I blog about many things some close to my heart and some far away. Today is the day I talk about two of the numbers above -
228 is what the scale said yesterday. 149.59 (err 150) is what I would like it to say. I told J that my goal was a 10% reduction in body weight by the end of June. That roughly gives me 3 months to loose 23 pounds. I am sure that we are all on the eternal look out for the best diet out there. Well, in my search I found this great article . What is says really isnt that spectacular. Eat less or exercise more but choose one or both of those to create a calorie deficit. With said deficit will come weight loss. If I put my numbers out there, they are staggering so lets see the best way to slice and dice this.
Number of calories required to be burned or eliminated:
Goal weight - 273,000! 10% weight 98,000
Pounds lost per week: Goal Weight - 9 months 10% weight - 2.15 (June EOM)
Months at 10 lbs each: Goal Weight - 8 months 10% weight - 3
Workouts: 4-5 days a week for both. Gotta increase that deficit.
Exhaustion at night: All the time now and it is only day 3!
Support: That is where i am counting on all my friends, family and blog readers to chime on in and support me as I try to get my body back.

Good luck!
Just remember there will be fluctuations - with your cycle, with muscle mass, with plateauing.
Thanks Jeanie! Keep telling me that when I hit that plateu.
Keep up the good work and don't get discouraged. I wish you were here you could walk with Colin and I every night.
