Weight Loss Journey

Yesterday I decided I wanted to get my life on a healthier track, after calculating my BMI I see I need to be at 135lbs or less to be at a healthy weight. Yikes! I’m only 29lbs. away from that!

So, I grabbed my camera, put on some workout clothes and smiled for the camera:

My Goal is to be at 135lbs by my 38^th Birthday – that gives me right at a year to do this.

How am I going to do it?

* Eat healthier - consume more veggies and whole foods. Make wiser choices. No food after 7pm except on special occasions.

* Get some form of EXERCISE everyday - I need to move everyday if possible. This is going to be my biggest challenge. Wear a pedometer and strive for 10,000 steps a day, even if I have to walk around the house a few more times.

* Drink more water - consume 40 - 60 oz of water per day. This one will require some work, water is sooo bland to me.

* Being accountable - I'm going to document the process via the only way I know how: Blogging and Scrapbooking, I'm a sucker for before & after shots.

* Enlisting fitness buddies - I've announced my intentions to my family & girlfriends, and we have all agreed to encourage, support and even push each other on our paths to better health. I realize in the end, your buddy isn't moving your legs on that treadmill, but support does matter and I plan to share with them.

* Buy new shoes - Shoes make everything better! They make you feel like you are getting dressed up to really DO something.

There's the plan & we'll see what happens next...
