Hello Newbie,
Im kind of new to this site too and am trying to get fit- as directed by my boss. I am not overly fat, just not excersized for a few years so I took his challenge.
Using this site, I find that cleaning burns calories (whoppeeee), and if I can try and beat my calorie intake, adding a little excercise, I lost 21 lbs in 3 weeks. Running small distances did help- 20 minutes at your own pace. I moved to 30 minutes (3.4 miles) the second week, which is at a slow pace of 35 minutes.
My acievement was to compete in a military fitness run (I had to pay for it as a civilian) and shall I just say I completed the 12 km run (uphill, downhill, through muddy streams and with obstacles).
I am now going on another military fitness run in Dec 2011.
Reason I wrote all this, set a traget and dont kill yourself to reach it. Take your time and enjoy it.
Hope this helps.0 -
