GrooveJock- very much enjoying your posts! keep it up! I'm thinking about going on the NYBP to get my ass in shape. Have lost a few (about 6 or so) cutting out the bad carbs and crap I was eating in the past two weeks. Would like to be mean and lean and cut, tho, which means dropping about 10 lbs of fat without losing muscle or otherwise sending my body into starvation mode. any words of wisdom? Keep it up!
