So.... This week, my volunteer squad is starting our own in house version of "The Biggest Loser".
As my BMI is above 35 at this time, I know I need to lose weight. Given that we have a full gym at our disposal, as well as a lot of support from some members and each other. I can't see this as being a bad thing.
My initial plan is to cut out soda from my diet, drink at least 64oz of H2O daily.
For food, I plan on concentrating on portion control and trying to eat healthier (less fast food)
Exercise - I'm planning on starting out with 30 minutes aerobic exercise (walking/jogging) daily. I've been trying to do this, but haven't been as compliant as I should be.
As of this week, I actually will be living in an apartment at the Squad. I'll have a rather full gym in the building at my disposal 24x7, and 2 of my roomates are also participating in the contest (and the 3rd roomate is helping run it) - so I should have some support there.
So... does this sound like a start? Can anyone recommend anything else?
