"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

Going into a calorie deficit got a lot of weight to lose (30lbs) I'm feeling a little low on energy though any tips. I should add I'm doing the strong lifts program and I walk everyday 5 miles and work early :-(

you're on the right track. My best advice would be don't go too crazy on the caloric deficit because it's counter-productive -- you lose water weight at first, but then inevitably you'll binge and gain back all the weight plus interest... most men need around 2000 calories per day just to maintain a constant weight.

I would say drop your calories to around 1700 and continue doing the light cardio (walking). Eventually your body will adapt to the walking and you'll need to change it up...

While walking, I recommend dropping down and doing pushups every 2-5 minutes so that it spikes your heart rate.

If you are 30+ lbs overweight, do not drop your cals to 1700 straight away.

Can you give me your current weight and height.

at your height, i would drop the 30 lbs you mentioned. just dont do anything drastic. download the lose it app. it will give you a daily calorie budget with the deficit you need. you can set your goal as losing either 2lbs a week or 1.5/1/.5 lbs. this app has helped me lose 10+ lbs in the last few months. hold yourself accountable because weight loss is not easy.

GOOD LUCK!
