Well I certainly need to. My face has got fat- I have a pad of fat down each side of my face that I can see will turn to jowls if I do nothing. My thighs are huge and my middle has expanded so that I look like a dumpling. Oh yeh, and my butt does look big in this- in fact in everything!
So what to do. I bought a Wii fit, which is great when I do it. But I always forget. So new resolution- 30 minutes on this every day. And the dog- I need to take her on a LONG walk every day, not just a couple of quick "round the blocks". (she gets her exercise as other people walk her as well). I always vow to do this, but then I get on my computer and start working and before I know it, it's time to go and pick the kids up, then it's time to make dinner- then homework help, then bedtime, then- well another day with no exercise.
I'm also going to try this cereal diet- a bowl for two mealtimes everyday for- how many weeks? Not sure, I'll check. But this seems doable. I don't know how much weight I want to lose. I just know that I need to slim my butt, thighs, stomach and face- so whatever I have lost when I do these things, is what I have to lose- if that makes sense! I've read that losing 2lbs a week is achievable, so I'll aim for that. I know that cereal alone won't do it. I need to make sure that I don't snack on junk in between times, and that I do some meaningful exercise. It won't be easy.
Don't have any specific clothes I want to get into. No plans for the beach this year, so not worried about the bikini. Would love to just get rid of the excess weight so that clothes hang nicely and that I don't have any rolls of fat hanging over my jeans! I also want to feel a little more comfortable when I'm throwing my parties over summer. I don't want to feel self-conscious in my summer dresses, or cropped pants.
Well here it goes. Day One toward my new look. I'll post here every day as an incentive to actually stick to it. Wish me luck.
