Ive posted a lot of times about losing weight. I dont know if this time will be different. Something has got to give though. I weigh 221.3 pounds right now. Most of my health concerns can be fixed by bringing that down to a healthy weight. My doctor would like it and all of my clothes will fit again if I get into the low 190s. I would love to get down to the 160s. So, I need to lose about 15-30% of my body weight.Exercise: I am going to look into competing in triathlons. I would like to compete in one by next spring. In the mean time Im going to start training for 5k runs. I will also start riding my bike again. I would like to get a membership to a pool. My plan is to do one of these activities every day for at least 30 minutes a day. On the days that weather prohibits me from doing one I will be doing Wii Fit. In summary, I am going to be more active. I have to be.
Diet: I am pre-diabetic and suffer from acid reflux. My doctor says that both of these can be managed by diet. I am going to start by limiting my breakfast and lunches to only things that are compatible with these lifestyles. This means that I will not be able to eat anything at work. Nothing. No exceptions.
If you happen to read this blog still, you have probably gathered that this post has been a way for me to hold myself accountable.
