: 1 month
Current workout: 1 hour cardio 3 times a week, 45 minutes cardio 2 times a week (second part more of a struggle, and recent addition).

Workout makeup: I'm a karatefag, raised to it, started at 4, it's what I know. I do 100 block/reverse punch, moving in stance, half forward, half back -- this is harder than it sounds, you're keeping knees bent, feet on the ground, trying your damnedest to not let your hips rise when you move.
40 snap kicks, side and front, moving in stance.
50 stance punches.
This takes about an hour. Take two 3~ minute breaks normally, do stationary upper body stuff (you really want to know? sword slashes, it keeps my heart rate from dying off entirely). The breaks aren't for death fatigue, it's for my joints. Ankle or knee injury = bad. Though yeah, I do feel pretty wasted by the end of the whole thing. The 45 minute version is 80 of the block/punches, 20 of the kicks, the punches, and three renditions of kata.

Continued:

Diet:
Breakfast - 1/2 cup OATZ, raw, with milk, dried blueberries, and some honey.
Lunch 2-3 times a week: 'health' frozen dinners (lean cuisine). This is because I'm running between classes. Half looking into making grilled chicken sandwiches instead. This is usually around 1:30pm.
Around 9am I'll have an energy bar or some beef jerky. Occasionally pasta or some turkey, mustard, and tortilla (just one) if I'm at home.
Around 11:30am I have peapods when at school. At home, I try to fit in fruit, peapods, or broccoli.
Evening it's a lot more jumbled, but in general: whole wheat bread, chicken or turkey, some cheese, pasta, broccoli. I try to keep portions small, eat at 3-4 hour intervals. Oh, and low fat yogurt.

I'm guessing too much bread/grain product in my diet.

Drink: Juice, skim milk, bottled water. A bit less than 1 can of diet coke a day/12 pack every 2 weeks.

Thoughts and Ideas, brahs? Thanks.

Eliminate energy bars. Add some olive oil with bread and try and work some whey powder in there. Instead of having to eat on the run, eliminate frozen meals by planning and making your meals the day before.

Also cut out the soda. Replace it with V8 or something. Juice is okay, don't overdo it. Simple sugars are better for you than the complex sugars in soda but keep in mind it's still sugar.
