Started the process

Today I spent the day web searching for new workout diaries. I haven't been able to find my old workout planner and so was hoping to find something. However
ethicalcannibal saved the day and found our old one.
We then commenced the measuring of my various body parts. It was a little disappointing but I suspected the end result. I don't think I have changed much myself since we worked at the gym, rather I think the trainers were nervous they might touch "boy parts" when measuring so they never got a fully accurate measurement.
I am also going to try and implement a more "diabetic" diet. I am hoping this staves off my family tendency to get diabetes (both sides of family have it) plus it will reduce my overall sugar intake.
Because I am weightlifting I am not going to weigh myself and track my weight. I am a big guy (normally around 270lbs, but at 6'3" or so it doesn't look as bad on me) I could lose 40lbs easy and be healthier. Since muscle weighs more than fat I wont measure the weight as if things are going right I will either maintain or get heavier if I ever super bulk out.
Finally today I reopened my caloriecount profile. I am not worried about weight, but I am worried about tracking what I eat. I need something I can continously input my food intake. I need to do it as I go and not wait until the end of the day, so I don't "forget" anything.
I figure at the end of each month I will remeasure my parts and see where I stand. The only thing left I need is a body fat calculating machine.
