7 days in...

Ghyllfoot

Well, last Monday I weighed myself at 220lbs with an aim to lose 28lbs by 1st July and a total of 52lbs by 31st December 2011 at the latest.

I am now 7 days in and thus far finding myself rather content (especially as I have been running for the past 4 days burning over 300calories each run).

Now I know I can do this, the first week was always going to be tough, making that decision to admit to the weight, admit to the task ahead of me and admit that I WASN'T happy as I was.

I plan to run at least 4 times per week, possibly 6 of varying inclines, distances and speeds (all on my treadmill) coupled with a deficit of 990 calories per day I know I can achieve my goals.

I didn't want to post too much before I got the first week under my belt and don't get me wrong I am not being complacent or cocky but if anyone wishes to add me as a "friend" on the site then I shall happily reciprocate and let's see if we can't help each other through our own mini-goals.

Good luck to you all.
