GW: 164 by end of 20160 -
I'm a little late, but I would like to join.
Starting weight: 169 on 10.26.16, but I have lost just a few pounds
Goal Wt: 145, for now
Interim goal weight: 159, which puts me just within a high normal BMI.
MY PLAN AND LIFELONG PRACTICE:
I'm getting back into controlled eating and exercise after a long stretch away, over a year or so, for various reasons. I did a 3 hr hike today. I've found I cannot lose weight without exercise. The best i do by dieting alone is stop gaining. Also, My body deteriorates. Most of my life, I've exercised regularly, but injuries, work, doctors orders, not wanting to get out until I lose weight (catch 22), travel, medications, trying to please others with their schedules, etc., ...have held me back. Time to break the sedentary cycle and return to a lifelong minimal maintenance of diet and exercise. Not a temporary diet and exercise plan, but a lifelong practice.
My commitment is: 1) some movement daily.
2) Weekly, at least 20 min each, to start, of stretch related, weight related-upper and lower body, and cardio. 3) 2 hikes per week. 4) Minimum 2 1/2 hours per week, which is the Minimum recommended by many Dr groups and the heart association 5) 1200 cal, but I can make it up if I'm over, and quality exercise calories can be subtracted 6) 8 glasses of water a day, including a glass before each meal. 7) Get organized for exercise: Get a pedometer.
Find my weights. Look for a bike. Running shoes and clothes in a ready place. A couple of pairs of exercise and hiking clothes ready. Fix a drawer of hiking exercise socks, maybe get new ones. Find a support group. Water in car. Find my ankle supports. Get good hiking sunglasses. Get stuff for hiking lunches. Get new exercise tapes. Try for a punch card at the gym as winter weather comes and keep a gym bag loaded.
8) Go to the grocery store at least once per week...I hate it! 9) Control my alcohol...I have a partner who fills my wine glass to the top every time we sit down. Lots of calories! Limit to 2, and find something to put over my glass. Try apple cider vinegar to substitute. 10) Reduce my meds, which I've been doing pretty well at...they grog me out and make it harder to exercise. This plan is flexible enough to work for me if I'm traveling, have company, really busy, sick or whatever, so really no excuses.
11) Remember my motto: "Focus on and Do what I can, not what I can't." There is more than I can do, than I can ever get to anyway.0
