    Name: Kristi, aka SpecialK_Flett

    Challenge starting weight: 192 lbs 189.4 lbs 8/19/11 down 2.6 lbs

    End of challenge goal weight: 153 lbs

    Your Plan to get to your goal weight: Maintain a calorie goal conducive to a pound and a half per week weight loss and to alternate days between my interval treadmill work out and Wii Fit Yoga. My goal for the treadmill is to start off with 30mins at a 3.5 incline, 2.5mph base and a 4.5 incline, 3.5mph sprint and increase my time by 5 mins every 2 weeks until I'm doing 45 mins at my starting speeds. Then I will do 2 weeks of 30 mins at 3 and 4 mph respectively. Once again, upping my time by 5 mins every 2 weeks until I'm doing 45 mins. Finally, my final goal will be 30, eventually increasing to 45, mins at 3.5 and 4.5 mph respectively.

    My Yoga Goal is to add a new pose every time, always doing at least 30 minutes every session. When the kids are back in school, my husband and I are going to look into Hot Yoga. We thought that, in addition to improving flexibility and balance, it would be a great thing to do ‘together’. Kind of an alone time thing :)

    I am also looking at joining some fitness classes at the Y when they start up again in September.


    Challenge Starting Measurements
    neck: 15"
    chest: 43 1/4"
    arms: left and right L-11 7/8", R-13 1/8" (can you tell I'm right handed, lol)
    waist: 41"
    hips: 45 1/2"
    thighs: left and right L-24 1/2", R-24 3/8"

    My regular weigh in day is Thursday (changed to Fridays) so I will be updating my weight then. I will also update my measurements every 2 weeks as this is my 'usual' routine.

    I have registered for the Run for the Cure event in Winnipeg, MB on October 2nd. Our team will be walking the event which is 5 kms so my August goal is to train to accomplish this without collapsing :)

    I have not been able to work toward my treadmill goals as it is currently down for repairs :(
