I'm starting to change my life....again... for the 7th time. Hopefully this time i'll get somewhere. To clarify, I'm a yo-yo dieter and i started since 7th grade. I was about 13 years old and now i'm 21. At my highest weight, i think i weighted 210. At my lowest i think i weighted about 165. And now i feel like i'm back at square 1, weighing in at 196lb.
I tried everything i possibly can to shed these
pounds but it always seems to come back on. I tried not eating. Eating nothing but veggies. Eating everything but carbs. Exercising 4 hours a day. I would do all these extreme crazy things until i would be too tired or too hungry to do them anymore. Then I would just give up and go back to old habits. Yeah, its pretty bad.
So here i am once again starting my
weight loss crusade. This time i'm gonna do it right. Healthy eating habits and healthy way of exercising. And this time i'm gonna make it!
So here are my stats:
Height: 5'8
Current Weight: 196 lbs
Goal Weight :125 lbs (consented by my doctor)
Weight to lose: 71 lbs
Meal Plan:
Breakfast - Bowl of Cereal
Snack - 1 fruit
Lunch - Sandwich w/ whole grain bread (no mayo)
Snack -fruit
Dinner - Chicken or Fish & Veggies
Exercise Plan:
Mon. - 2 Hr of Basketball
Tues. -
Strength training / aerobic
Wed. - 2 Hr. of Basketball
Thur. -
Strength Training / dancing
Fri. 2 Hr. of Basketball
Sat. - 1 Hr Aerobic
Sun. - Pilate
My
goal is to lose 1 lb every week. Which equals to 4 lbs every month. I have 71 lbs to lose so it would take about 18 months to reach my
goal weight. Nice and steady. I look forward to a new and improved me by January 2008. Right on the start of a new year.
I'll be updating my progress every week. However, I will not weigh in every week because my doctor told me that I might gain some muscle and water weigh before actually losing any. So I won't depress myself by weighing in every week. I'll weigh in every month instead.
If any one has some tips on proper
dieting please give me a reply. I'll be happy to hear from anyone.
