OK it is absolutely time to set the game plan about the excess fat that I have around my, well, lets say, everywhere! There I said it! Now what am I going to do about it? I am setting my goals for each week as I start this journey to get back to the fabulous me that I felt comfortable with. I want to be able to wear the clothes I have saved hanging in my closet the past couple of years. I have some pants that are beckoning me to wear them again. My favorite pair may be a bit outdated, but they are my favorites and I have made fitting into them my goal. You can see them in the picture to the left. That was taken about six years ago. They are a size 4 and so help me I will fit into them again.
So here is the starting plan:
1.) I will drink 5 (8oz.) glasses of water a day. I know it should be 8 glasses, but I want to start with something reasonable and anything over would be a bonus. Ha!
2.) I will start powerwalking (my knees are bad and I can't run any more) 30 minutes a day for five days a week. I will also use free weights 3 times a week.
3.) No more late night snacks. That is where it all began to expand my waist! Snacks will be veggies or fruit.
That is a good start, because I have not done these in a very long time. By starting with reasonable goals I think I will be able to get the motivation to stick.
Anyone up for taking on any of these goals with me? Let me know so we can support one another!
