Good Monday to you all :)
I hope you are all feeling bouncy and happy today (even though the weather has taken a turn for the worse)
So..... you want to lose some weight with me then? ?
Plan : I am going to be completely honest with you on this journey and i am not ashamed to tell you my weight or size (so PLEASE do share with me your goals and successes) We can, as a team work together and achieve our goals.
So.... to help me track my weight loss i am going to be using an app on my iPhone (don't panic if you don't have an iPhone you can access it online) This is the link for it http://www.myfitnesspal.com/ - Its a fantastic tool for you to track your daily food diary and also to track your weight and measurements.
There is a huge database of foods already on there but you can manually add anything you need too. When you sign up you enter all your information and also your target goals and it works out how many calories per day you should be eating for you to achieve your goal in a healthy and manageable way. You can also track your exercise on there to earn extra calories :) yayyyy
You can also join the online community and add people as 'friends' and you can add updates on there to keep each other motivated - My user name is 'Haypresto' so feel free to keep me motivated :)
So - Here are the hard facts about me .....
Height - 5'2
Current Weight - 146lbs
Goal Weight - 126lbs
So that's a 20lb weight loss target - I am not in a massive rush to lose it as i want to keep it off so here we go ...... Each day i will post an update on food ideas and also ways to keep fit without always having to go to the gym. :)
Get your friends and family to follow and we will do this all together - And please don't forget to tell me about your progress and any tips for us all :)
Please note: I am not an expert, I don't claim to know about nutrition - Please seek advice from a doctor if you haven't exercised in a while and also if you are concerned about dieting.
Lots of love and hugs
