It’s the start of a new year and like most I have a new year’s resolution, yep you guessed it "to lose weight".
So here is what I am going to do?
I am going to keep a virtual diary with weekly updates. It will include
• current weight
• body measurements
• energy consumption
• exercise
• thoughts, aka my pychological profile (warning contents may disturb some readers…)
• progress pictures, ahhh the most embarrassing aspect of this process!
Come with me on my weight loss journey, I look forward to your comments including your advice, ideas, personal experiences, recipes and progress... read on...
I found this interview and I quite liked Alicia’s philosophy, so I’m thinking of buying it, I will let you know what I think?
This leads me to the next point. When Alan and I were first discussing the 25kg challenge we decided to have a 5kg reward system, as I need all the motivation I can get, sounds cheesy I know... You would think a life free of preventable diseases would be a pretty good motivator? Hmmm must sort out my priorities cupboard…
Getting back to the material side of things, the first reward was going to be the latest Bruno Mars CD, but it’s now Alicia’s book. As you can gather, there are 5 rewards in total with the last one culminating in a trip to? Yes, even we don’t know. We are just going to walk into a travel agent and book a random trip on the spot… You may be thinking that’s a bit extreme? and I would have to agree with you there; but I am going to defend it by saying that we have been married twice (to each other) there are no random third parties that you don’t know about, well at least on my behalf anyway and we haven’t really been on a proper honeymoon. So in fact we are killing two birds with one stone…
FYI: I am greatly concerned about my physical wellbeing, as opposed to what I look like. In fact it’s the driving force/deciding factor for me starting the blog in the first place:)
