Last week I was at 283.1 and I want to get down to 187.1 (I came up with the .1 to make it a whole number).
I know that it's a lot and when you just think about the number it's kind of discouraging. It's really tough to know that you have so much weight to lose. But I am determined this time: I WILL lose 96 pounds. Week 1 is already completed and I lost six pounds. Not bad! I am quite happy with the number. I did not follow the diet completely but I tried to make smart choices when I had to change some stuff.
A little bit of background. I came to Canada ten years ago. I left the healthy mediterranean cuisine behind and I substituted it with junk. So year after year I kept adding pounds to my weight. As this was not enough, I went from playing a team sport (handball) to not exercising at all.
My plan is to start eating healthier and slowly introduce exercising back to my life. The only thing that I do right is that I walk a lot and I want to continue that. I hope to lose an average of 3 pounds per week. I believe it's a manageable number.
Well that's it for today!
