I went to my doctor yesterday and my weight was 320. I just weighed myself on my home scale and I’m 310. At this point what is important is that I keep track of the loss – and worry about what my final weight is down the line.
I’m going to make Friday Mornings my at-home weighing time. I’m not expecting any loss this first week since, to be honest, I just didn’t plan for it. Over the next two weeks I’m going to work on some recipes, seeing if I can figure out how to cook a decent chicken breast, and then, on July 1, 2008 I’m going to make the commitment to this new way of eating. Yeah, I know it’s just an excuse, but atleast I’m honest about it.
My longterm goal is to get under 200. Right now I want to lose 11 pounds and get under 300 on my scale. After that I’ll set another goal. I need to do some excercise which for me is walking. I’ll start with 5 minutes in the morning and afternoon and eventually work up to half an hour once a day.
