60 day weight loss challenge! Anyone?

Options
I started my 60 day insanity challenge yesterday however this challenge is being started from today and I don't mind giving another day. You don't have to be doing insanity to do this. The name of the game is to set your own goals and if you lose 10lbs at the end of it you done something right!! You can still join if you are not starting to the 1st. 58 days is as good as nothing

Please complete your stats as below and come back after 30 days and see how you done. Good luck everyone, you can do this! If you want to keep yourself accountable you can come back every day and confirm you have exercised and ate right!

Start date: 29th December 2012
Starting weight - 303 pounds
BMI – 49.32
Waist – 56 inches
Chest – 54 inches
Hips – 63 inches
Neck – 19 inches
Top of inner thigh – 46 inches
Top of arm – 26 inches
Body Fat Percentage - 44%


What do you want to achieve by the end of the challenge?

I want to fit into my new dress, lose at least 30lbs and complete the insanity challenge without fail.


What exercise will you be doing?

I will be following insanity. I intend to exercise for 6 days a week and miss one day for rest but will probably go for a walk if I am able to. Five days a week will be with insanity and the other day will be with my personal trainer!


What diet plan will you be following?

I am following slimming world but keeping my calories to a minimum of 1200 a day and will only eat back my exercise calories if I am hungry which no doubt I will be!!
