The Velocity Diet (Altered)

I'll be starting a new program next week. The main purpose of this program is to shed some of the excess weight I've accumulated over the vacationing season.

The original program designed by Chris Shugart is here at T-Nation [The Velocity Diet]. I'll alter the diet portion to fit my needs.

Changes
- I'll eat oatmeal for breakfast
- Lunch will be optional in regard to limiting myself to just a Metabolic Drive shake. Some days a shake will be enough others I'll need to eat something "sensible". However I will only have a shake for dinner.

The workout will remain as prescribed in the original article with NEPA or intervals on the off days.
